Sorry if I duplicated a pic there. Was having a technical issue. Looks like maybe a pin missing from the ram on one of the presses. There are more boxes to go through. Big box of copper jackets...

This is an old thread, but thought I'd revive it. Just got a big box with a massive press marked ECHO. Looks like a bullet swaging press. There is a big box of jacketed bullet swaging materials. Once...

Thanks so much for the replies. I'm def going to load up some 5gr bullseye now, as I have both powders.

Howdy all. Bought some 32 handgun bullets to load up into a 7.62X54R. These are 113gr. .313 gas checked. I'm going to use 2400 and try to get something like 1200fps. I've got some starting data....

We used the bloodshot meat and bones as dog food. They love deer butchering time. Here's another harvest from the 30-06. This one was DRT. Straight down. About 150yds. There's no exit wound on...

Side by side the CZ550 has a finer finish. It was also nearly $400 more. I have a Husqvarna commercial mauser in 9.3x62. I was surprised that the recoil wasn't much worse than the 30-06.

I noticed in the pics those are Russian hogs. That's what we have in WV in the southeastern part of the state. They don't breed as often as the feral swine. Also - not as much year round mast as...

Howdy all,
Tuesday my buddy and I went hunting with our new Mannlicher stocked rifles. Mine is a M70 by Zastava in 30-06, his is a CZ 550FS in .308. He was using green box remington 150gr SP. I...

Forum: "The Barrel Works"
I'm curious as to why you would want to do that. I have both 7x57 and 7-08 and can't think of a reason to go away from the 7-08. Lots of 308 to form brass, accurate as hell, eats any bullet you load...

Funny you mention that. I have a 788 in 7mm08 and I have the same phenomenon. It's almost a crush fit with factory or new brass. Once fired the neck sized cases fit without the same tight fit. ...
