Yep I have read the article. It was in depth and very informative. I'm looking for real world opinions.

Yes brakes are loud but I always wear plugs.

I own a savage heavy barrel 308. It's threaded and ready for a new brake. I've looked at the APA Fat Bastard and the Rat Worx Big Chubby. I'm wanting maximum recoil reduction and minimal concussion...

I like the spring loaded depriming die by Dillon. I use Redding dies for rifles.
I don't have the 300BLK yet. My 308 is bolt action. When I do buy the 300BLK, I was thinking AR would be a good choice over bolt and something different.
I'll give it a try. I was hoping for something g heavier but 160gr should work in my savage.

Tried this post in a different forum. Maybe I'll get a suggestion here. I currently shoot a Savage model 12 .308 heavy barrel using varget and 178gr match bullets. Can anyone suggest a mold that...
I currently shoot a Savage Model 12 heavy barrel with 1/10 twist. Shoots Hornady 178gr match bullets great. I use 41.5gr of Varget. Any suggestions for a non-tumble lube mold that would work with...

Red n sticky grease helps. Also vaseline.

Gotta vote 550 too. Have one love it. I had a Lee loadmaster boat anchor and don't miss it.

Both? Lol. The wife would have a heart attack. She treats me good and usually doesn't say anything. But this time around its gotta be one or the other.

Tax refund came. So.... should I buy a lube sizer or a nice casting furnace (RCBS pro melt) instead? I pan lube which is OK and I have a Lee bottom pour pot. Thanks for the replies.
Forum: Casting Equipment
Yep agreed. Very good advice heavymetal
Forum: Casting Equipment
Why doesn't anyone pick the Saeco? I like the spring loaded lube resevoir. I don't mind the extra expense of the dies.

So why doesn't anyone ever pick the Saeco? I use Redding dies all the time. I don't mind the extra expense of the dies.
Forum: Casting Equipment
To those that one the Lyman 4500, how stoutly built is it? I've read reviews where the linkage gets sloppy and isn't as nice as the RCBS.

If I had high volume, I'd buy the Star but don't. I possibly lube 200 bullets at a time.
Forum: Casting Equipment
$325 for the Star and for the money you shouldn't have to use lead shot to close some of the lube holes.
Forum: Casting Equipment
Star is nice but for the expense, I don't believe you should have to use lead shot to fill some of the lube holes.
