What did you do today in the reloading room?

[fullstream]

Crappy day at work, needed a stress release. Loaded 7-08 with NBT 140's with N140, varget & 4350. I'm better now.

POA and POI can be shifting due to heat in the barrel. Some barrels can be much more sensitive to this. One thing that I learned years ago concerning scope adjustments is that some scopes "settle" after being adjusted. On my less expensive scopes I always dial past my desired adjustment by one click, then back up to where I wanted to be. It seems to help with the "settling" issue.

Agreed. I have a 300 WSM Model 70 that has the sporter barrel contour, and it'll hold 1/2 MOA at 500 yards, with 3 shots, but the 4th and 5th start to fly. I know it's limitations so I stick to 3 shot groups, and it's a hunting rifle, so if I can't get it done with 3 shots, I don't need to be trying at all.

Loaded up 10 6.5 Creedmoor test rounds with starline cases and 153 gr ATips over Staball 6.5. My load data shows this was the best load almost a year ago before I stopped shooting after getting covid. Hope it still shoots!

I have 3 tables, and all of them are a wreck. But the reloading bench is by far the worst

My OCD kicked in looking at your bench haha.

My reloading bench has to be spotless at all times or I get the shakes.

I got some when they were coming in stock fairly regularly, but I haven't seen them in a good while now.

That's what I refer to as an "organized mess."

I finally finished my area and got it sort of organized. Now I just need a TV in the corner and possibly some more lighting.

Thank you gents! It serves my addiction really well. It's also a conditioned space so if the wife ever figures out what I spend on it, I'll have a place to sleep. LOL

Did a final seating on a hundred rounds for my weekend trip to Dead Zero. I want to shoot their 1000 yd range.
