      Over trimmed brass

      It's super easy to set up.. the only reason it's overtrimming is becuase im using a .308 win trimmer to trim 30-06. It works like a charm for the designated calibers. I could change the depth of the endmill bit to NOT over trim... especially while i'm not reloading 308 at the moment.... that...

      Over trimmed brass

      Ya, i can see the movement from recoil and chambering which is why i specified it was a bolt action. There isn't much recoil either so i think it'll be fine. I could be super paranoid and use a felt marker to mark the bullets at the tip. if i go to chamber one and there is no mark, it got seated...

      Over trimmed brass

      Fair enough. That seems to be the common answer but the additive portion of this question is, what happens if there isn't sufficient neck tension? Accuracy is sacrificed, does it become a pipe bomb?! I'm assuming it becomes an accuracy thing. If so, it doesn't matter for plinking or deer under...

      The one on top is normal trim. The bottom one is “excessive”.

      Over trimmed brass

      K. So what happens if it’s too short. Say 2.473. Exaggerating a bit but does the world try to divide by zero and self implode? I won’t hold anyone but my self responsible but… I got to wonder. Billet searing depth will be off but COAL is the same. It’s bolt fed not semi auto.

      Over trimmed brass

      Mmmmm. Awesome! Crops are planted and too tall at this point. Will you be ready in mid November for some 500 yards dueling tree work!? Ps: I’ve started shooting golf balls… at 500 yards. That’s a fun hard shot.

      Over trimmed brass

      I have the worlds finest trimmer in a couple different calibers. I have one in 308 that I use on 30-06 brass for dummy rounds. I’m not loading super hot loads. What are your thoughts on firing loads that has the deck trimmed too far? I know too long is an issue because of pressure. But what...

      QuickLoad vs GRT

      I used bootcamp on my mac the other night just for this software. I also have it on my desktop but no issues for me on either OS using bootcamp.

      Rifle zero confirmed...makes #10 this year. Was zeroing my 300 win mag today after a scope shuffle. This is 165gr ttsx handload out of 300 winmag at 3,217 FPS. Making just over 3,700 foot pounds at the muzzle. Sucker was only 164 yards away... solid THID on impact.
