This will be coming soon to my bench.


I use Hornady cases anyway in this Creedmoor and couldn't pass up this deal, even tho I'll likely not use the bullets.

Figured out the small base die is setting the shoulder back too far-way too far. Our bolt 308 doesn't care. The Semi-Auto is particular. 18 adjustments to get it right. We have a few ready to range test.

Came in today. I was able to call and specify UPS to ship instead on that crappy USPS drop off mess. Got it in 3 days. ;)

Midsouth Shooters Supply shipped me four 100-round boxes of Speer Hot Cor 150 grain flat nose bullets for my .30-30. Fortunately, they were smart and used Fedex and arrived today.
They asked me if I wanted FedEx or UPS and I chose UPS as I didn't want another FedEx driver turning around in my yard, in the mud. 🙄

Loaded up some Grendel and Creedmoor ammo for 400 and 800yd steel shooting with some friends yesterday. 123 hpbt and 140 eldm, steel was a 12"x16" silhouette, 8" round and 6" round ar500. 800 was a bit much for the Grendel yesterday.

The other guys had a .308 win with 155gr scenars, 6.5cm with 140eldm and a 6cm with 108eldm.

41.5grs h4350 has been fantastic in several 6.5cm's


Its shot great in mine out to 1k, a friend loads the same and has taken his to 800 and another friend has taken his to 1200 or 1300 I can't remember which.

The 140eldm is a great hunting bullet too. He has killed a pile of hogs and whitetails with perfect performance
