    Wilson micrometer bullet seating die

    There are a few advantages to the Wilson seater. Straight bullet seating. The way they work you can't help but seat straight. It won't fix cases that are sized crooked, but it won't add more concentricity problems. Portability. It's a lot easier to haul an arbor press and a Wilson die to...

    Finally got to shoot my new 28 Nosler. With the 195s and Retumbo I got 3200 out of it. primer pockets measure fine, with a little bit of an ejector mark. I'll call this my upper limit, and likely back off a bit when I get to accuracy tuning. My bbl is 27", Krieger 5R 8.5 twist. wyatt's extended...

    12 gauge - black synthetic stock - 22" bbl 3.5x10 Leupold Vari-X III scope, matte black, duplex reticle I bought this slug gun new and carried it 2 days in the field (1 shot, 1 buck). Long story short, I injured my shoulder and its a bit too much recoil for me. Next year I'm going to a XP100...

    Tight chambering brass

    When you adjusted your FL die to properly resize belted cases (bumping the shoulder .002-.003) to headspace off the shoulder, not the belt, you are no longer resizing the area directly above the belt. It's one of the unfortunate realities of magnum belted cases. The only real solution to...

    Brass prep?

    Inspect them to rule out any complete loser cases (few if any likely for Lapua). If it were not Lapua, I typically do a quick weight sort to cull any extreme odd-balls. It's very unlikely that they'll be need to be sized, check a few empty cases to make sure they chamber. Run a 6.5mm expander...
