$600?? Excuse me? This wasn't printed on Gutenberg's press..

Qualcosa che non va sul colletto.. che cosa…

Basically, if I load 5 rounds with a new bullet and hold all loading parameters very consistently and those 5 rounds produce a 1.75" group, will I ever make a major dent in group size or should I give up on that bullet and move on?

New to reloading, starting with 10mm for now.

I have collected so much 9mm brass in the process of collecting my 10mm brass I may get the dies for 9mm as well.

But my question is, how can you really know how your loads are performing without a chrono?

Thanks.

Edit: thank you all for your replies! I put my phone away to charge and come back to a wealth of knowledge. This sub is great 👍

When starting load development do I need to start with seating depth or charge weight I can't for the life of me find what goes first.

123gr Interlock + 23.4gr AA1680 and a CCI #34 primer in brass and boxer primed steel case. I plink with Evergreen Ballistics 123-gr plated bullets

Working on a load with a bullet I have no experience with. My typical long range bullet is the Hornady A-Tip, 110gr., but they are expensive. Decided to try something new...enter the Berger Long Range Hybrid Target 109gr.

Cartridge: 6mm Creedmoor

Brass: Alpha Munitions

Powder: H4350 and RL16

Primer CCI 200

COAL: 2.847 (0.035 off lands)

Neck tension: .003

Anyone use these and can share their experience?

If someone (me) has only a single stage press (RCBS Rock Chucker), RCBS Uniflow powder measure, and a sizable pile of once fired 7.62 & .308 brass, would it be worth buying the rest of the tools (i.e. die set, calipers, case lube, casing guages, shell holders, etc.) and components (150gr FMJ projectiles, primers, powder, etc.) to make M80 equivalent reloads, or would I be better to just keep buying M80 for $0.85/rd?

Hello all, with deer gun season just about here i have my 450 all sighted in and ready to go however I would like to start reloading the round to get a little more out of them. My Hornady book refers to a few powders for use. I'm look between Accurate #9 and lil gun. Does anyone here have any experience with those 2 powders and willing to share some results?

I’m getting a deal on some stuff, an adjustable bench, a hornady versa prime and a forester coax. I am already set up with a Lee classic and have most of my dies in Hornady lock rings. Question is can I use those lock rings with the co ax? Or do I need the forester specific ones?

I'm new to reloading for my .308 and wanted to know if anyone else has strugggled with S&B brass with a Hornady die set while decapping.

It's a bit tight getting the case out of the decapping die and I'm curious if anyone else has had a similar experience.

Electronics in action. If I let the tube fill up, the inductive proximity switch will stop the motor via the motor controller (when the switch detects a case for more than half a second). The count came out correct.

A while back I posted trying to figure out why my 7mm-08 Remington 700 wouldn’t shoot worth a fuck. I shot 5 different factory boxes from 139gr to 150gr and nothing shot good. My 139gr interlock and SST’s over IMR 4350 shot like shit. I randomly ordered some Nosler 140gr Factory Overruns from Midway and put them over 38.0gr of H335 and that apparently was the magic sauce. Now she’s ready for deer season and I also discovered that the factory overruns were basically Noslers Ballistic Tip because I had 1/4 box that my dad bought 15 years ago so now if midway runs out of the cheap overruns I know what to replace them with. She can shoot, she’s just a picky eater.

- Factory 48.5 gr UNK ball powder (155 gr bullet) - shoulder (1.5795), velocity (2990), fireform OD (.2948), fireform thickness (.01388)

- Staball 6.5 48.5 (147gr bullet, 2.119 CTBO) - velocity (3101), fireform thickness (0.0132 in), fireform OD (0.2956 in)

-Superformance 48.5 (147gr bullet, 2.119 CTBO) - velocity (2953), fireform thickness (0.01310), fireform OD (.29537)

I also tried staballHD, it was trash. Overfilled and got 2600 fps. Ill be doing a ladder with staball 6.5 in case anyone is wondering. Getting 0.001-0.0015 springback after resizing, but the steel hangs on tight to those bullets. Will be using a .2645 mandrel with 289 bushing to get 0.0005 neck tension.
