I have kept mine black but added 45 degree offset BUIS to mine to accompany my optics. no batteries to wear out and if one dont get em the other will :)

You know whats also bad is I started to reload before this mess 5.56 to practice and learn how to hand load for my 300 blk but I really wasnt saving much like .15 a round where at the time I would be saving .60 a round for blkout but now its crazy I still have enough supplies my 5.56 is only...

Bill have you ever used a neck turning lathe? I am thinking on buying one. Fred

Both my sport bought about a year ago and my 300 bought in January have the A on them.

wow how did that happen? when you tried to seat a projectile?

Is anyone having problems with brass only lasting 3-4 reloadings due to the primer pocket being to loose. Somewhere else(.300) a guy was complaining about reaming out the crimp on LC brass and only getting 3-4 reloads before the pockets are to large to keep the primers from falling out. I...

I am a distance shooter as well I have a nikon 4x24x50 and have just ordered a 45 degree offset BUIS setup for my sport and my 300. my 300 has a Barska 10x40x50 and my 15-22 has a NCstar 4x16x40 that I normally shoot at 100 yards with. The power scope depends on the distance you want to...

WoW thats a good bargain for that scale, I know I couldnt afford one just for hand loading at new prices some of the ones in the books are freaking unreal prices and I dont need to weigh a strand of hair like the ones at work lol :D I agree about Harbor while I was there I also picked up a...

home made Annealing station for brass cases I wanted to keep the 20 lbs propane cylinder and the rotating drill but without holding the trigger down so I went to harbor freight and bought a $17 3/8 drill that is a adjustable variable speed with trigger lock a carriage bolt with a steel sleeve...

That scale looks like what I use in my lab at work :D

I tested my first .300 blackout rounds out today that I hand loaded and the Hornady book says I should be at 2050 and I avg 2030 so I will decrease the COL a little. the Book data says 22 grains of accurate 1680 with 150 grain Hornady round at a COL of 2.220. Mine was 22 grains of accurate 1680...

I have just started reloading my .40 S & W and even the .300 is easy after the 5.56 I am glad I started with this cal first :D

I looked at the price difference when I first bought mine and figured they were the same so why pay more even if it was only a few dollars, so far thats the third screw up I did thinking I would save a few $, the powder scale, pocket cleaner brushes and the hand primer.

Hornady makes a good pocket cleaning tool just be sure the handle come with yours. I switched from RCBS to the Hornady because the wires in the RCBS bend easy and have to be pulled out a lot plus they wear out fast. In this case paying more makes sense as the Hornady will last a lot longer...

edit I didnt know that rifle dies dont chamfer thanks Bill. As far as setting the COL on the die, with the Winchester projectiles I have they vary enough I cant set the nut and run a bunch thru so I took the nut off and marked on the die and rod a location for minimum setting of COL and check...

.300 blk I have finished setting my Dies for the .300 now and have finished 50 tonight. I used the info from the Honrnady book as they used our girl for their data except for the case trim I used the blackout trim as it will not make a difference to me but if anyone else grabbed one of my...

I was sitting in front of the computer watching a movie on Hulu as I was priming, looking up between primes when this one went in smooth and bottomed out then BAM she fired on me. I hold the case with my left hand and sometimes have to turn the shell a little to get her to seat so thats how I...

Great Idea's Bill, My finger went numb holding the drill trigger down to . I was priming my cases last night and one of them went off, I got a slight burn on my palm from it man that scared the @#@# out of me lol. I hand prime I have to load some rounds for the shoot and meet coming up but I...

Bill did you paint the inside of the case or the outside? how hard was it for you to remove the residual templiq? for mine the tumbler didn't do that great of a job. I look forward to the update on how they did after firing them, your method is easier from what it sounds like.

Im on the coast at Havelock :D
