    After taking my brass out of the corn media I went to go resize all the brass and found this cracked case mouth. All of this brass was nosler factory loads. Have yall seen this before?

    Brass organization

    After putting the fingernail polish on the case head I thought it looked thick so I plan on tumbling it and seeing if that thins it out some if not I may go over it with some super fine sand paper

    Brass organization

    So I have stumbled upon a predicament, I have 2 rifles of the same caliber and my dad has the same caliber, that I also reload for. I spent a year and a half away from my reloading gear due to work. So I don't know which brass goes to which rifle anymore. I'm sure it doesn't make a huge...

    Barnes vs Berger after the shot performance.

    I have killed a few deer with bergers and it was quite devastating. If you go that route I don't recommend shoulder shots up close. I haven't used barnes yet but I do have some loaded up to try.

    243AI

    I heard rumors that 243AI isn't as hard on barrels as the normal 243 but either way I'm not too worried about the barrels just wanted something fun to shoot out at 500yds. And see how small I can get groups.

    Thoughts?

    It makes sense in multiple ways that Steve would want to appear in the video. As someone who cares about the hunting world, his business and nature it only makes sense. In all fairness I thought about purchasing a box of hammers that I've been holding in my cart for a very long time

    Thoughts?

    Thanks for posting the video, I have been on the fence of switching over to lead bullets and the hammer bullets. I just have so many lead bullets left over seems expensive to make the switch, but looks like I may start switching my rifles over to copper this year

    Sample packs?

    How do you guys reload sample packs for data? Do you load up a few sets like 3 rounds at 50gr 3 more at 50.5 etc... or just load up the whole pack looking for peak velocity.. also do y'all adjust seating depth or pick a seating depth that you trust with a similar bullet? I've been hesitant to...

    Any long time Vihtavuori users?

    I've used Vihtavuori in 2 rifles I found a couple pounds cheap at the start of 2020, I wasn't getting the velocities I wanted in the .308 but in the 6.5 I got good results. I've loaded a couple hundred rounds with the N550 haven't noticed any erosion problems

    Liver Jerky

    So I made the liver jerky today I coated both sides in sea salt and pepper, let that sit overnight and then dehydrated them for about 8 hours at 165. To be honest it tastes like fried liver. So if you like liver I recommend giving it a shot worst case you have a high quality and free dog treats.

    What's your comfort level reloading for others?

    I just reload for myself and my dad and we use his rifles when we do load development, that we can measure everything and have everything customized to the individual rifle.

    6.5 PRC HELP!

    I would take a look at your chronograph, I don't think it's your reloads.

    Looking to start a full Custom this year and/or next year. Aside from cartridge, what brand action, stock and barrel can yall recommend? Local gunsmith recommends Defiance action with a Rock Creek barrel. I am looking at a foundations stock. Looking at doing PRS, maybe F Class. I prefer more...
