Hey thanks Rick. Ive done a lot of reading but I've seen conflicting info between brands and i thought I would see what the majority does. I'm aware the fire formed casings is the best fit and i thought why re-shape what fits perfect. But then I read what other experienced reloader say and they beli...

Im sittin infront of my press at the moment debating the pros and cons of each. What do you guys do and why?

I would check out pacnor. They make a 1:7 for .204.faster twist the better

Thanks Rick. Was abouy to start loading today. Back to the store I go.

Not just the barrel the whole gun is.

Totally agree. I own a tikka hunter and a rem 700 sps with timney trigger and bell and carlson tactical stock. Ill hole into hole with both but the actions arent even comparable in my mind.

I went to cabelas and they were out of cci br4 so he gave me 6 1/2 remintons but I notice most say the use 7 1/2. Is 6 1/2 ok

The 27.7 was with H4895 and Varget. I used he ladder system and used the info from sierra reload site I found a ...

I see some of the charges people use 27.7 gr is halfway up the neck on my casing. Is that ok

Im new to it but everything I was told was to pick a few bullets that should be ok with my barrel twist (1:12) and do a laddr test. Im actually doing it as we speak. Im loading 39gr bk and 32 gr bt varmint. Im using h4895 and ill start the bk's with h4895 5x 27 gr 5x 27.3, 5x 27.6 then ill do someth...

Im new to reloading and i want to know when i should trim my brass. My fired one time shell dont show any sine of strecthing.

I got some 39gr bk's and 32gr nosler bt varmint. Anyone have any secret recipes

I stand corrected. I looked and 32gr vmax and 39gr blitzkings have awesome bc and hold it for a long distance
