    401K down 15%, Advice?

    Ride it out. Don't panic and sell. If you sell now you have locked your loss in. Right now its just numbers on a paper. (or a computer screen) I'm not an expert, but I've been through these for 40+ years. They have always come back. It wouldn't be a bad strategy to increase you contribution...

    .308 NATIONAL MATCH BRASS????

    I like NM brass and have found it to be pretty consistent. The 40cent price that 918v posted seems to be about right. If you sell all 500 as a lot you might discount that price a little. Post them at that price and go lower if they don't move.

    Is this really what to expect from Lapua brass?

    I've had a few dinged necks in about every box that I've ever bought. But that picture shows more than normal. But I don't see any that are damaged enough to effect the case life. It doesn't bother me because I resize every new case that I load.

    Before making a suggestion I would like to know more about your rifle and rest/bags. .4 is exceptional for an off the shelf factory rifle.

    Dad was a radio operator in Korea. He carried a 50# (if I remember correctly) radio on his back, along with an M-2 Carbine. He was later offered a position on a tank crew. He turned it down, calling it a steel coffin. He would never talk much about the war but I remember that comment.

    Sorry for your loss. Think of your Dad when you are shooting this. I'm moving in a couple of weeks and I'm getting rid of a lot of stuff and plan to better organize the stuff that I keep. Mostly to spare the surviving Family members from dealing with my stuff.

    Road Rage shootings

    Stupid people driving and being distracted by their cell phones, make up, kids, ect can bring out the worst in people. Add in the entitled class and things can get explosive. When we go to the city I'll let people in heavy traffic get in line ahead of me and the people behind me honk and...

    Newbie help - case rim tore off

    Lots of good suggestions above, and some not so good. Buy a stuck case remover to get the case out of your die and review your lube procedures. You can assemble the stuff to remove the case from the die but by buying a kit you get it in a die box which makes it easier to store and keep up with.

    *OOPS! Mixed 1 lb. of RL23 & H4350... Will I blow my face off?

    I would scrap it and chalk it up to a lesson being learned. It not worth the risk to yourself and others. Not to beat up on you, but this would be a good time to review your procedures. The old rule of one type of powder on the bench at a time is a good one. Think, stay focused and avoid...
