  3. My new Hood vs my Forster

    So not long ago I posted questions on my Forster coax not giving me consistent head space. I tried everything and it would vary .0005-.002 cartridge to cartridge. My only guess is the floating die?? Tried to figure everything, lube build up, bad annealing, etc.... Anyway, I picked...

    I was wondering for reviews on the lee pro 1000 progressive press. I am fully aware you get what you pay for, but sometimes certain items are a deal. I just want something to load 300blk for fun at the range. And I don’t want to spend a fortune. So I am wondering what people’s...

  13. Started using Boretech Eliminator and.......

    So I started using bore tech eliminator per everyone’s advise and Cu2 and C4. Pretty impressed so far. 2 questions about it tho. 1. It seems that the eliminator works just as well as the c2 + c4. Am I missing something? I would think the c2 and c4 should be stronger 2. Also, I...

    Just want to know if the Giraud is precision enough for competition benchrest shooting?
  15. Annie vs amp reviews?

    I don’t really want to compare Annie vs amp annealer. I know amps are top notch machines. But Annie’s look like they hold their weight as an inductive annealer that anneals down to the 1/10 of a second and are at a price that are on par with most good flame annealers. So do a lot of...

  17. Bob Green comparator review

    Just got it in the other day. Sorted about 150, 6.5 Berger’s Gotta say. Very impressed. Even with Berger’s, there was a pretty substantial range of .002 And I had about 3 that were wildly off. Very misshaped. Took several readings and the bullets were off .010 from one side to the...

    I know I’m beating a very dead decaying horse. Measuring bto. I only want to know ONE thing. I have heard the bearing length arguments, the weight arguments. My one and only question is, I have had Berger’s that varied in bto length by up to .004. Not common, but they did. So I know...
  19. Powder charge, winter vs summer nodes?

    I don’t do much cold weather shooting. Last summer my accurate node was 40.5, about 80-85 degrees, probably humid. Yesterday it was 50 and cloudy. I noticed I was at 42.5gr can it really change by 2 grains due to temp? The only other change I made was from Hornady to lapua brass...
  20. Adams trickler (static) problem? Maybe?

    So I went to do some reloads the other day. Loaded up the auto trickler and my powder drop. And after dumping the powder, the trickler started up to trickler the remainder. But even tho loaded with powder, the motor kept turning and turning. So I emptied it, blew down the tube, shined a...
