Yesterday: wasted three hours setting up to load .308 for a friend's Browning pump - thought I had a batch of .308 150 gr SPs. Flailed around trying to get the measure to throw 44.0/Varget, finally got it, loaded the first two and did a chamber Czech - SPs stuck in throat, flung Varget all over. Czeched my caliper and zero was .003 off, SPs were .311s. Went to bed. Today: dug out more expensive actual .308 150 gr SSTs, couldn't get brass from M118LR nor M852 to chamber even with the right diameter bullets, flailed around some more finding FC brass and a small base sizer that would actually get the brass to make the trip into the chamber and allow the lockup to work. Loaded the batch and delivered them. Came home, watched movies with the dog while sipping a Bahama Mama. I love my B92 and B53 but will never own a BPR. Now he wants some .30-30s...
