    Pressure Signs?

    Actually I am using standard CCI 200 primers. I didn’t pick up on that in the load data. 250’s woukd have made my problem even worse, no?

    Pressure Signs?

    It’s an X-Caliber barrel chambered using Arne Brennan’s dimensions for the cartridge. I don’t have the specs in front of me but they are listed supplier (1 of 2) for the cartridge. I’ll see what I can find. Powder charges were individually weighed using a RCBS electronic scale calibrated before...

    Pressure Signs?

    Thanks all. Just looking for a little clarity. Would backing off 2.0 gr and figuring out minimum operating gas be a good start and only they begin to increase powder charge in .2gr increments looking for pressure signs? I’m trying to avoid having multiple variables changing at the same time.

    Pressure Signs?

    Well thank goodness I wasnt batting 1.000 that day! Considering I was at the starting point of the published load data and encountered the above pictured issues. By how much would it be advisable to reduce? 2.0gr? Below is load data from 375Raptor DOT com Sierra 300 Grain Game King – 2.715...

    Pressure Signs?

    I do have an superlative arms adjustable gas block so I can slow down the gas. It’s pretty much wide open right now. These cases are from my inaugural range trip with this trifle so there is definite tuning needed.

    Once fired brass accuracy

    I would give the brass one last ride and leave it lay once fired. If the primers arent literally falling out you will be OK. I made the same mistake as you, ie spending time developing a great load using FC brass only to discover for myself how crappy it really is. Now if I buy or reload FC its...

    Pressure Signs?

    Can someone please take a look at these primers / headstamp and give me an opinion on possible pressure issues, please. Load is 38.7 gr of 10x with 300gr Sierra Game King fired out of my .375 Raptor SBR. 38.5gr is the suggested starting charge with 40.5gr being the max charge. Bolt is dual...

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    Thank you sir. Just ordered one $789 plus $8 shipping. Fantatstic deal. Now just gotta add optics, mount, mags, etc....... This is where it gets pricey!! But hey, at least the rifle itself was a great price. At least thats the arguement I will make with the household CFO!!

    As far as I know the .223 RPR was discontinued prior to gen 3 being released.

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    Thanks. Just did. They are $850 with a set of free rings, which I wouldnt use. I think grabagun is cheapest I have seen so far. Going to see if my local gun guy can get me something in the ballpark. Like to try to support him when possible.

    Attn: Remington 700 Owners

    Not exactly. According to the article, you need to send your rifles to them for them to swap out the triggers and ship them back. Yeah, I am not doing that either

    Ruger Precision Rifle Discussion

    Without reading 50 pages, can someone tell me why the .223 RPR went away? I am in the market for a .223 trainer and the RPR with its fast twist and long mags at a great price seems to have checked alot of my boxes. Now I cant find one.

    AR-15 Reloading Frustrations

    I have about 40 rounds loaded so having anything custom machines won’t make any financial sense. I will run the rest of the brass I bought thru my full size small base resizing die and do all the same steps I do for my bolt guns. Essentially treating the brass as range pick ups

    AR-15 Reloading Frustrations

    Thank you Gentlemen. I tried to save some time by buying and paying for what I thought would save me some valuable time. Turns out all it did was waste my money, time and components.

    AR-15 Reloading Frustrations

    So I have been reloading for bolt action for a couple years with decent success. Earlier this year I decided to start reloading for match quality .223 ammo for my SPR. To say its been frustrating would be a huge understatement. I am about to say to hell with it and just buy Prime or Black Hills...

    Range Report Labradar

    I am curious if there have been any improvements in durability of the LR or any updates to either unit? I am considering a Chronograph purchase but really dont know which direction to go. My concern with the MS is I need to use it on several short barrel guns where no barrel extends beyond the...
