    Tell me why I shouldn’t get a Browning BLR in .308.

    It’s the Browning Hi Power of lever actions. What’s not to love?

    Blown primers on win brass

    Take a look at your bolt face. I’m betting it’s etched from the gas escaping

    Blown primers on win brass

    Win brass primer pockets tend to run on the large size and Win primers tend to be undersized. The combo of the two spells trouble

    Tell me why I shouldn’t get a Browning BLR in .308.

    I’ve had a .358 BLR for 40 years and it’s a multi-generational deer slayer as my son hunts with it now. Sorry OP, can’t help ya.

    Girsan MCP35 High Power

    That’s largely the case with all Browning firearms (rifles, shotguns, pistols and machine guns), from the beginning to today. JMB was a prolific designer but neither he nor the Browning Company made any production firearms. They were always farmed out to others to make, namely Fabrique...

    What reloading components have you overbought?

    Same here. The byproducts of experiments that didn’t pan out. I also have a quantity of ball powders and bullets that worked fine for range blaster ammo in semi-auto rifles but once I started circling the accuracy drain these rifles and components started collecting dust. I try to use my...

    Just got a new Teslong Bore Scope

    It’s much better. You still have some in that stubborn first few inches of the bore. It’s a pain in the ass to remove when it’s built up over time. Once you have it gone it will be a much easier task to stay on top of it.

    Just got a new Teslong Bore Scope

    Yeah, that’s all nonsense. It’s just maintenance. No need to change the oil in your car at regular intervals. Ignorance is bliss. Just drive it. Looking forward to seeing the after pics

    Just got a new Teslong Bore Scope

    I can relate. Several years ago I had an accurate .308 that started shooting like a shotgun. After my trouble shooting failed to identify the root cause I took it to a gunsmith. First thing he did was stick a bore scope in it and showed me how filthy it was. I was shocked and a bit...

    Hate to beat a dead horse(another Servicios & Aventuras SPP post)

    Measure the cup thickness on a few and see if they’re thicker than other brands?

    Bench scope

    I second this. Best target scope for the money IMHO.

    New at annealing question

    Every neck sizer is a closet full length sizer because they all will eventually have to FL size the case in order to keep using it. A lot of reloading is about keeping the variables constant round to round. Same powder charge, same seating depth, same neck tension, etc. For that reason alone...
