Reloading Range Brass

the S&B we had in .308 was far and away the worst brass Ive struck...actually ripped arm off press resizing...made to do it if too much pressure. threw it all away after one go....

Top 3 in group before adjusting scope with gave me the answer I was looking for.

Thanks Hugh. That's why I stayed with the previous owners recipe although it seems I typed that on my cellphone & without my glasses! It is ADI AR2206H with Hornady 55gr SPSX. Cheers.

its that close to my old go to recipe its not funny...and given that I was using milserp brass,its for all intents n purposes ,the same load.
stick with it,its a keeper.

Will do Micky Duck. I previously used Benchmark 2 for 223 but see I can use it for 303 also. 150 gr projectiles.

Vertical stringing is where the group is much taller than it is wide, often but not always caused by variations in velocity. Horizontal stringing can be due to wind.
