    Recommend a Turret Press rcbs or dillon? Others?

    Owned a Lyman turret press for years. I’m not a fan of the priming system, but I do really like the press. TBH I prefer to use a hand primer anyway, so don’t let that sway your opinion. You can buy a spare turret plate too. I have all my pistol dies on one, and rifle on the other. Pretty easy to...

    Boot Review: Crispi vs Kenetrek vs Schnee vs Lowa vs Meindl vs Hoffman

    Huge fan of Meindl. I’ve owned many pairs over the years for use in wildland firefighting. Put the miles on them and they hold up great! Comfort right out of the box and are great quality. Back in the day cabelas sold them, but you can get them directly from Meindlusa. Run true to size.

    CVA Paramount Pro Review ***Updated 3/7/21***

    Love my paramount! Bummed they discontinued them. Have some friends that want one but no such luck… took a nice pronghorn buck at 200yrd with the 285 power belts and it HAMMERED him. DRT with food in it’s mouth!

    Your Elk Hunting Rifle

    7mm rem mag savage 116. Been awesome for many of hunts in NV and CO. 150 ELD-X hasn’t failed me yet with this combo! Recently upgraded to CA Ridgeline in 300prc. Yet to draw a rifle tag past year and put it to use. 212 ELD-X is showing great promise. 2930 fps avg with H1000. Just got my hands...

    7mm Rem Mag bullet for Elk

    My 7mm RM loves the 150gr eldx. Taken many of deer and elk cow/spike. That being said, I do think it’s a bit on the smaller side for bulls. 300 is now my go to for that. Terminal performance for the eldx has been good for me. Not a huge weight recovery, but man does it cavitate! I have not lost...

    Reloading scale that doesn’t suck?

    My Lyman worked great for the $ as it came with the turret press kit, but recently it is overcharging 20% of the time with extruded powders. Easy to “correct” it by removing a few kernels, but annoying enough to make the switch. FX/autotrickler combo - buy once, cry once!

    300prc / Berger 245 / Retumbo combo

    Thanks for the info on the PM. I’m too much of a FNG to reply to the PM though… I have seen that chart many times, and it does list a combo for the 245s with N570. I’m looking for data on and if Retumbo will be an option. Thanks

    2024 Panic Buying

    It seems like quite a bit more inventory available lately, and some at even “discounted” prices. I doubt we’ll ever get back to original prices pre-2020. We showed the suppliers and sellers what we’d be willing to pay! I do think we’ll see another round of panic buying though being an election...

    300prc / Berger 245 / Retumbo combo

    Does anyone have any insight or data on this proposed combo? I know the vast majority of data out there suggests n570, but have have a bunch of Retumbo and wondering if it’s slow enough to work. CA ridgeline, 26” barrel, lapua brass. Looked at a couple of resources like Hodgdon website and GRT...
