That must be quite the friend! I don't like anyone enough to process 300 BLK brass for them.

Well, I've got some good news to update with. After taking the awesome advice you guys had here, I went back and tried another string of loads. I pretty much duplicated the last batch except for the following updates. Shooting was done at the same range from the same distance. -All WFT-trimmed brass...

...bulk packs of the Speer TNT 125grn are typically lower cost than 150grn FMJ's and POA/POI difference from your 110gr loads is minimal. The TNT's rarely have feed/chambering issues as well. And that's one of he reasons I'm loading the TNT right now. I may not have that load down yet, but it has f...

Wow, that's big. Looks like you've got a bit of bench time in front of you to shoot that ladder! .70 a pomp for once fired ain't no joke. Do you have a brass catcher? On the lower; I know you're against it, but I would probably just bite the bullet and get a lower. I know all of my uppers magically ...

Quick question. Would it be worth it t use a laser temp. gauge to manage barrel temps between strings? Or, is the grab the barrel method God enough?

Thank you, Paul!

Howdy, I load the Speer 125gr TNT bullet too using H110 powder. My current load is 18.1grs ( not sure about OAL , will check when I get home ) and with my new Caldwell chrony they average 2033 ft/sec from my 10.5" barrel. When I load more 125 TNTs I'm going to bump up the charge to 18.2 or may...

Ok, back in the loading room. Here's what I found out about the WFT trimmed brass vs my usual manually trimmed brass. On the left is my manually processed brass, on the right is the WFT trimmed brass. I was very careful guiding the bullet into the seating die on both, but you can see the copper shav...

^^^^ a true statement. Kind of a catch-22 situation if you were trying to combine the 2 operations of grouping & FPS by using a "barrel mounted" device. The next session will have two extra rounds per string just to do velocity measurements. I plan on shooting all of the groups in seq...

Very cool. Glad you're passing it down. I laughed a bit though, because I had to do a double take when I was scrolling down past the bottom of the picture. It looked like you had his ankle chained to the shooting bench! :lol: Upon closer examination its obvious that it's the chair that's chained, bu...
