reloading

  1. 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...

  2. Bto. Beating dead horse

    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...

  3. 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...

  4. 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...

  5. Which light small press for range reloading?

    I have been up in the air asking around. But wanted to get a general consensus. What is a good press for full length sizing at the range. I really want something smaller and lighter. As of right now, the only thing I can think of is the harrels compact and the rcbs partner. I wish I...

  6. Bullet seating variations for fclass or BR, whats acceptable?

    So I use a Wilson inline seating die with a hydro press. For what ever reason, I never checked my variations round to round for consistency. Don’t know why. But I got a Redding instant indicator in the mail (always wanted one) and so I measured 20 rounds for seating depth. The seating...

  7. Montour county rifles melplate uniformer review?

    Looking for reviews on the montour county Rifles melplat uniformer. I currently have the Hoover, But that little copper shard in the hollow point after trimming drives me bonkers, I would think that could deflect wind as well. Feels like it defeats the point of trimming. I see that...

  8. Bullet pointing/trimming based on bullet length?

    I pre-apologize for this question. I know opinions will vary and also, because I ask a lot of bullet measuring questions. Buuttttt. , in the recesses I’d my mind a thought hit me about tipping or trimming bullets. If the lengths are not the same, they will trim or tip differently...

  9. How to use JB bore paste and Kroil correctly?

    I know they sell a kit with both included. And I also hear a lot of people on here using that combo for tough deposits. Do you only use the JB/kroil when the barrel is new?? Or once and a while down the road for deep cleanings? Or every time? I only ask because I always hear the joke...

  10. VGA felt cleaning pellets?

    Do we like vga felt cleaning pellets?? And/or do we like using a little oversized for cleaning carbon ring? They are not cheap so I want to see if they are worth buying

  11. Technical aspect of Adams trickler system?

    I was pondering getting the Adams system. I’m not total dummy (only partial), but not a brain surgeon either or a software engineer. So how hard is it to setup and maintain? And can it be glitchy? Just kind of want a easy operation system like my charge master.

  12. Pacific super mag, 3 ram press parts?

    So I picked up this press, because I loved it on first site and thought it was the coolest thing I ever saw. But I need a few parts for it. This press is a little before my time, but not everyone’s, hehe. So wondering if anybody on here may know where to get parts, or if anybody may...

  13. Bore Tech Cu+2 Vs sweets vs wipeout.

    Hey all, I was looking to experiment with a few copper removers. I know there is a wide range of opinions. I currently use wipe out accelerator, with wipe out foam. By morning, the foam dripping out of the end of the barrel is a beautiful nuclear radiation bright blue. It never...

  15. Does auto trickle only work with fx120i?

    I was just wondering if the auto trickle system only works with the 120i scale. I have a a&d Fx700ct, which is love and is always very accurate. Was also very expensive. Is there a way to adapt to a different scale, Or software/hardware setup will be an issue?

  16. Importance of different bullet lots??

    Is it ok to mix bullet lots if you are separating by weight and bbto??? Or is there another reason not to mix lots. Just curious.

  17. 21 century lathe turning question

    So I am somewhat new to turning. And I purchased a 21 century lathe. I am sure my question apples to any lathe tho. When I feed in the brass, it cuts the brass as expected. So if I pull the brass out and send it back in, without adjusting anything, it take off more, than again, takes...

  18. Magnum brass

    Hey guys, I'm having a long range stick built in 7mm mag. I've settled on Norma brass for my reloads, but can't find anything in stock. Lapua, norma and nosler can't be found anywhere! Was there a run on brass that i missed?

  19. 300blk reload data confusion

    So just starting to reload for pistol length, 1:8 300 blkout. I have Sierra 220 smk and h110 powder. Question is if you look at the 2 uploaded images, one is Hodgdon’s, and one is Sierra. H says 9.2gr is the max load, while Sierra says 10.1-12.2. So I cannot say I’m not confused.

  20. 338 Lapua Magnum brass questions from a memory challenged Veteran

    Preface.... Money/cost is a concern for me.... I am a disabled veteran and live on stupid ridicules VA and SSDI pensions. Has anyone ever ordered from American Reloading? I am interested in seasoning my barrel on my new Ruger Precision Rifle chambered for 338 Lapua Magnum. American Reloading...
