Very nice

Figured out my dilemma on where to put tool box. Just needs a little trim and paint I believe this will work beautifully.

Yes he was. I just wish his memory was still intact so we could talk about stuff like that. Thank you for the compliment

Here's side view of reloading area where tool box will be and storage where back will be

Ok you guys are to nice. That one pic was taken before any reloading was ever done in that little space. Granted if I didn't keep up on organization a little bit it was impossible to get anything done. I'm having a problem trying to find a place for the maple cherry and mahogany tool box I...

I havnt been on in quit a while. Been darn busy at work plus I've did a little expanding of my reloading room. Still have some work to finish but I'm getting close. I went from a little 4 1/2' x 6' to 11'x 8 1/2. The little room was just fine but now that I've gotten so much more equipment and...

So do they measure .224 or are they smaller?

So I'm gonna start loading some 5.56 for an AR that is not here yet. Just getting going while I wait. Ordered some bulk 55 gr fmjbt. Some first breech and some hornady. Just want to make sure that the .2235 and .223 diameters are ok. Everything I can find on the correct diameter is .224. Yes...

I just found this from doing a search. Someone posted it on Rockslide I believe it was

Yea I have that app but it doesn't give me this specific bullet. I'm not comfortable enough with my limited knowledge and experience to just try something close. I'll keep researching and looking and asking until I find some data I feel comfortable with. Thanks for taking the time to help me...

I grabbed what I could find. Just starting with the 6.5 prc. I have Berger eol eh 156gr. I have imr 4350 Ramshot hunter Viv. N560 I have BR-2 CCI 200 Win lMRP I also have some Nosler 140 ballistic tips but I have load data for...

I will jump all over your advise right now just because I really like (that much better). My 7mm08 does not have a suppressor on it. Does the one on the 6.5 make a big difference?

I was already ahead on that game. I had ordered a short action mag and a long action mag and a bolt stop for my other tikka from Mt. Tactical. The short action mag gave me plenty of room to grow in the 7mm08. So I have a long action mag and stop already. Lucky me 🤔

Got an update. Went with what I know. Tikka t3x lite veil alpine in 6.5 prc. Well the tikka part I know the 6.5 prc is new and unknown to me. Projectile is a bit smaller in diameter but the place to stuff the powder is rather large compared to my 7mm-08's. Havnt had a chance to send anything...

Might have to hit ya up for some off your recipes. Been browsing the tikka site and I sure do love my tikka. If I go the 6.5 prc road it will be a bit to get all my dies and such accumulated. I guess there is always factory ammo until then. After loading my own factory just doesn't seem like...
