    Resizing question?

    Have been reloading for just over a year and am slowing getting things figured out. The one thing I am having issues with is some of my brass not fitting in the chamber after sizing. I set my resizing dies to 0.002 bump, having said this I have about a 3% rate where the new load will not...

    Barnes TTSX vs Accubond

    I like running the Barnes 150fr ttsx for my elk load and thought I would use the same on whitetail. Yesterday, I shot my buck at under 100yrds, and my brother shot a doe at 200yrs. Both areas of impact produced 5-6ft of hair, but very little blood or tissue until 10-20yards away. My buck went...

    Binding of new brass without sizing die for .280AI

    I am working on reloading prior to going out west and today at the range I noticed my .280AI bolt was tough to close when chambering a new round. So this evening I have taken new brass (nosler) resized the new brass and it is a tight fit to close the bolt. I then took some already once fired...

    7mm-08 speeds slow

    Just started working up a load for my 7mm-08 and I just bought a chromo graph and my loads seem to be about 150ft slower than what nosler has for the reloading data. Any reason why this would be? I did have my chronograph set roughly 7ft from the muzzle.

    Brass different lengths

    Getting ready to do my first reloading of my fired brass. The reloading books specs out 2.525 OAL in length. Almost, all of my fired brass measures the same as the new brass I have 2.510-2.512 OAL. Is this common or do I need to do something else?
