    Seating depth

    Shooting lighter bullets I could seat .005” deep and it still wouldnt touch the lands. Im guessing thats not nearly deep enough for the bullet to stay in place, so id assume there is some minimum depth youd want to hit. Sounds like it could be whatever depth feel secure

    Seating depth

    Lol well I guess maybe its non sense then. Im not sure where I read or was told that. What kind of minimum depth would you look for?
  13. You can load light target loads with hardcast bullets out of the 30-30 also. I load 5-6grs of 700x with 150gr cast bullets, super fun soft shooting range load.

    Desert Mule Deer

    Yah Ive hunted it a bunch for coues and found mule deer during the rut hunt. Guess we wanted to try something different. Turning out to be a real challenge

    Desert Mule Deer

    Thanks! Luckily there are hunts both two weeks before and a week before my hunt, so no telling where the mule deer will be. Ive glassed up some small bucks in the hill country but havent found a good area with flats in the desert to try. Ive got two more desert spots pinned on the map to check out but after that I might be shooting a small guy.

    Flat primers

    I figured so also; I adjusted the die to where it only necks down from 6.5 to 6mm so im not sure how else I could move the shoulder forward besides fire forming

    Flat primers

    Hey guys, what causes flat primers like this? Is flattening normal to some degree? These were not loaded hot, just loaded for fire forming Ar15 platform 6.5 grendel type 2 bolt 21” barrel rifle length gas tube cartridge 6mm AR 100gr core lokt 26gr H4895 also could not get bolt lock back with these and adjustable gas block. It was throwing brass about 3 o clock but not very far, maybe 2 feet. My 223 throws it 4-5ft out, thought this was interesting

    Flat primers

    Ive done 10% below for starting loads but havent done any fire forming brass from another caliber. I was un aware h4895 could go that low

    Flat primers

    What kind of charge could I go down to, like 10gr? I dont want to squib load but dont know around what pressure that would occur
  21. bowhunter-tw

    Flat primers

    This is the information I need, Thanks! Normal primers, when trying to form the cases it looked like I had .010-015 bump on the shoulder, huge bump so im guessing this could be part of it. Ive got the die set to bump .0025 after fire formed. havent shot through a chronograph, these were the first few rounds through this build for me.

    Flat primers

    What is case swipe? Edit: I looked it up. Maybe I’ll try a different powder and load weight and see if it shows any signs

    Annealing??

    Who anneals their brass and what device do you use to do it? Looking at possibly getting an annealing machine or open to other methods
  24. bowhunter-tw
