Very nice jobI built a sliding plate for the amp annealer and amp-mate.
It slides on T-Track on table rollers so I can move it out of the way when not in use.

If you don't mind, what does a setup like that cost? I really like it.
And, NO,not asking for a friend. FM
Any results to report? I have plenty of 400’s, but no 450’s. I really hoping you had good results!Running a primer comparison test with a 6BR. Left, Rem 7.5, right CCI 400.

Past data showed excellent results with CCI BR 4's, they are all gone. Plenty of 7.5 and 400's on hand, looking for accuracy results without adding another component to the to the inventory. Burning H322, again, plenty on hand.
Was the weight for recoil reduction? Balance on the bag? Both? Have you shot with it yet?I made a removeable weight that fits the slot in the fore-end below the barrel. I also stitched together a quick adjustbale rifle sling using 1.25" webbing and Grovtec HD QD swivels/flushcups.
For the local long range steel matches, there's no penalty for heavy rifles. They're always supported somehow, off bags, or bipod/tripod, and more mass reduces recoil. The balance point doesn't really matter, so long as it's not too out of whack.Was the weight for recoil reduction? Balance on the bag? Both? Have you shot with it yet?
That many? Or so few that you have to make sure you didn't lose one?just counting my primer stock..... again.....
OK nice flex with your 8lbs of N570I finally got all of my precision and finalizing work inside, pretty happy with it. Not being in the garage the temperature is now controlled inside and the A&D FX120i responds much better now. Not to mention the dust has cut down drastically. It's also nice being warm in the winter, that little buddy heater could only do so much.

I swear it’s always thereOK nice flex with your 8lbs of N570
The irony is that he doesn't have any primers to light it. It's just expensive, rarified Finnish fertilizer.OK nice flex with your 8lbs of N570
Good stuff. only comment is don't ignore the 2-shot flat spot around 83gr. Maybe build for that too.Inspired by rustyinbend I decided to analyze my ladder as well early this morning before work. The shot count was at 60 when I started this and ended at 110.
I'm under the theory from Adam MacDonald at AutoTrickler...
- Group size is primarily dependent on seating depth (jump)
- Velocity SD is primarily dependent on the powder charge
- Group shape is a statistical illusion. Size is all that matters.
I'm very tempted to do the test again to get more data points on once fired brass. But for now, it looks like a nice node at 82.0 grains. Onto seating depth...
Primers are flat and an ejector mark. Brass won’t last very long running it that hot.Thanks, I did see some pressure around 83.1 but I'm not sure if it's too much to worry about it. The ejector swipes happen on my dummy rounds but ejector marks, half moons, (please correct me if my language is wrong) started to show. Not sure if it's because virgin brass needed to be fire formed to better fit the chamber or not.
This is 83.1 then 83.4 respectively, definitely going to start a separate thread.

I've been taught that once you see the ejector circle ... it's time to stop.Thanks, I did see some pressure around 83.1 but I'm not sure if it's too much to worry about it.

BTW ... I always do my testing with brass that's been fired. It takes the "New Brass Bloat Factor" out of the equation.
If it fits it ships.I'm sure you'll love this one, N570 86.0 grains for some pressure testing, little vibration lovin' tonight. I think it might be at capacity?
