    Chambering problems

    It looks like you may be right. I don’t know if you can see in these pics, but I found that the seating die is changing the shape of the shoulder, and one round developed a dent

    Chambering problems

    Update: I reset the resizing die (a brand new Lyman full length resizing die) all the way down to contact the shell holder then backed it off about a quarter turn. An empty case sized this way chambers with no issue. Then I loaded up some live rounds, using the minimum charge and setting the...

    Chambering problems

    The load isn’t compressed. When you shake it, you can hear the powder moving around. This got me thinking though. The rounds I chambered a couple weeks ago at the bench were dummy rounds, sized and with bullets seated, but no powder. I wouldn’t have thought adding powder in a non-compressed load...

    Chambering problems

    Who doesn’t wear camo to hunt

    I don’t worry about it at all during gun season. Mostly earth tone pants and shirts from 5.11. One if those super light, netting style over-suits in camo is good for bow season and will go over anything. Other than that, its not worth the ridiculous price. Plus, you don’t look like such a dufus...

    Chambering problems

    I’m looking for some advice. I am working on my first ever handload. Its for a 338 win mag. I loaded up my first batch of test rounds and they chambered with no problems at home, a couple weeks ago. I went to the range this morning and none of them will chamber, they are all too tight. Factory...

    Beginner Advice Please

    Has anyone ever used standard large rifle primers on a 338 win mag? I wonder how much difference it would make.

    Beginner Advice Please

    I picked up some RL19 from Brownells and some Power Hammer 205s. But I’m dead in the water until I can find primers. Checking the websites several times a day. This is crazy

    Beginner Advice Please

    I am about to begin working up my first handload ever. Its for a 338 win mag, specifically for elk. I’m planning on going with Hammer bullets. The folks at Hammer bullets recommended that I start with the 205 power hammer. Would anyone care to recommend a powder? Everything is so hard to find...

    Bark Collar for a big Stubborn Dog

    I have a black-mouth cur who seems to find petsafe’s bark collar somewhat amusing. Any suggestions on a bark collar that has a little more authority?

    Sight replacement Remington V3 Field Sport

    I have a Remington V3 Field Sport that threw its front bead on its first full round of skeet. I would like to replace the sights with fiber optic. Has anyone done this? There are a lot of choices, some magnetic, some screw on, etc. For each one there are some great reviews and others that say...
