The Benchmark is definitely finer.....and much easier to meter! Also, W748 is a ball type powder and easy to work with. Although some have reported success with the Varget in the .204, I think overall Benchrest has seemed to be superior. I've gotten great results with Varget using the Hornady 45gr S...

To clarify my previous post: the case holder is caliber specific, but it also requires a driver, which fits into the drill chuck, and engages with the caseholder.....the driver is $11.50.

This might be of interest to the forum. Unsurprising, I guess, but still very disappointing!!!

WW: thanks, V

I've lost track of them.....could someone point the way? Thanks....

Congratulations for getting the setup, and for joining the handloading ranks....it's infectious.

What cartridges are you going to be reloading? Handgun? Rifle? What calibers? For what purpose? These are some questions which will help know how to respond....

We're ready when you are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've had my LVSF in .204 for a year and a half and it's a real shooter! Go for it.....

The only bullet I've found to be a good fit (in my guns) with the Varget is Hornady's 45gr SP.......
