  1. Handloading Equipment
    I process and sell brass was wanting to see if selling is allowed in this forum thank you
  2. Handloading Procedures & Practices
    All the loading data that I have for 223 it says that the case length should be 1.760'' however all the brass that I was given is between 1.7500'' to 1.7560''. Is this okay to use? If I trim my brass to 1.750" would that still be safe to use as my reload or is all my brass trash? Thanks.
  3. Handloading Procedures & Practices
    I was given a single stage loader, dies for .223, case trimmer and everything else necessary for reloading. However I want to make my loads better and by better I mean to be more accurate. I have a Remington 700 and I plan to shoot out to 600yrds since that's the max distance at my range. My...
  4. Rifles and Rifle Cartridges
    Hi Everyone, So to get started I am looking for a caliber choice for primarily (90% of the time) target shooting, both steel and paper. I am not really looking for a hunting round for game so the versatility oh a round to take game would not be a deciding factor for me, I have another caliber...

  7. Handloading Procedures & Practices
    I have started reloading 223 using cartridges that I shot with my AR. I am using a Lee single stage press and noticed when starting that sometimes the small rifle primer seated easily and other times not. Looking at the ones that seated easily i found the primer hole clean and looking like it...

    Looking for a new coyote gun. I will be shooting in the prairies, where it is usually windy, and i will need to be taking some fairly long shots at times. I also do some calling. I do not reload. Just wondering what you guys use and what you would use for the above criteria. I want a dedicated...

    Sorry if this is the wrong category. Didn't see a pet load or handload section. I recently bought a national match AR. It has a 1:8 twist. I have read that 69-8- grain bullets are a recommended weight for bullets. I am headed to Camp Perry Monday to pick up some components at commercial row...

    I have a Savage 11 .223 with which I have been having extraction problems. Fully half the time, brass will not extract from the chamber but will be left loose laying in the action. The extractor consists of a part that grabs the rim of the cartridge with a ball and spring underneath seated in a...

  12. Rifles and Rifle Cartridges
    I've bought three of the current M70's in the past twelve months or so. They're terrific! I've been onto the Winchester website regularly to try and find out if they're close to starting to putt out the 223 yet in a M70. It's a great shame from a consumers point of view, but I understand that...

    Looking into getting one for coyote work. What is the rate of twist? can'y seem to find that info. What bullet size would stabilize best in that twist? Got a recommendation on a scope in $150-200 range? Also looking at a Savage package gun in that caliber...not real hot on the supplied...

    Does anyone know how I can get my hands on a rear sight for a vintage 1980 Ruger Mini 14? I bought it for a great price, but the rear sight assembly is missing. I contacted Ruger parts and they don't have any in stock and didn't seem likely they ever will. The action, barrel and stock are in...

    Hello all, I have a little bit of $$$ to play with, and after alot of thought I have decided to get a Remington 700 SPS Varmint. I have always wanted a "precision" type rifle that can be built upon. The one question I am really struggling with: do I get a .223 or a .308 win? I enjoy shooting...

    So. Dad and I just bought a VTR in .223. We plan to use it more for varmit shooting, but possibly some for silouhette varmit shoots. (max range maybe 400 yards?) We're asking around for opinions on any 1.) Scope Bases and Rings 2.) What kind of scope to get? Variable or fixed? ...3.) Any...
