A couple of cans bite the dust.

Using a Labradar and a Shotmarker system, we did a ladder test for a Remington 700 with two different bullets, two different powders and five variations of each combination in 0.5 gr increments. 168 gr ELD-M, 168gr Amax, BLC2 and RL-15. We got a couple good groups, but also a lot of spread on most of the recipes.

In this video I do a comprehensive but not detailed list and demo of all the steps that I use in reloading.

Last year my daughter and I drove 400+ miles from Boise Id to Crater Lake on Memorial Day Weekend. This is a scenic but also long video (90+ minutes) of that trip. Crater Lake portion is about 1 hour in.

Spent a day shooting at Sac Valley Shooting Center with a number of hunting rifles, 3-783s in 30.06, 308W and 6.5 Creedmoor. Also shot two Savage Model 110s in 280 AI and 250 Savage. Not my best day of shooting.

This is lengthy video of how I reload. I have since added a wet tumbling step immediately after the last vibratory bowl polishing. This eliminates the primer pocket cleaning. I also 100% measure case length prior to deciding if I will trim or not.

Some ladder testing with a 300PRC, 280 AI and some plinking with 308, 300 BLK and 5.56.
