    Super weird issues on my .300 Norma Mag reloads

    Have always wondered about the S&B primers. Now I know. I also had a similar experience was Wolf LR Magnum Primers. I usually use them for smaller cartridges. One day I decided to test it out on a WM. They worked, but had a few hang fires. But at least they fired. While they are great...

    Time pieces/Watches?

    Now that is what you call a conversation starter.

    Any updates on 6.8 X 51

    Sounds about right for Sig. Make some fancy weapon or product, market the shit out of it/buy off some purchasers and approvers, deliver the goods and let the end user be the guinea pigs.

    212eldx in .308 hybrid cases?

    Guess which powder is which. One pile of powder is the residue left in the hybrid cases. The other is a common powder, not so hard to find. I am almost positive they are the same powder.

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    I liked the old plastic boxes better. Lapua always had 101 cases in there. They knew one had to be sacrificed to the Aztec gods. Got my brother to print me a 100 round reloading tray. Should have done this way sooner.

    Current Surgeon vs AI Action

    I have never heard of a NF with shit build quality. I am sure there is probably some out there, but NF is a solid scope.

    Is the March FX 4.5-28x52 my new ZCO?

    Looked through a Gen 2 March 5-42 in the wild the other week. It's impressive. Was debating on a ZCO, or a TT. The March Gen 2 will run with both easily.

    Current Surgeon vs AI Action

    Locking turrets are more user preference. I personally can't stand them and always leave all the scopes that I have had them unlocked. The whole ocular ring moving on the NF isn't even that big of a deal. It's easy enough to move on the NF, I really don't even think about it anymore...

    Strongest bore cleaner available

    Did you look through the bore with a bore scope? I have used just about most of the stuff mentioned in this thread. I could get the barrels clean, but to get it looking "new" clean with no carbon in the lands. I have never been able to do.... nor will I waste an hour to keep on scrubbing.

    212eldx in .308 hybrid cases?

    Fireformed 25 cases. These were just normal loads, 44gr Varget 178ELDMs. Compared the same load with Lapua brass. Shot about the same size group, but was 25FPS slower. Did check case volume when I got home, 56.8gr vs 57.1gr of water. Didn't have any kinds of issues in the first 5 rounds and...

    Chasing accuracy with proof barrel.

    If your SD is that low, tune with the seating depths. All the components you have are proven to work well in the CM. I personally shoot 42.5gr H4350 with the 140ELDMs at 2800ish. TBH, some of those groups aren't bad. Just tune with seating depth and you should be fine.

    Chasing accuracy with proof barrel.

    Have you tried shooting without the suppressor? I have had a few barrels that wouldn't group with whatever suppressor, brake. I have even had it to where a gun would stop grouping in the middle of a session. After many rounds and parts swapping, found out it was the suppressor. Sent it back...

    If Overton Windex made a movie

    One thing they will never get right in movies. It could be a 1000, 1 mile, 2 mile shot. It will always show the target like he is at 100 yards away on with a 25x scope.

    The SH reloading mantra: We start at book max and work our way up! 😂 Fukushima then we work our way up to Chernobyl loads.

    Powder Dispensing Accuracy & Match Dies

    Point still stands. You don't need the .02 of a grain accuracy. I very much doubt anyone could shoot the difference if they were given loads blind. There are just too many variables to worry about that fine of a resolution in charges.

    Powder Dispensing Accuracy & Match Dies

    Just food for thought, benchresters throw their powder charges and they can shoot in the teens. To the kernel accuracy is not going to magically cut your groups or SD in half. Too many other variables in reloading and shooting would be more important then .02 of a grain accuracy.
