    Rifle Scopes SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more!

    Re: SWFA-SS Tax Day Group Buy: 1-6, 5-20, and more! Frankly the hardest thing for me has been trying to keep ~ $300 sitting 'liquid'--waiting for this to come in over the last 7 months! Too many tempting toys out there...I couldn't resist and picked up an Atlas bipod yesterday. Now the race...

    Setting up a LCD on a Forster Co-AxJust got a coup

    Re: Setting up a LCD on a Forster Co-AxJust got a coup Thanks guys... I tried it the way you suggested (contrary to Lee's directions) and things seemed to go smoothly. No stripped threads, and the seating was uniform and smooth. Looks like I'm using about 0.002" tension. Don't know how...

    Setting up a LCD on a Forster Co-AxJust got a coup

    Just got a couple of Lee Collet dies for Xmas, and in setting them up, I had a question. Lee gives 2 types of set up directions--those for Lee presses and 'other types of presses that toggle or snap over center'. Which set up option do I choose? The first has you going 1 turn past the shell...

    Brass for a class...

    Re: Brass for a class... I'd call that pretty unanimous--and kind of what my gut was telling me too. Insight3b had a good point...Starting to lose pieces of Lapua would get maddening quick! Now, it looks like the challenge will be to actually LOCATE some Win brass. It is out of stock at...

    Measuring case neck tension

    Re: Measuring case neck tension Thanks Guys...great descriptions and feedback. I get the picture now, and it makes total sense. I know Redding S dies have bushing versions in both FLS and NS dies, but I can only see Forster having a NS bushing die (but sold with 3 bushings included). Does...

    Brass for a class...

    I have been fortunate enough to get the green light from my keeper and will be attending a Rifles Only class this summer. She thinks I'm nuts, but agreed with me that getting some quality instruction is its own reward. That said, I need to come up with 500 rounds of .308 for the class. I of...

    Measuring case neck tension

    I'm now at the point where I'm confident in my knowledge of reloading fundamentals, and have been pretty happy with my results thus far. In taking it to the next level, I feel it is time to start paying attention to neck tension, but I'm not exactly certain how those measurements are being...

    Seat depth for Primer

    Re: Seat depth for Primer I too have only used hand priming tools to date, with no issues. However, I'm interested in trying the priming functionality on my Forster Co-Ax that just got here. From reading how they set it up, it seems a little more precise and uniform. You still wouldn't...

    2012 round count

    Re: 2012 round count Yikes...this thread put some things in perspective. I'm only at about 1300 combined pistol/rifle for the year...excluding rimfire (~500?) Clearly I need to get my priorities straight!

    Chrono's are they worth it?

    Re: Chrono's are they worth it? Competition Electronics Pro Chrono Digital is another one that should be on your short list

    Rifle Scopes How long?

    Incorporating a Lee Collet Die into my process

    Re: Incorporating a Lee Collet Die into my process Thanks Guys...this has really helped me get some more perspective on the matter. I did not know about the service Forster offers. It sounds like a pretty cost-effective thing to do, just because. I'm still getting that LCD, and will pick up...

    Incorporating a Lee Collet Die into my process

    I'm getting a Lee Collet Neck Die in .308 soon (all these ringing endorsements have swayed me), <span style="font-style: italic">and this is potentially silly question</span>. I'm only asking because I have a nice Forster FS die that I use every time in my workflow...and I guess it pains me to...

    Forster Co-Ax + Dillon Strong Mount

    Re: Forster Co-Ax + Dillon Strong Mount That Inline Fabrication stuff is looking pretty nice... Basically the same price too. I see they have some roller handles, both long and short. That seems like a decent ergo improvement. Thank you for sharing that site with me!

    Forster Co-Ax + Dillon Strong Mount

    I just clicked the 'Buy" button at Cabelas...after staring at it for like 3 days. Even though it is on backorder, sometime soon a Co-Ax is heading my way. I still haven't figured out what to tell my Redding T-7 Now the T-7 is sitting in a Dillon Strong Mount and I love it. It fit without...

    Advice on jumping into reloading?

    Re: Advice on jumping into reloading? I started off with the same mega-RCBS kit Milo-2 linked to a few years back. It is true that you find new/different/better items to make up your overall workflow...but that kit really was pretty nice to start off with. Even though it was pricey (I think I...

    Torque specs for 455 + Manners T4?

    Re: Torque specs for 455 + Manners T4? Thanks Guys...I knew I was in the ball park. I'll start off at 25 in/lbs to start, even on both bolts, and see how she goes. I can play upward a little if things seem wonky.

    Torque specs for 455 + Manners T4?

    I will be installing a Karsten cheek rest on this rifle, and to do so, I'll need to take the action out. Why? I'm going to use a nice drill press at work, and wouldn't you know it...they tend to frown on bringing actual firearms into the facility Anyway, for the life of me I can't seem to...
