Good day everyone, I'm new to the forum as well as reloading. I got a small setup that I've been having fun with. I've been reloading .223, 22-250, 9mm, and 243 and am having loads of fun.

Been working primarily with the 22-250 though. Doing regular stuff but also got into using Blue Dot to develop reduced loads due to the versatility of the 22-250.

I'm shooting a Howa Hogue Kryptek Seracote with a 1:12 twist and have been doing quite well.

I look forward to leaning a lot of information on here. I'll probably do more reading than commenting.

Hello and good day to all! I have been reloading for about 30 years. I owned and operated a gun store in California back in the 90's, and enjoy giving and receiving knowledge. Although I have less firearms now that when I had the shop, I still reload for everything. Currently working on loads for my remington 700 with a heart bull barrel chambered in 7mm-08. have had good results thus far getting .75 groups at 200 yards. I'm not sitting in front of my load book, or i would share the data. look forward to chatting!

I currently load 220 Swift, 243 Win. 257 Robert Improved, 30/30 Win. and the old and true 30-06 Springfield and also 12Ga. Being retired and fixed income, I don't shoot as much as I once did.
The fun before retirement and ridicules price increases try,try, try to find that one perfect load.
Never happend. did you find it for one of these calibers?

[Johnny_V]

Hi Guys,

Been lurking here for quite a while and finally decided to join. I'm 63 and have been shooting since about 7 years old. Worked for 7 years in a gun shop in Cleveland back in the late 70's (Cleveland Custom Gun Shop), but been a diesel mechanic for 42 years. My love for the shooting sports includes everything from plinking with my pellet rifles to blasting out to 500 yards with my AR10 and M1A. I think the thing I love most though is the reloading aspect of the sport and could spend hours in my reloading room.

[Kurt Blasser]

Newbie to competitive long range shooting and now newbie to reloading. I'm currently shooting a new Savage 12 F/TR in .223 and reloading the Federal Gold Match ammunition I have shot once. My conundrum is neck sizing the brass to adequately hold the bullet. I am using Redding competition dies. Neck sizing the cases according to directions, .001 to .002 down from the measured case neck size in the loaded round has left me with a goodly portion of the bullets able to slide through the case neck. I need some guidance as to how far to downsize the neck and have adequate bullet neck tension, without overtightening. One test I have read about is to insert bullet into prepped case and then push it against the bench and see if the oal changes. I have had to size way down to get anywhere near that spec, and then with a bullet impact hammer it will take 5-6 good whacks to dislodge the bullet. This seems to me to be too tight. Any advice and guidance welcome.
