Rob,

You could definitely be very surgical hunting with that rifle combo...That looks like a PRECISION RIFLE for a TARGETED TROPHY!!!...Have you taken any game with it yet?...

Its AWESOME!

BTW, the photos are stunning once again!

VERY STUNNING!!!

Sorry, to sound like a broken record about this all the time but its true! wink

I'm just calling it like I see it!!! grin

Great job!!!

Fantastic photo`s!

Small question, What type of die are you useing to load for it? The necks appear to have been sized with a collet type sizer such as Lee makes.

Ol Joe -- Thanks for the comments on my pictures.

Those marks were actually made by the previous owner of the brass. I bought these very cheap and they all had 2 firings on them. I personally think it was just lack of lube on the sizer that created the marks. But could be a collet as you suggest.

I use Redding Competition bushing style dies, both neck and full body depending on which rig I'm loading for.
