I have just gathered everything up to reload for my K31 SR in 7.5 x55 and am planning on using 170 grain Laser Cast gas checked bullets. I have always read that you are not supposed to seat the gas check past the case neck. On the 7.5 Swiss I have to seat the bullet so deep that the gas check...

I have been shooting 165 grain cast bullets in my 30-30 at a local silhoutte match. Most of the guys use 180 grain bullets. I use the 165 grain bullets simply because I do not have to seat the bullet with the gas check past the case neck. Some of the old time shooters were telling me the 165...

Are these rifles worth buying? I have found one in just about perfect shape and I think I can reload if I don't mind paying the high brass prices and can use .308 bullets. Does anyone have any advice on these? They look pretty nice. I plan on shooting cast bullets so I would not really be hard...

I have a Savage Model 10 20" heavy barrel .308 rifle. I have been using Sierra 168 grain HPBTM bullets with 41 grains of IMR 4064 powder. It shoots pretty well with this, but after reading an article on 20" barrels I am wondering if I should go to a faster powder. The 4064 load shoots real...

I am buying a new Savage 10FP-LE1 in .308 with 20" barrel if it comes in this week. The dealer just told me today that the receiver has changed on the new models with the accu-trigger. Instead of being flat at the rear and rounded at the front of receiver it is now rounded at both ends. I was...
