      R700 Internal Action Wrench

      Does anyone have a R700 or clone internal action wrench I could borrow? I am going to be trying a different barrel on a rifle that needs an internal wrench and I only have an external wrench for the 700 action.

      RCBS Chargemaster 1500 Question

      I am looking at getting a Chargemaster 1500 and it is barely used (reportedly 3 times) but has been sitting on a shelf in the original packaging for a few years. Is there a shelf life on these units? Is the sitting something I should be worried about? How long should these last? I have been...

      Progressive vs Turret Press Accuracy

      I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a new reloading press. I have been using a rockchucker for 2 to 3 years. I only reload rifle rounds. My question is will a Redding turret press be able to create more consistent ammunition vs a Hornady LnL or a Dillon 750? Is it worth the extra money...

      Salt Bath Annealing

      Has anyone tried salt bath annealing? Seems pretty interesting, more consistent than annealing w a torch, and is pretty cheap. I am also interested as I would feel more comfortable using the salt bath inside vs a torch. Does anyone know where to buy annealing salts in the area?

      6.5 Creedmoor Over-pressure

      I was shooting my 6.5 Creedmoor on Sunday and had a few primers break. :banghead: This was the 3rd time using the brass. My load was Hornady 147 gr ELD-match bullets, 38.5 gr H4350, Starline SR brass, and WSR primers. I am seating the bullets slightly long so that I am 0.02 in off the lands. I...

      Purchasing shotgun for my wife

      I am looking at purchasing a shotgun for my wife as she is petite and the range we go to does not have anything her size for rent. I will be keeping it locked in my safe where I will be the only one with access to it. Is it considered a straw purchase if I am the one purchasing and putting my...

      Multiple Barrels for Remington 700 Action

      Random thought popped into my head so I figured I would ask, if I were to take a Remington 700 and utilize a remage barrel system, could I frequently replace barrels back and forth between calibers? Say one day I wanted to shoot 308, I install that barrel and headspace it, make sure I am using...

      Different load data in Hornady vs Lyman books

      I have a Lyman and a Hornady reloading book. I am typically reloading 223 and noticed the the two books do not line up with the powder loads at all. I am specifically looking at the 75 gr BTHP round utilizing Varget powder. The Hornady book indicates a starting load of 19.4 gr and a max of 23.5...

      Hornady Powder Dispenser VS RCBS Chargemaster

      I saw that the Hornady Powder Dispenser is on sale for $150 and the RCBS Chargemaster is on sale with deals for $200. Does anyone have any experience with the Hornady Unit? I have seen mainly good reviews for the RCBS unit (including the straw trick) and was wondering if it is worth the extra money?

      Newbie Bullet Seating Question

      Hello everyone, I am just getting into reloading .223 and am getting odd results when I am seating bullets. I am getting OALs that vary up to 0.01" over 20 cases when I am using my Hornady seating die (from the custom grade reloading die set) :banghead:. I am usually getting OALs within...
