It took awhile to get out to the range after having that knee surgery. Nor my dominant shoulder is acting up again. I remounted my scope and started wearing my glasses and groups have tightened up. 🤯 Getting old sure has its downsides. 😥 The upside is that it won't be all that long before I start getting that sweet senior discount. That trimmer collet Dima made sure makes things easier. Enough whining. Seating depth and powder choices/charges can make a pretty big difference. I wish I had a slower twist rate than 1:8, because I've been told it makes a big differen, though that's much easier to find in bolt action than AR. I think Dima is using a 1:12 bolt action. I was told 1:14 when I bought the dies. Like I've said, seating base to ogive gives better consistency, and my jump is HUGE (somewhere around .080") because swaged bullets are short and I seat to the base of the neck for max tension. I've started dabbling in zinc a little for 300 BO & 300 HAM'R, but haven't spent a lot of time on it yet. HAM'R is picky about what bullets fit, so mostly factory there. Steel molds with the right profile are limited. With Hodgdon buying up everyone and raising prices Vihtavuori finally made sense, so I've been playing with that too. Now I get all the hype over it. I've filmed some vids, but just never got around to editing and/or uploading. Either life, laziness or dissatisfaction with the footage got in the way. That and some misplaced/deleted(?) files (organization just isn't my strong suit).🙁 Hope all is well on your end. Happy shooting

Pretty good other than mean old Arthur Itis eating away at me. Can make it difficult to take advantage of the few nice days we get here. This vid shows that I had at least one pretty productive day. 😆
