Thread: buying reloading gear

Greetings Big Bear,
Depends what powder you are using. If you are using single base powder like ADI the Federal 215 is good. I definitely would not use the Winchester magnum primers as pressure tests in Handloader for the 7mm Rem mag and 300 Win mag have shown them to run up pressure without velocity increases.
Regards Grandpamac.

I've used 210m primers in 7mm rem mag to better results than the 215m primers in terms of ES. But accuracy was much the same except I had to reduce powder with the 215ms.

bigbear have you tried Andy @ the Hunting & Reloading Center (HRC) in Gisborne on Gladstone rd opposite Countdown? He usually has one of the better stocks of reloading gear/consumables in Gizzy and can get stuff in at request if its available in country

@Cappa I have tried him and he had nothing, i just placed a order else where so hopefully it will arrive in the next couple months

Gunbits in Opotiki has good stocks of reloading supplies. Some powders are out of stock like others.Worth a try.
