    Thoughts on the 85.5gr Berger hybrids?

    And that is what I'm looking for... some form of anecdotal experience. Rifle is a 1:7 with a longer throat.. probably why the 77s haven't worked well for me. @craigos mind sharing what you're stuffing behind them?

    Thoughts on the 85.5gr Berger hybrids?

    Rather than start another thread, I have a question regarding running these vs the 90 gr VLDs in a .223 bolt gun. I have been using 77 SMKs as well as 77 grain factory ammunition, but I have not been happy with the results. I have 200 of the 85.5s coming but after doing some further research...

    How tall is your reloading bench?

    I used regular cabinet bases for mine... then the top is 4 ply 9/16 inch plywood, screwed and glued from the bottom, trimmed around the outer edges, sanded and coated. Most of my reloading is done from the standing position. Forster Coax on an inline mount, RCBS Rock Chucker on an inline...

    A crash course on loading?

    @BuildingConceptsllc I posted this elsewhere so I'll copy it into here.. some of it is specific to the questions the other guy asked.. but you should get the gist. I have owned several variants of RCBS single stage and have a Lee single stage. I worked my way up to a Forster Coax and I see...

    Vortex LHT vs. Trijicon Tenmile HX

    I have not handled the Trijicon. But I did put the LHT on a 300 Norma Magnum for an elk rifle. It holds true, positive adjustments on the locking turret, I can get to 1k with the 6 mil elevation turret on the Norma, and it is nice and clear. Return to zero functions as it should. The...

    Reloading Equipment Very new to reloading looking to buy

    I have owned several variants of RCBS single stage and have a Lee single stage. I worked my way up to a Forster Coax and I see that is what you have settled on. I think you're on the right track there. A second single stage might be relevant later on if you decide to pull bullets, etc...

    BREN gun semi-auto build...vintage sniper? 1.5 MOA groups. VIDEO UP!

    Beautiful piece. Not familiar with gun laws in New Zealand... did they allow you to possess it as an auto? Also, after that shooting in 2019 how does this stand? I recall them passing a law by a huge margin for the removal of all military arms.
