    Anyone have a lead on powder/primers?

    If you live near Cabelas / Bass Pro, they seem to have some IMR, big and small containers. Have them ship-to-store and save the Haz-Mat fee

    New brass vs Used brass?

    Received a box of new brass yesterday. Free shipping at Midway is very inviting. Headed to the range with them using the cheap stuff at short range on life size paper deer targets (now they’re fire formed😊). Load work-up all year off of a bench really messes with me come hunting season if i...

    Too funny not to share.

    I messed with the LR’s in my 270 and never got a 100y group that i was happy with. The Berger twist rate calculator puts it as marginally stable with 10” twist, probably due to its length (guessing). I’m headed back to 150 Partitions or 140 regular Accubonds as well.

    New brass vs Used brass?

    Neck tension on the new brass may be greater. And “used” brass, no telling how many times its been fired or sized, neck wall thickness, etc. lots of variables.

    Another Bino Opinion Thread

    Q, I can add $0.02. You probably already know that to a certain extent, you get what you pay for. Buy as much as you can afford. It’ll help keep you from looking toward your next upgrade.

    Caffeine and accuracy

    This is a great thought. There are a lot of responses here, but if you get to this one, hear me out. I’m an aerospace engineer, and anytime theres a problem with an engine, we’re required to perform a “robust root cause analysis”. Often times they’re very complex problems with no obvious...

    Garage rebuild with man room/apartment on second story

    Consider expanding the footprint to 30x30 to give yourself a bit of room to move in the garage. Perhaps also a single 8’ overhead door. That pillar in the middle is always in the way. Thats my 0.02. 😊

    Scope mounting help.

    Ok hear me out. If the front holes were misdrilled, that is, not quite at the 12:00 position, the ring would be off of 12:00, and the a is of the front ring would not be aligned with that of the rear ring. That would be the only way for the front mount to be so far off level as compared to the...

    which did set to buy?

    For me, I started with FL sizer for older brass and i opted for a micrometer seater because i knew I’d be incrementing seating depth. I’ve since added the bushing die for use with my rifle’s fire formed brass. Hornady has a micrometer that can be added to their standard seater, dunno about RCBS.

    Optics Best Value and Key Price Points

    Hi tomengineer, I’m Pete Engineer. I too fall victim to analysis paralysis when faced with multiple options. I do love great optics though and I’ve found that you get what you pay for. That point of diminishing returns that you mention is an elusive point to find and somewhere, that path...

    Sampler pack question

    Thanks for the formula, my current one is similar. I couldnt figure a way to make 12 bullets work. Seems obvious why when you lay it out like that. Thank you again

    Sampler pack question

    Precision Reloading.com has sampler packs of bullets in packs of 12. Can you learn anything from 12 shots? Looking for thoughts on how to make get the most learning from a 12 shot lot. 1. max cartridge length, 3 shot groups at min, middle, and max powder charge? 2. Middle powder charge, 3...

    Judgement call

    I cant believe Tikka (Sako) would ever design an action that was so sensitive that you COULD blow yourself up unless you’re grossly negligent, which i cant imagine you are. If your velocity is pretty consistent, I’d vary the seating depth in both directions to see what it likes. I use 0.010”...

    H4831SC for 270 Win

    Just bought a pound of H4831 for my 270, the only jar i found in over 100 miles. Hard to justify $26 to ship it.

    Cabela’s stopped selling game calls?

    Downhill since the merger. I’ve expressed my 0.02 to a few employees there. IMO Bass Pro is just a carbon copy.

    Another poacher a little bit poorer now.

    I agree whole heartedly. I think all wildlife crimes are ill-punished.
