I’m pretty new here and thought I should intro myself. Wife and I live near Thornton, TX, on a small ranch out in the country. I have a 100 yard range (107 if I have to be completely truthful) and shoot quite a bit. Been reloading since the early 80’s, and load for 308, 223, 6.5 Grendel, 270, 260, 6.5 CM, 38/357, 9mm, and 380 ACP. I hunt coyote, pigs, and deer (in season). The wife doesn’t hunt, but says she wouldn’t shoot a deer because they are so pretty. But she says she’d shoot a pig because they are ugly. As I age and get progressively less attractive, her statement has begun to concern me.

I've moved into the 21st century and have a .223 which I'm going to start reloading. Purchased a Lee 1000 setup, not quite complete still waiting for some bits and bobs. Will have a few questions on reloading the 223. Member of Adelaide Target Shooters.

Hello everybody from the great north woods in NH. I have been shooting most of my life and do it professionally for a major firearms manufacturer. I would like to get into precision long range shooting, just looking for some good info. I load my own ammo and have for a while in .222 Rem (my favorite), .243 win, 30-06 and soon to be 300 win mag. Good luck to everybody!

Greetings everyone, happy to be here and looking forward to getting to know the community.

Greetings everyone,

Michael from Auckland New Zealand. While I currently don't own a 6mm BR,but things will be changing soon), I have a very nice custom built 6mm/284 on a trued Remington 700 action.

What I am doing is applying the same reloading techniques that you guys are using with your 6mm BR's to my 6mm/284.

I simply love this site, and it is full of lots of helpful tips as well as friendly people to boot.

Many thanks & tight groups,

Michael.

I’m an idiot… just realized I’m inside a thread… so I’ll do my intro here. Hi, I dabbled in reloading a while back, mostly just cleaned and de-primed a ton of brass. Never actually loaded anything. Lost all my equipment in a divorce. But in the next month or two I’m looking to try and start again. I’ll be looking for plenty of advice and scouring the internet and classifieds for inexpensive used presses and such, as my finances are absolute dookie right now. But I’m glad to be here and I’m looking forward to learning from and contributing to the community. I was a military rifle collector for a few years, was in the Marines for 5 years, so I’m hoping I’ll have something in the knowledge banks that might be considered useful here. Anyway, thanks for having me!
