    Sideshow, mine are none working sausages. Great noses and I reckon they would make great rabbit and fox dogs. Really strong hunting instinct in them. They would be truck hunters though!

    Sea to Summit make a range of pads. Particularly a ultralight insulated pad with a R value of about 4. I have one now with about 10 bush nights on it and it makes for a good sleep. Use it with a...

    Grandpamac, Good dialogue and in the right spirit. I guess my point here is we tend to wear brass out more quickly than needed by over re-sizing it, that is FLS at each re-loading and making...

    Kiwi Sapper liked post by Dicko On thread : ORDER OF ACTIONS IN RE LOADING to be considered.
    The "right" sequence can vary depending on the equipment one uses. If your depriming as you FL size (i.e. useing the die), then annealing comes before as you don't want to be working hardened brass. ...

    johnd liked post by Dicko On thread : savage 99
    I had a .300 savage in a 99. Mechanically nice but the trigger was not flash and not a diy job for most. I found it hard to love. If it’s your first have a play with it before you drop the cash.

    Micky Duck liked post by Dicko On thread : What are these dies
    The second die looks a lot like a Lee crimp die. They are caliber specific. Very useful too particularly on old cases where you might be getting uneven neck tension. The first die is a lube die for...

    Cordite liked post by Dicko On thread : Once Fired Brass Worth
    Very easy to take .308 to 7/08 in one pass with a FL die. Bulk WW .308, .270 and .30-06 brass is $40/100 here. ADI should be $50/100. For hunting hard to justify paying to much more.

    Husky, you maybe right, my experience is lack of annealing show up in cracks in the necks at firing, different neck tension in batches resulting in poor groups and stiffness / stickiness of the case...
