    How badly did I try to kill myself?

    But do you want to run it like that? It comes down to knowing your gun and how it is "supposed" to feel when it shoots good. It is very subjective.

    How badly did I try to kill myself?

    In my limited experience the rifle can tell you when you are too hot. You said that the rifle kicked like crazy and to me that may be the rifle talking to you. If you think the rifle is shooting smoother at a lesser load I would drop back a little.

    School of Thought on Velocity Nodes. Fast or Slow?

    In PRS style shooting I think you are going to want the higher velocity load. I would load 10 more rounds and see if it holds up, maybe test some seating depths and see if it tightens up. Then take it out to 600 and see if it is staying together.

    Secant Ogive Bullet Seating Plugs

    That may turn out to be the easiest and the cheapest route. Might just grab a complete die set and have it over with.

    Good .223/5.56 Powder Choices?

    I have had pretty good luck with CFE223. It meters good and can cover a wide range of bullets. For lighter bullets H335 has done a good job. Varget is great but it is hard to find every time powder supplies tighten up and it doesn't meter a well as I've needed.

    Want to move to wet tumbling, couple of questions

    I decap before tumbling I don't want the chance that water is trapped and then end up with a failure to fire due to wet powder. The pin size is not as critical with pistol rounds in my experience just go with a size that is being recommended or go to the chips. A magnet and a media separator...

    Alternative to a gun safe?

    I went with the Secure-It storage system. It maybe a little more expensive but it comes with nice racks to secure the firearms and to be honest you can get a lot of stuff in there using the available racks and bins. What I really like though is that they are light weight and easy to move if...

    More LnL Curiosity. Primer Seating Issues

    It's funny to me that you brought that up I really like playing with these presses and have thought a lot about doing exactly that. I actually bought a lightly used press rebuilt it, tuned it and sold it to a friend. The problem I see is when you get shipping two ways and then charge anything...

    Mobil 1 for oiling guns?

    The nice applicator is usually what the gun oils have over the automotive oils. Getting the oil where you want it is the key to good lubrication. ATF would in my opinion be a good all around lubricant. Although I have been using the Go Juice Very Thin Grease and really like it. Use it on my...

    Pulling bullets (lots of them)

    If you don't have a 10mm why are you going to break these down at all what are you trying to salvage? If you are going to try to sell the brass that is a lot of work for a little bit of money and if you have to buy a puller to get it done you have already lost money on the deal.

    Lube Advice (stuck cases)

    What kind or spray lube are you using? Usually you can put the cases in a plastic tub and spray the cases directly. Follow the directions on the lube if it says to let dry for a few minutes let them dry.

    Misfires after wet cleaning brass. Reuse powder?

    I guess you could try it and see but if it was me I would start over with fresh powder. Life is short.

    What's your H335 Load for .223/5.56?

    I have been using 21.9 gr H335 with 55 gr FMJ from xtreme. 2.20 COAL. I don't have current chrono data but it seems to shoot well. I don't think you will see any great increase in accuracy by pushing the bullet faster.

    Barrel Heat: Stainless or Carbon?

    Starline brass

    I have been using Starline rifle brass in my 6.5 Creedmoor for several years now and have been very happy with it. I clean up the flash hole and uniform the primer pocket when I get it and then run from there. Not sure it needs the prep work but I do it anyway just like everything else I do...

    LE Wilson Chamber Type Bullet Seater Height?

    I am considering the purchase of an LE Wilson inline seater but I would like to know what height is needed to use this type die in 6.5 Creedmoor. I have a small press that I would like to use but it only has 4"+ of usable space between the ram and the press floor. Anyone got a measurement on...

    Carnauba wax over paste wax?

    The Carnauba wax will remove the Johnson's Wax. Like removes like. Just wax over it and buff it out.
