I have a 270 WSM that I would like to try 150 gr bullets in. Currently I am shooting 130 VLD hunting which shoots pretty decently, but I’m not overly happy with the terminal performance. In working up my loads, I have used 130 gr BTs and Sierra GKs, but my rifle wasn’t crazy for either...

I called them last summer to get a Quickload upgrade and she told me they were coming out with a digital upgrade other than a CD. I‘ve been trying to call them on the # which I have always used and Inget someone promoting something. I always hang up b-4 I get the details. I recently looked...

21 second ago OP Quartermaster Campfire Regular Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 625 upstate NY Just totally disassembled mine cleaned it thoroughly and reassembled. I never looked at the alignment of the slots on the piston rings. I assume that they should be offset? Please advise. Thanks, QM

VFG Felt pellets Anyone know where to get them in the US besides Brownells? They don’t have squat in stock. I also need an adapter with a 8-32 male end on it, preferably with the nut to hold the felts in place Seems like a good system for getting carbon out of the grooves in a barrel. I think...

I have brass prepped and ready to start working up a load for my nephew’s 6.5 creedmoor. The lapua brass has small rifle primer pockets and an undersized flash hole. Just curious if you guys still use regular small rifle primers or magnums. Thanks in advance, QM

Anyone have this version? I have the 6 and use it often. Was thinking of getting the 7, but heard somewhere that the only listed bullets are Sierras, and also that it wasn’t as easy to use as the version 6. Thanks in advance

What are the physical measurements of the unit? Is it necessary to have the barrel aligned with the center of the unit height wise? Can the barrel of a center fire rifle be 6-8” in front of the unit and will it still trigger? What is the height to the center of the unit sitting on the base unit...

Never loaded them before, but have to for my brother in law. He only has a limited amount of them so I don’t want to waste them fiddling around. Do you generally find they like to be close to the lands, or jumped. When I jump, I usually start at .030 and work forward. Where do you guys find...

Anyone use it in a 14. Seems from the pics, it is long. Thanks

Just curious if they will stabilize in a .222. Just finished breaking in the barrel and getting ready to start load workup. I expect velocity to be 3050-3150 fps. Nosler says yes, but I kind of have doubts. Hoping that someone has used them or the v-maxs in 55 gr. I will definitely be giving...

Pretty sure I’m going to do a 222 mag build. It was a toss up between that and the reg 222 Rem. But leaning towards the mag I have Redding bushing dies for 204 Ruger and 223. I intend to buy an RCBS body die for the 222 Mag, as Redding doesn’t have any bushing dies in this cartridge. I...

I am in need of getting an adjustable raised comb installed on one of my target rifles to better align my eye with my large objective scope. Can anyone give me info on a reputable guy to do this for me? Thank you in advance

Can someone tell me the tap size that matches the Hornady modified case? I bought one and the right size drill bit a while ago. I found the drill bit, but misplaced the tap. thank you in advance, QM

I am going to do a build on a Rem short action and have to buy a rifle to do so. What do you guys think is the most saleable take off barrel? A .223 with a 14" twist or a .308 with a 10" Thank you QM

Anybody ever tried it or using it now? Thinking of trying it with 55 gr heads. I am looking for some load data.

I have 100 .280 Rem Norma brass as well as Nosler and Remington. I am torn between using the Norma or Nosler on a new custom rifle that I just got back from my smith today. In the distant past, I know there was problems with primer pockets loosening up prematurely, using the Norma, but I am...

I just lucked out an picked up a new .223 Rem SPS for an unbelievable price. Now I already have. custom 223 and a factory CZ527 in 204 which I have A 3 shot group of .167 with. Maybe just a lucky day for me, but it always shoots much better than me. What say you guys for a buildl? My...

With all the ballistics programs out there, it is easy to punch in all the data needed to get the ballistics for your rifle except for the sight height. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I have always figured that that measurement was the height of the centerline of the scope above the centerline of...

I have a stripped lower and parts kit that I am working on putting together. All is going well so far, except the roll pin that holds the bolt catch in place slips right though the hole with no resistance and looks like it should be a bit longer also. The lower and parts kit are from Stag. I...

I have always taken up the slop in the cross bars on weaver rings by holding them back towards the buttstock before tightening, figuring that the recoil would want to push them back. I was reading an article tonight saying that they should be held towards the muzzle. What do you guys think...
