  1. Case Stretch after FL Resize

    When using a die that has an expander ball, using Hornady spray case lube can help a lot with that stretching. Just be sure to spray some into the necks of your cases from each side to help lube that expander ball when it pulls back through.

  2. 7mm Dakota H1000 Help Needed

    Thank you, I do have some 7828 that I can try if the H1000 doesn't work out

  3. 7mm Dakota H1000 Help Needed

    Thank you, that does give me an idea of where to start with the 155gr.

  5. Great American outdoor Group buys Sportsmans

    I hope they dont but I would expect to see Sportsmans Warehouse start using Cabelas favorite marketing trick. They seem to like using a discontinued item that they have very few of (or none of) in stock as the headliner on their sale ads. When you go to purchase the item that they listed in...

  7. 7mm Dakota H1000 Help Needed

    I am about to work up a new load for my 7mm Dakota with a 155gr bullet. With recent powder shortages, I am out of Retumbo which has been my go to powder for this rifle. The next best thing i have to work with is H1000 but i cannot find any load data for the H1000 and 150-155gr bullets. Does...

  8. Shotguns which semi auto ?

  9. Shotguns which semi auto ?

    I am a big fan of old Browning A-5's and use them for nearly all of my shotgun needs. If I were to buy a new auto, it would be a Beretta. The Benelli's feel good in my hands and do shoulder well but I cannot stand that soft closing bolt. I have heard the "Benelli click" way too many times from...

  10. What Ya' Smokin'

    I usually try a different one or two when i buy them but i cant find one that i like better than a Partagas

  11. Galled barrel in action

    I am no gunsmith but recently got a rusty fitting out of an exhaust manifold with a method similar to what Alex describes. I heated the manifold (not the fitting) with a Mapp torch and then touched the base of the fitting with a birthday candle. The hot manifold sucked the melted wax into the...

  12. 6mm Rem and Bergers???

    I have shot quite a few whitetails now with the 105 Hybrid Target bullets from a 243 AI with great results. I am shooting them at 3160fps. I cannot speak to the long range performance of these bullets on game as I have not used them beyond 300yds on deer but I have been very happy with the...

  13. Do you clean brass every loading?

    I run a nylon brush into the neck each time I reload and wipe with a rag with brake cleaner on it before and after sizing. The first time is to keep the dirt and crud out of my sizing die and the second time removes the sizing lube.

  14. Picking out a classic carry piece

    LCP in pocket holster is a great option for maximum concealability. I have used one for years when concealment is priority. A .380 auto is pretty far down on my list of what I would prefer to have in my hand in a defense situation but it sure beats having nothing but a pocket knife and fistful...

  15. Picking out a classic carry piece

    I agree. I thought I liked the Ruger LCR until I picked up a S&W 642-1. Perfect for ladies and men alike. I have large hands and it is by far the most comfortable subcompact that I have held.

  16. Do you think this is enough for ground squirrels?

    I wonder how well those Blitzkings can hold together at that kind of velocity. I was getting some bullet failures out of my 204 Ruger with 39gr Blitzkings at 3,850fps but that was a factory Savage barrel and I don't know if the barrel or bullet was to blame. They sure shot good when they made it...

  17. Stupid question on bedding

    The day before I begin a bedding job, I will mix a tiny amount of bedding material and place it in the barrel channel just back from the tip of the forearm. Then when I put the barreled action back into the stock, that bedding will conform to the barrel contour and create a "cradle" for the...

  18. 6.5 Sherman

    How well did the Berger's shoot at that speed? I don't have any experience with them and am wondering how well they shoot at those above average velocities. I have wanted to do a 6.5 (most likely Sherman) shooting 140's for my next build and don't have any personal experience with fast 6.5's to...

  19. 6.5 Sherman

    A 6.5 Sherman has been on my mind for a while. Pretty sure it will be the next rifle i build. Read everything i could find about it over the last couple years. Does anyone else here shoot one?

  20. No Devcon 10110?

    Exactly. I cant stand them. Unless you need a 1/4x20 bolt, they wont have what you need in stock. I believe they should change their name to “Fasten-some” or “Fasten-occasionally”.
