    Trying to reload for the .223 WSSM????

    Even though there was no interest in this post, I thought I would post the findings in case someone would become interested. The Winchester rifle got worse the more rounds we put through it. We began thinking it might be a bad scope, so of course we put a known good scope on with the same...

    Question about seating the bullet straight

    Yes, I understand about the headspace and possibly resizing to much. That is the next tool on the "to buy" list. Which tool in your experience is the best to use for this? I hesitate to go to neck sizing as my rifle is a AR-15 in .223, with a 20" SS heavy, not varmint, barrel. I can shoot...

    Question about seating the bullet straight

    Derick, yes I know what run out is, just drew a blank when I read RO. I am very interested in loading accurate and consistant rounds, but I feel there is a point where one reaps diminishing returns. And I realize for serious long range shooting one must do everything possible to reach ones...

    Question about seating the bullet straight

    [ QUOTE ] Do you have a concentricity gauge? That will give you more info on your loads than anything. [/ QUOTE ] No I don't,but suppose I should get one. [ QUOTE ] Secondly, and probably most importantly, you can ditch the expander in your sizer die. Regardless of how good it is, it can...

    Question about seating the bullet straight

    I recently rolled some of my .223 77gr. SMKs on a flat surface finding 60% of them have some run-out and 40% of them have, what I would call, a lot of run-out. I'm wondering where in the reloading process this is happening and what I can do to eliminate it. Could the sizing process be moving...

    Ultrasonic Case Cleaning Made Easy

    Great information, thanks! I'm having great success final rinsing my brass to remove case lube with Orange Blast concentrated citric cleaner mixed 1 part cleaner to 4 parts hot water. I'm curious what the citric cleaners would do in the ultrasonic cleaners? Has anyone tried it??

    Trying to reload for the .223 WSSM????

    My brother has a Winchester Model 70 classic lightweight in .223 WSSM, 1-10 barrel. We have been trying to find a powder/bullet combination that shoots well in it and we're having no luck. All cases are being neck sized and preped just like we do all our brass so the prep I don't think is the...

    Best place to buy a rangefinder?

    I've decided on a Leica 1200 rangefinder and was wondering if anyone could point me to a good place to buy one. Price, prompt shipping, and good customer service is a must. Thanks

    Bushnell 4200 scopes?

    I see, did not know what the amount of vertical adjustment was/is. I plan on hunting with this gun and will probably try to find a point blank out to 300yds. It has the mil-dot recticle in it and was wondering if there is a decent dissertation somewhere on the internet about it's use. Thanks, Phil

    Bushnell 4200 scopes?

    I am curious if anyone is using the Bushnell 4200 line of scopes? I have just got a 6-24X40 4200 to put on an AR15 A3 with a 20" barrel. I hope they are good scopes.
