    LE Wilson Case Trimmer Question

    I bought one along with the 0.308 “new brass” body holder. I resize with a Redding Type S full length sizing die but the brass won’t slide into the body holder far enough to stick out the other side. I tried a loaded new factory federal round and it slid all the way through like it was...

    Redding T-7 Turret Press Question

    question for anyone with precision loading experience on this press.....because you are pressing the ram into the outer perimeter of the turret, do you get any variation when bumping shoulders or seating from the turret "flexing"?

    “Precision” AR accuracy expectations?

    I know there are a lot of influencing factors, shooter skills, barrel quality, ammo quality, etc....but, if one were to build a very high quality AR, maybe 6.5CM or .308 as example, and using high quality ammo, what is a realistic expectation for accuracy. Is sub MOA possible or difficult to...

    Quest for the best neck tension and concentricity.....input please

    First let me say I am pretty new to reloading so give me a bit of a pass if I mess this up! Second, in the name of searching for the most accurate rounds possible, and a willingness to buy whatever equipment and take the extra time needed, humor me for a minute! Thinkin through how to achieve...

    Rifle Scopes Thoughts on NF SHV vs Leupold VX5HD

    Both have side focus. Leupold is 3-15x44 NF is 2-10x42 Both are right at 20oz (this is for a “lightweight” mountain “elk” hunting rifle, so weight is key!) Leupold has zero locking elevation turret, NF is capped Both are right around 900.00 Leupold wins on paper in almost every category, so why...

    Thinking about purchasing this gun. I have a .300WM and a .308, both with Manners EH1 stocks and Timney triggers. I thought with the butt end of the Manners T4 stock on this little .22 basicallly being the same as my other two EH1s, and with the ability to purchase a Timney trigger set at the...

    Manners EH1 with Bartlein Barrel Pic

    Anyone have an EH1 stock with a Bartlein #2 contour barrel? I would love a pic of the barrel out near the end of the stock to see how odd it looks with such a “fat” stock and skinny barrel contour.

    .308 ELD Match 168gr vs Sierra Matchking 168gr data help

    I am relatively new to loading, I have a .308 and to get started and to be easy, I duplicated the 168gr federal gold medal match ammo with the 168gr Sierra MK bullets, which is 42.8gr of IMR 4064. Not the best bullet, probably could push it harder, maybe a better powder, but it shoots very...
