Thanks Gunpoor and Derick, I like H-4831sc, but I don't seem to get the velocity I want with book loads. I have exceeded book with no problems, but I am not confortable doing this even though there doesn't appear to be pressure signs. My goal is 3075 fps. with very good accuracy from my 25"...

I have been loading my .300 Win. mag. cases with H-1000 because of the temp. insinsitivety of this Extreme powder. However most loads with the longer bullets are quite compressed. I was searching my Quick Load program for alternate powders that would give me the desirable case fill and the...

I have a Chrony F-1 and a Chrony Beta Master with the paper tape thing. Probably have $300 invested (tripods, tape, extra long wires, extra sun defusers, etc.). Bought a Oheler 35 just before they were discontinued, and what a good move ! If the Oheler is more accurate with the greater...

I shot at American about four years ago. Shot every weekend. At that time, you qualified at 300 yds. You were required to place 5 shots into the 5" Bullseye. You were supposed to have a rangemaster present to attest the target and if successful, you received a hand written card from the...

Suggestions for 300wm I think that I have tried most of the popular powders listed. I have come to like H-4831sc, but have to load it to 77-78 grs. for good accuracy and velocity and that loading is way over book which makes me nervious, even though none of the traditional pressure signs have...

Will the co-ax press accept Redding Competition neck size and seating dies?Also, will this press (being that everything works off the center line and the shell "holder" allows the cartridge to float)will it product strighter ammo than a standard press.I use the above dies with a Redding Big Boss...

LWolken, Terrible management excepting James.I really like him,but his hands are tied by the guys that set policy.I feel bad that James has to put up with the decisions that come from upstairs. I bought my Beretta O/U from American because of James and his excellent help. Jim

Good facility,terrible management!! Jim

Thanks,Goodgrouper! Jimmy

how do you measure case head squareness and if they are not flat,what is the proceedure and tools needed to square them? Thanks, Jimmy

Cody, I agree with all of the above. I would also add that it is beneficial to sort your brass by weight and neck wall thickness.If you use quality brass and have a micrometer designed to measure neck wall thickness,you can sort it to be consistantly within .001" thickness.This will improve...

Would somebody give the measurements of an unfired case? I need water capacity and the neck thickness(all the way around).Weight of brass? Thank you, Jimmy
