What I cant find is any way to effectively correct when i have one or two thousandths of runout AFTER the reloading process in my finished round. If I have missed any obvious threads that cover...

    MAXIMIZING YOUR RANGE FINDER Returns

    I was out shooting steel and could get good ranges on 500 and 600 yard targets but once I tried to range out to our target at 1250yrds (well inside the posted 1200 to 3400 yard capabilities on SIGs site. It was bright sun and the target was about 1 moa in size at that range (steel silhouette)...

    NRL22 Comps?

    I have scoped out the NRL 22 site and there is not a real great way to find NRL 22 comps. There are links to clubs that host them but the Club sites some are OK and the rest are pretty lackluster. Where do you guys go to find out about comps ie: dates and locations etc and who to contact? Is...

    Hunting & Fishing tanned hides

    I have 7 or 8 coyote hides I got this season. I want to get them fleshed and tanned so I can start making things with them. Who would you guys use? What's a fair going rate? I have seen (googled) posted anywhere from $15 to $120 per hide. Anywhere in Southern California flesh and tan hides?

    BC Data....truth or dare

    How reliable is the BC data printed on the Berger Bullets box? Is there a bit of "marketing" built into that number? The reason I ask is I did a prone competition a few weeks ago and I trued up my muzzle velocity using my dope at 600 yards in Ballistics ARC. Once I did that none of my dope...

    Berger Boolits

    HI guys, I have been shooting and reloading for a bit but want to really take it up a notch. I have found that in my custom 300wm, 210g Berger bullets work well over 68.9g of RL22. I have been loading the rounds to .005" off my lands. I have heard that Berger bullets like to be jammed into...

    Annealing: Salt Bath vs Flame/Torch method

    I have been doing a fair bit of research on building a bench top annealing machine. There are plenty of DIY ways to do it and I had all the parts researched and decided on. Right before I was about to purchase them all on amazon I read about Salt bath annealing. What are the pros and cons of...

    22 hornet loads

    What is the hottest you can run a 22 hornet? I have this crazy thought that I want to hunt coyote with it. Mind you I live and hunt out west so 300 to 500 yard shots is fairly common. What sort of range can you expect out of that round? What is the heaviest round you can run and get some decent...

    Help with sizing

    So I bought some once fired Norma brass for my 300 wm from a member here on the hide. I have full length sized it and it does not chamber (it chambers but barely and only after some force is applied to the bolt handle...certainly not ideal). I got out my calipers and checked it for SAAMI spec...
