    New handloader, please help diagnose!

    Re: New handloader, please help diagnose! Hello BM11, While dialing in a few rifles I have had the same problems. It appears your prep is adequate, so what I do is, throw away that piece of brass associated with the flier. Maybe the neck is out of round, needs to be turned. This has helped...

    .38/.357 Reloading

    Re: .38/.357 Reloading Hello LW, I realize many shooters load down their 357's, but I dont see the point. A person can effectively practice with a .22 for the aiming practice. That person needs to get comfortable with the real recoil, if he/she wants to excell with their shooting. Shoot...

    POI Question

    Re: POI Question Duckslayer, I agree with you. Almost every rifle I reload for prints a different poi for any given powder charge, or bullet combo. While load testing, I just shoot for the group, and don't care where the poi is. After deciding what shoots the tightest group, I adjust my...

    87 gr Vmax for varmints

    Re: 6mm - 87 grain vmax for varmints Hello D, I have an old 788 in 6mm and 1t shoots awesome with 80 SBT's. That combo was my woodchuck and coyote rifle until the 204 came along. The 87's in my opinion are more suited for deer. But if they shoot accurately in your rifle, by all means use...

    Re: I'm no Marksman hello, Marksman If i'm understanding your post correctly, you are looking for a 308 rifle capable of 1.5 m.o.a. at 100 yrds? No matter what you here, at the price range you stated a savage (stevens) will meet that bill. I went through the same situation with a...
