I've only used Remington brass for my .204, so I can't help directly with the Win brass. Have you thought about buying 20 or 50 of another brand brass and giving it a try? I can't imagine that Win is that soft...I think we'd have heard about that sooner. I'll look forward to some of the comments on ...

.257 Wby Magnum: a white horse of a different color for sure!!!!!!

I'd say go with the .257 Roberts....mainly for the heavier bullets...

I Googled it, and came up with a "how to" from

I"ve got a Leupold Zero Point boresighter. The battery has "expired" and I can't for the life of me find the "manual" that came with it :doh: , and am stumped about how to open it up to change the batteries. Leupold has yet to answer my emails. Can anyone here help? Thanks. ...

In the field, in the gun safe, in the gunsmith's workshop and in the reloading room.....and the family as well......

I"ll second that motion....

Great idea!

Welcome to the forum and the world of the .204. Could you help us out by telling us a little about the rifle/scope/stock in the photo? Thanks, George

Great, great photos!!! I especially loved the sleeping kitty....

Thanks for the feedback. Any other suggestions on what to lube the die with after cleaning?

I've read here and other places about cleaning new dies before using them. I just got a Wilson Micrometer Seating Die and Harrell arbor press. I'd appreciate some comments and suggestions on what to use to clean it, and how. Thanks. In the past, I"ve just gone ahead and put'em to work. George

Update: Harrell's Press rec'd today via USPS Priority. They tried to deliver it Saturday, but no one was home.......Good service.

Great reports, and photos...thanks! I ordered a Harrell press last Tuesday am, and a .204 Wilson Mic seater die from Sinclair at the same time. I got the Sinclair order on Thursday, but Harrell hasn't yet charged my card, so I doubt it's shipped. I called Thursday and was told that it was going out ...

Very fine rifle you have there! Congratulations, and thanks for the report and photos. I have a #1 varmint in 22-250, and have a Leupold III in 6X18 on it. I had to use "extended" mounts/rings in order to get the eye relief....Good luck!
