If you aint got messed up case mouths, dont use an expander!! All of my dies I use on my bolt guns have had the decap rod/expander ball removed. Just one more thing to mess up my brass!

Hey folks, down to a little over a month now to go. Our goody table is going to have over $4,000 worth of stuff on it! We have just recently picked up Giraud Tool as a sponsor and will have a...
RECYCLE that berdan primed junk for the reasons stated above. Why throw it away when brass does have some junk yard value...besides, why waste it? Reload it? NO, unless you have the right tools...
Ira,
Just which Sierras do you need? I may be able to help you out. email me at mudcat@charter.net if you need some Sierras and you cant get em anywhere.

Hey folks, its with great pleasure that I annouce our North Carolina Reduced Course (2/300 yard) XTC and 300 yard Mid Range prone State Championships that will be held again this year at Catawba...
Oops, sorry for the delay in responding. I think its well worth the $55 as you will not get ANY play in the rear sight after its pinned. It doesnt take much back at 600 to move you so why mess with...
Creedmoor Cordura hardback is the way to go. You will see more of those on the firing line than anything else. Why? Cause they are good and work. Get light colors so you arent roasting in the sun...

Yes sir, I did. But I did have a few issues with the gun and me. :-)
Shot it again (have shot it all 4 yrs running) and enjoyed it. Shot ok. Its a quick match, fun, and its neat to shoot that little pup gun. If you do it right, they shoot ok, but you gotta be...
ONly downside to the GIruad is that you quickly realize you dont have enough brass as you can size it all really fast!

Exactly why I dont mind spending the big $$ on Dillon presses. I own three 550s and one 650s...soon to be two 650s if I can save a bit more coin!

I have put about 1,000 rounds thru my M4 OPS 22lr in the last couple of week...well, me and about a dozen others that shot it over the 4th holiday. FUnctions well but as with most 22s, cheap 22s can...
Wolf LR at 18/1000 is/was below wholesale, so you got a bargain. And, they are kickbutt primers too. Of course, we havent been able to get Wolf primers now since the election...supposedly a bunch...
The long bbl 500 and 460 are easy to manage. 12 yr olds have shot both of mine and one big 12 yr old even shot the heavy loads in the 500. They are unbelievably powerful but even more surprising is...
Get a WOA with the WIlson bbl. I guarantee you that it will outshoot YOU and the rest of us! No need to spend the big bucks on the Krieger, PacNor, etc.
Yeah, might be a few bucks more than a...
Probably a better time to be buying right now, than selling.
I have used the Konus 80mm side by side with the Kowa and its NOT even in the same league. It IS a good scope for el cheapo dollars, but, like most stuff we use in our sport, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY...
JK,
You must be gettin' old man...thats old news! And yeah, I hear ya, glad to see HXP is going the way of the dinosaur...at least for issue ammo! Yucky stuff for match shooting!

There are also probably some other powders that will getyou more velocity, should speed be all you are after.

If I am loading for one of my bolt guns, the expander ball is removed from the die....the last thing I want is something hitting the mouth of my nicely chamber formed case! Unless youre are denting...
Once a moron, always a moron. Cant fix stoopid.

Bingo! Sorta like when some where concerned that the Sierra 69SMK 2nds I was loading up for our juniors wouldnt be good enough (all laoded progressively on a Dillon 650 with AA2230c powder). Well,...
Yep...wind sucks when youre trying to use a chrono! I tend to pull it off the tripod and I rigged a little base with a 1 x 4 and two bricks and shoot off the ground. I then park the UTV to the side...
if he gets a chance to get the AWB reintstated, he WILL take it. Bank on it.
