    I tried 6 different powders, some of us try to do things properly

    And you have no idea how much brass I made
    Contact me for reloading components, brass, projectiles, powder, primers, etc

    yea mate im transitioning from using a mates reloading gear to using my own so as you would know diff scales means diff speeds and so on so just getting settled again so to speak.But yea im only using 20 cases so far ten of them have been fired 4 and 5 times and like its been said im finding the cases are looking good.ive found by the 2nd shot the cases are pretty nicely formed abe.This weeknd im going to speed them up a bit.

    They're good mate only issue I had with mine was it spotted up with some surface rust after I neglected it. Apart from that accuracy and fouling wise its mint.

    The .22 zero is a nice mild .22 cal based on the .222 rem .As you can see Iv pushed the shoulder forward by .000, improved the case by reducing the taper by .000 at the shoulder and necked it to take the .224 projectiles. The before along with the after loaded with a 55gr gameking with an unknown bc which will be sent at an unknown velocity.

    I see you have lengthened the neck .000 as well. I reckon this calibre will take off in a big way and ammo will be on the shelves in no time

    How are my scope caps coming along shifty?
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.

    No..... pay attention, I actually shortened the neck by .000. Yes you can use factory ammo which is a big plus along with dies and quality brass being no problem. The parent case also has some genuine bench rest heritage.
    Ill check on the caps in the morn.

    Very nice. That's some fancy ass wildcat you got there mate. I'd like a BSA Hunter one day. They're nice rifles.
    If you don't get Dirt, Blood or Grease under your nails it ain't a hobby

    Some credit has to go to Abe for the design, we had been kicking it around for a good 10-15 seconds.
