    Giraud power trimmer questions

    Considering purchasing a Giraud power trimmer but have a few questions. First and foremost I know the quality of the product, that’s not in question.

    Forming Brass into a Different Cartridge How-To, Please.

    So I am taking the plunge and getting into .375 Raptor which is .308 brass reformed into .375 and trimmed down. Bullets are from 270gr to 350gr and will feed from slightly modified PMags in DPMS format AR10 rifles. My question is about opening up the case necks from .308 to .375. I have...

    .308 145gr Tracer Load?

    I have a bunch of FC brass that has 1 more load in them before being left for dead. I want to load up some 145gr orange tipped tracer pulls I found. I weighed a couple and they are far from consistent +- .4 gr so my accuracy expectation has been adjusted according but having said that I would...

    Forster or RCBS Collet Bullet Puller or Hornady Cam-Lock Bullet Puller

    I use the hornady cam lock and it works very well. I leave it threaded into one of the positions on my old Lyman turret press but when not in use Ieave the handle up so there is no pressure on the collet.

    175 SMK v 178 ELD-M: Length Question - Ogive and Mag Length.

    Ok, I need to procure a tool to measure the chamber/leade and see how long I can actually load either bullet and I will do so, however, that doesnt change the fact that I am still limited by magazine length. I agree with you and have found SMK to like,or at least tolerate, some jump (.05"). I...

    Rookie mistake fix?

    Hmmm.... Learn something new every time I visit this forum. I didnt even know you could deprime an unfired primer. I fired it would go off then the pin compressed the anvil trying to push it back out. I have either tossed the case if it was cheap brass or just fired the primed case and then...

    178 ELD Match, Varget, 308 Win

    Thanks Dave. I am at about 600' above sea level but my AIAT has a 17" .308 barrel. I wanted to keep it short so I will probably give up some velocity. How much, I have no idea. Ever since I saw the video of LL pounding steel at 1000y with his Gladious with a 16" barrel, I have wanted a short...

    Question for those that wet tumble

    I universal decap than wet tumble. Then I size and wet tumble to get the lube off. I wish there was a wah to only go thru the hassle of tumbling 1 time but wiping lube off by hand for a couple hundred cases sucks even more.
