Scopes are a personal thing what one likes the others hate i had 3-9 50 lit ret paralex adjust very good scope for price my mates all had s+b etc but when they dropped their rifles they would cry its true you pay for what you get but me i would rather brake a £300 scope that dose the job as well as a £3,000 one in the field rifles get bashed.

Trimming Brass...
Winchester replied to DeerhoundLurcherMan's topic in Reloading and Gun Maintenance
Thats how you do it pal get some digi gold scales and a powder trickler to measure the powder to the grain i found 50 grain winchester combined tec worked best for me with a 26grain load cci primes. I wouldnt crimp as it send the pressure through the roof and could cause failure of the breach, better safe than sorry. what factory round dose it like, dismantle one weigh the powder head that will give you a base line to work from good luck -

What your getting into can be a minefield. IF i was you i would get a good reloading book for the cal your going to re-Load Norman Clark at rugby dose them for about a fiver. Most of the leg work has been done for you. Then its up to you to find head weight ,primer powder that your rifle shoots best .Do you know some one that re-loads ? If so ask them if you can learn from them. This re-loading lark can cost a lot of money to find the right combo for your rifle dies etc aint cheep a rule of thumb dont get the cheepest. RCBS are good value for money, It can cost thousands of pounds. The best, -

How you cleaning your brass ? I always pop the used primer and resize, clean inspect each case( every one) went through the trimmer as this also cleaned the primer hole. cleaned inside of case,( brushed out)after coming out of cleaner . Inspected put in a loading tray. (GOOD ONES ONLY) If you are not sure its a good case, be safe bin it, but crush it first. Dont be tempted to load it. Dont be afraid to ask theres always someone on here will help you -
Thanks all hope i can be of some help to you all.
