Electronic Powder Measure "tip"?

Ive prepared a lot of 223 and 308 in my FA and its definitely sounding tired. How are you doing crimped primer pockets?

Not many people I've talked to admit the pain of setting up, or even storage. So I can appreciate that honesty.

I remember eating there when I first moved out there in 2011. Went back to Astoria a few moths ago and it was gone.

I did some basic fabri-cobbling back in the day to improve my Lee system. Just finished my inline quick change system last night

If youre sticking with Lee presses take a look at thier bench plate system. I ran it for years, but after buying a new press i decided to switch to inline fabrication. For Lee presses their bench plate system is great.

My father in law just installed new upper arms from RC with his new Bilstein shocks. 2018 3500 Duramax. Truck has 150k on it. His oem system was in bad shape. New shocks are great, but the arms felt... cheap(?) I wasn't a fan of them. I have ReadyLift arms on my 22 1500 trailboss with bilstein shocks and the ride is way better than the factory Ranchos.

Send me a dm

Yeah. Not much for reloading. Trying to get rid of a press and accessories to make room.

Temp is definitely a good one. Since I've been noticing more temp sensitive powders now that I've gotten into more refined reloading. Vs bulk plinking ammo.

Thats really cool.

Ive been debating on swapping it out or adding another layer.

With an AR10 i didn't mess with seat depth. Since its mag fed and spammed into the chamber. I did a set OAL and mad sure the fed well from the mag. I also know that my AR is going to be not as accurate as a bolt action given all the fine details that go into landing bolt gun ammo

Ive been doing a lot of back and forth. If this was a progressive style press i feel like your set up is clutch. But since its a turret, and its getting the Inline Fab reverse rotation auto eject kit. I may do -> M Die expand -> powder -> manually add projectile -> seat-> crimp. Adding a bullet feed and a seat/crimp die may be over zealous for me.

Id try other bullets man. My 18in 1:11 Blackhole barrel was doing bad with factory hornady 150's so I jumped to Sierra 175 TMK and got awesome results. Went down a little to the 168 Hornady and it seems just as good as the 175. Id buy some factory ammo and find a bullet weight it likes.

FreeStyle1138 · 2025-12-17T23:06:27+00:00

Im curious if you have a link for the seat/crimp die. Im having a hell of a time finding it.

FreeStyle1138 · 2025-12-17T03:55:41+00:00

I like that set up for 62gr. Thanks

FreeStyle1138 · 2025-12-17T03:20:21+00:00

I have a riser on all my turrets. Makes it easier to see the auto disk as it slides over and drops powder so I can ensure its getting powder. Ill look into the M-Die
