Thank you very much

I'm now trying h414 powder with. 3105 174 grain bullets. The hornady ones. Man, reloading is almost as addictive as collecting mosin nagants.

That's because the powder is laced with cocaine

Ok jonnyboy, I thought I had some brass, and found you 24 Winchester brass cases. But then I realized that you needed a way to full length size them. My work bench was a mess! My single stage press was unbolted and on the shelf, so I thought about the Lee portable hand press which works fine, but could not find my RCBS #13 shell holder. Ok, I got the bench cleaned up, polished the cases, trimmed them to proper length, chamfered them, and will finish resizing them and packaging them to mail to you no later than Tuesday. They should be worth the wait I hope so you can get a chance to try a different brand of case. Note to self: don't let that reloading bench become so cluttered!

That shouldn't be a problem. Take all the time you need. I certainly wont complain given the price

Just made my first 20 cartridges, and it all went well. I used 42.6 (3.1cc) h4895 powder, Sierra pro hunter 150 grain. 311 bullets, ppu brass and cci large rifle primers. Overall length is 2.958-2.962 (all closer too the longer end.) I'll let you know how they shoot when I can take themm out.

Did you use the Lee expander to allow the .311 bullets?

[jonnyboy091373]

No, I didn't have to. They went in fairly easily. I think this is because the loader set I have was updated from. 308 and now says bore diameter is .310.
