I think the lube dents are just a function of his difficulty sizing the brass and needing so much lube... find out why they're so hard to size, and then you'll know why you need to slop on so much lube.... We use Imperial Sizing Wax and never have had a stuck case... Nor have we ever had a...

avoid the Redding 2400.... the stepwise collet employed in the 2400 is difficult to obtain consistent results... my 2400 collects dust... presently use the $7 Lee trimmers as mentioned above.....

Hi Walkalong, the images you've provided above, are they of a "carbon ring" and if so, could such a carbon ring affect accuracy / precision significantly?? I just received my borescope and I'm seeing things similar... thanks...

are you measuring each case from cartridge base to shoulder, before and after full length resizing? sounds like it not being a trimming issue, but rather a sizing issue....

I bought a Redding 2400, because it was cheap.... I hate it... the universal collet for all cases is tricky at times and has caused me to trim cases short... I do measure each case after trimming so I catch my errors quickly... If I were to buy another it would be the Wilson / Sinclair.....

used an old link... now it works????? some things are best left alone :)

I give up.... can't get it to work today..... when I select "rifle" and "Hodgdon" on the left, I get an incomplete mosaic of powders with "BUY NOW" beneath each one.. Sometimes the page allows me to choose "caliber" and "bullet weight", but often not.... When I can, choosing "get reload...

A few years ago I mounted a vxIII on my 338 win... I sighted it in and had a good load developed shortly after... At least once a year I'll grab the rifle and go to my range... Each time, I must readjust zero.. Zero has now been readjusted 3 or four times with same proven ammo... Not until...

I'll be interested to hear your progress/progression... I live in Canada and no one from the US will sell an inertia trigger for LabRadar outside the US.... Making one is my only option... Keep us posted... Thanks..

for some reason, to me, the whole concept of an impact puller for live rounds is dangerous.... collet / press mounted pullers make so much more sense.... I purchased the RCBS collet puller and use it more frequently than I care to admit, but it does work well... YMMV.... glad to hear the...

Digital Case Size Comparator.... by Larry Willis.... often referred to as a "Digital Headspace Gauge", but it's not, it's a comparator..... for a very GREEN reloader like myself who's chronically checking every case after every step, this device makes it incredibly easy to understand how my...

Please, let us all redefine "bump the shoulder" and "shoulder bump" to: "RELOCATE THE SHOULDER" and "SHOULDER RELOCATION", respectively.... No more ambiguity........

I might suggest that further turning the die down another full turn (.071") and then camming over again with this further adjustment, is definitely going to stress the press.... Stress the press to the point where things are going to become worn, loose, bent, broken, and, where the press won't...

"with the handle down and the ram all the way to the top, turn your resizing die in all the way until it just touches the shell holder, then lower the ram and turn your die 4/1 more turn"...... the above RCBS instruction was meant to say "1/4 more turn"..... oops... :)
