reloading

Does anyone have any experience of N135 with 110 / 130gr .308 bullets? Good? Bad? Indifferent? Any hints or tips? I'll be working up a load shortly with it so am keen to hear of others experiences / opinions. Thanks

Does anyone know where I can buy some Barnes TTSX 130gr bullets to reload in .30 calibre? I've run out and can't seem to find any more anywhere! Thanks Tom

Any good loads for 58 grain v max in 20 inche barrel 243 for fox

Ok so first thing is first I don’t have a chronograph (yet). Currently thinking I may get one but also wondering if there is a point I reload my 6.5 Creedmoor with 34gr of N-150 in Peterson SRP brass. Using a hornady 143gr ELD-x seated to the max COL (recommended by hornady) of 2.800” which is...

Just putting the finishing touches to my reloading area the press, bench primer and powder despenser are all bench mounted in an outside unheated shed. My worry is rust and damp might start to set in. Does anybody else have their setup outside like this and how do you find it? Any ways you keep...

Just wondering what other folks are using for lubricating their cases. I will be full size resizing every time.

Hi all, I’m finally getting round to working up a non lead load for UK stalking, all species, in 30-06. I’m currently using RL15, 178gr ELDX heads, which I’m really happy with and find hugely accurate with great stopping power and not very much meat damage. I have shot the federal trophy copper...

Dear all, my name is Christoph Dehnhardt, I am based in Germany. I joined the forum, because I am conducting a study in various countires (European + South Africa) to assess the availability (or the unmet need) for rare caliber ammunition. This study is commissioned by a group of hunters, who...

Hi I am trying to work out costs of reloading for the. 222 rem I currently don't have any scales for measuring powder I'm just using a wee Lee scoop I got with a kit, can anybody tell me the average number of rounds that can be reloaded from a 1lb tub of powder so I can work out how much each...

Hi All, One of my landowners has asked that I only use lead free ammunition going forward. I've therefore ordered some lead free bullets from Fox for me to reload. I've gone for 150gr bullets in .308. I'll be reloading them in Sako brass with CCI primers with N140 powder. Has anyone got any...

Hi There, Does anyone know what bullet heads Sako uses in their 150gr .308 Superhammerhead ammunition? Thanks Tom

I reload for .357 Magnum using a variety of powders and bullets and I've noticed that some of my groups have a very distinctive vertical grouping, as opposed to the more common cluster around a central point. Does this signify anything?

Hello, after some advice please. Fairly new to reloading and enjoying the journey. Found a good safe load, I am very pleased with the accuracy and no pressure issues. But after firing, when cleaning and inspecting the fired cases, I am often finding case marks on the 300 Win Mag brass as per...

Evening all Thanks again for the previous advice, being new to reloading it was much appreciated. I have been through the whole process and loaded my first test batch in 308 with N140 powder, fed 210 primers, 150 grain nosler BT in once fired federal brass, all to 2.800” OAL as per nosler book...

Reloading a .308Win with 150g Hornady Interlock ST and Hodgdon Varget. The hornady manual states 35.9g to 44.9g of varget powder. The Hodgdon datasheet for a 150g BT bullet 44.0g to 47g. while the Interlock bullet is not a BT I am surprised at the weight of powder difference. This is not the...

Good evening Planning to start reloading. Read some great posts on here and watched plenty on YouTube. Before I invest, would welcome any advice on reloading presses as keen to buy once and get a quality piece of kit that will load both my 308 and 300 win mag, with the right dies. Probably...

Hi, I've been trawling around the internet and I'm struggling to find any "good" load data for the Vectan SP7 Powder. Their website has a very basic data table, covering maybe around 5 weights/bullet types. https://www.grafs.com/uploads/technical-resource-pdf-file/20.pdf I'm going to load...
