For the last couple of months I've been using a particular 500gm bottle of AR2206H. Wasn't getting particularly good groups with my .308 and the recoil felt quite soft. Anyway put several of my loads...

The 180grn Norma Oryx also a good bullet and very accurate in my 20" .308.

All shooting is good fun, but it can become obsessive. 94259

The 6.5 Creedmoor has a reputation for being an easy cartridge to develop an accuracy load for. I've found this to be true in my case, however that's with the caveat of only trying five powders and...

Same as Flyblown, love those 143 ELD-X for their flat trajectory. This fat fallow was shot on a very steep downhill slope at 296 yards. Bullet entered just below the right eye and exited as in the...

Wingman. I would say almost certainly you have a bad batch of AR2209. The two 500g lots I've used up were ME M5675 and ME M5583 plus 1lb H4350. None gave any excessive pressure even up to 45gr with...

It's not a magical answer to accuracy as you say. However, in an accurate firearm with a good shooter, uniform neck tension is something that contributes to increased accuracy. As repeatable accuracy...

Be aware that the Leica guys at the Sika Show have in past years quoted the RRP and tell you they're giving a special discount on the day. The reality is their discounted price is no bargain because...

Quite agree, I've never had a problem with expander mandrels causing run-out.

Well I'm definitely pedantic - case in point, a collet neck die doesn't work the neck any less than a bushing die if the neck wall thickness is equal all round. However, most unturned cases have...

Your mate is right, especially for hunting. With rounds in a magazine the bullet can move back under recoil. You can of course get away with less but only advisable in a controlled single load target...

I use a .336 bushing on Lapua .308 brass. Have used a .335 bushing which of course, increases neck tension but accuracy isn't as good in two different Sako rifles.
