    First thing to do is to educate your colleague to not divulge that sort of info about a second person.

    I've never chased the velocity demon, only acceptable accuracy. The deer cannot tell the difference between a "fast" load and a slightly lower speed load and bullet drop may not be significant.

    The bare B14R cost is actually just short of the scoped suppressed 1416. My next purchase will be a B14R. Why, because I can and it's my interest. Life's too short particularly at my age. The B14R...

    Agreed. When the annealing "fad" appeared I decided unless I could do it consistantly case to case I wouldn't bother. I never had a need to do it due to split necks. Since gone down first the...

    Just a further note on runout. When I shot fullbore my reloads were sorted into good and "bad" runout. Good for the harder ranges and comps, "bad" well, they tended to pile up to the point I had to...

    I checked fired cases out of the chamber and they had zero runout. Sized in the body die (not just my 308) and there would be a few thou runout. Not much but there. Measured with a 21st Century gauge...
