It has been discontinued by them for the past 4-5 years. I'm just trying to find anyone that has some laying around that they want to sell.

Re: Neck sizing issues...

There are no signs of pressure with the brass, primer, or bolt face

Re: Neck sizing issues...

The brass I'm using is Hornady. The loads are hot. 27.9 of benchmark pushing a 32grain SBk @ just under 4200fps. I was lubing the case neck with the Redding powder.

If I would use a body die and then neck size, isn't that the same as FL sizing?

Neck sizing issues...

Hey guys, Decided to start neck sizing the brass for my 204 rather than to keep FL sizing it. However, I am having trouble with the neck sized brass chambering easily. There is a decent amount of resistance when only neck sizing at the end of the forward throw and bolt turn down. When FL sized, roun...

Hey all! It's time I start to thin out my collection of rifles that I don't use nearly enough. This one happens to be a CZ 527 Varmint in 204 Ruger. The rifle is in MINT condition with under 125 rounds fired. A pet load has been worked up as well and will be included for the buyer. The crown is in e...

Re: 6.5x47 Lapua build

This is the load I decided on for hunting. It is a 130gr Berger VLD sitting on top of 38.7 of H4350 with a velocity of 2694. Using Lapua brass and CCI BR-4 primers. This was 3 shots at 100yds. From center to center it measured .115" http://i857.photobucket.com/albums/ab139/jdefranc938/doc.jpg

Re: 6.5x47 Lapua build

Thanks! The muzzle brake is a custom build by the gunsmith. But there are a bunch out there that look similar... Painkiller, Holland's new design, and there is one more that was real similar but the name escapes me at the moment!
