Hi mate if you Google Larry willis dies they have a Web page and post directly to you within days. Top service 👌 really helpful people too👍

@@mikebagnallshooting9818 Hi Mike. Many thanks for your reply and help, much appreciated. I saw in your other videos you go to Midcounties Blacking for supplies. That's my local RFD so me must live quite close. Do you still shoot the .300 and the .50?.

No worries. Yes it's not far from me I do still shoot the 300wm but not so much the 50cal. If you ask Darren about me he will probably have a bunch of story's to tell you.

Thank you. Yes I do but not for all rounds I make. Only really the target rounds

I will have a look and get you a min max charge if you can tell me what powder you want to use

Hi its the Larry willis die you can find him if you google Larry willis size die there is a link at bottom of the page. It's so worth it as I'm still using the same cases now as in that video 20 plus reloads later. The brass is still perfect

Yes it is 👍

It sure is they are brilliant mate also the rock crusher rcbs works ok but this one is better

I full size mine every time and the bulge is where the die can't pass the belt. So that really useful tool evens everything out its a great bit of kit. My cases last over 10 reloads easy after that tool. I am pushing 212 eldxs out of them too so heavy loads but every part of the case is inspected before the first stage seating the primer. If you look on other videos I do there is definitely a bulge above the belt and all perfect when they go through the Larry willis die 👌

@@mikebagnallshooting9818 oh I agree there’s a bulge. I just don’t know that it’s necessary to get rid of the bulge for it to chamber properly. Maybe in a custom built rifle like yours it is. I’m sure yours has a tighter corner then my factory built rifle. Are you able to get 10 shots without annealing? The current brass I’m working with now is on the 5th shot and I’m considering how long they’ll last.

@@mikebagnallshooting9818 are you still having trouble getting 212 grain ELD-X’s?

I got boxs of them as I bought them a few years ago as a batch. You don't need to go through all the efforts I do but but I like uniform and by squishing in the bulge it gives me confidence that my rounds are the same. It took me 8 months of building my 300 win mag of nights after work and when finally finished I developed a load that works for me out to 2000 yards so I go with what I got. I have never tried another size bullet in this rifle because the 212 eldx for me don't miss. And the size and length of my barrel make it nearly recoiless. Bare in mind this is just my way of many variations. It's what works for you. I absolutely love the 300 win mag

@@mikebagnallshooting9818 okay well I was going to offer to send you some from America but that’s not needed then. I’m also a fan of ELD-X’s and the SST’s.

Depending on how bad they are usually a wipe on the case will do and the neck gets a brush inside before lube then resized and sonic cleaned, dried reloaded and so on.

@@mikebagnallshooting9818 gotcha! Thanks for the response.

No choke at all. Zeroboy slug which I make myself. Its a Russian mold. And that there was 100 yards.

Never tried anything that heavey bro 212 eldx is the heaviest so far.

I can have a look and if I find out anything I will come back to you mate. Thank you for your kind comments. 230 gr bullets are massive 👌 I will check all my books for you. Thank you for subscribing.

It's sammi spec so they ate all uniform

Then 212 eldx hornady bullets do some hellish material damage too. These large cals are so much fun

Hey brother. The ak is a single shot single feed thats all we are allowed. Sick I no but that's the law. I have a 50 but am 1 of very few now. Most have given it up. I don't use mine much as there is only one place I can use it which is 6 hours away so I keep it locked up. I don't think this will change as the UK hate 50 cal. Thank you for your message and I hope your safe and well.

Cheers buddy. I'm hopeful to get some more up in the new year. Its been hard getting out and with other problems too my shooting has suffered. Thank you for your kind comments. Mike

Hi buddy Sorry it has taken this long to get back to you. At the min I'm so busy with work its unreal. I'm selling up most of my guns now as they aren't getting the use. I want to keep the win mag and 223 and a shotgun and probably my 22. It's getting harder to shoot in the UK now. And before long above 30 cal will be no band. I never used to read many books. Its all been through trial and error and lots of testing. I have many reloading books but use them only for a min max powder charge which I enevitabl change to suit my gun. Out of all my guns the win mag is my favourite by far. It out shoots and out performs anything I have in my armory.

Awesome mate. All the Russian slugs are good. The best are the Italian or hydrant slug. Hope this helps.

Hi mate I have a video up on my exact mix if your interested in a 5 min watch. I use a mix of tin and pure lead hope this helps

Yes they were the hydrant slugs mate. Very accurate and so much fun.

@@mikebagnallshooting9818 excellent work mate. I'm in Australia. Bought the mold but nervously awaiting availability of wads... Any tips?

Practice makes perfect and you will find what your comfortable with. Be safe keep hot lead away from water. Play around with temps and aloy mixs. Hope this helps buddy

Hi mate because of the niel waltz die my brass lasts for over 20 fires before any signs at all im yet to find a split in the neck or heads and I don't aniel them. Hope this helps

Did you manage to sort this problem out mate. Sorry so long to reply.

No need to. The case mouths have never split up to now.

Check this video out. Erik Cortina has a two part on chasing the lands. It made a BIG difference in all of my rifles: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYO7nXZ9br6NmLM

Aw mate hi hope your well. My Facebook is Mike bsgnall if you have that if not let send another message hear and I will send my number then delete 🙂

You mean the "Fluci?"

With a long throat. If you compare the seating depth to the width of the bullet they say thats enough. So if your bullet won't touch the lands before dropping out of the case mouth. Seat them all the caliber width or shorter. You will find that rifles with long throats usually don't get much more accuracy by the seating depths. Play about yourself and see how yours behaves. And as long as the bullet is seated .300 of an inch you will be fine. Don't crimp them tho I have never needed to crimp 300 wm. Hope this helps a little - mike

There are a couple more stops for i could show you. But only about case prep. A different way to pull the bullets. You can neck turn too it does help a little. Every different caliber i reload for my methods slightly differ to suit. - mike

@@mikebagnallshooting9818 thanks for responding. I’ve got a lot to learn and a few more pieces of kit and I’ll be ready!

@@KeystoneTexan if ever you need any advice about anything at all reloading please don't hesitate to contact me. I will always be hear to help you any time of day.

@@mikebagnallshooting9818 I really appreciate that! I’m sure I’ll have more than a few questions? Lol I’ve been on the fence for 20 years about getting started in reloading. I just wasn’t so sure if I was up to it or not?

What total length do you typically trim your 300 win mag brass to?
