I'm one of the holdovers from a slower time. My reloading is pretty basic, tedious, but pretty accurate. This combination of parts is going to become 6.5 Creedmoor ammo to be flung outta a 30" Brux barrel: Lapua SRP brass - new Sierra 142 Match Kings Hodgdon H4350 As you can see from the picture, I'm using an arbor die - Micron Precision - from Bullet Central. There was a time I would roll a round across the table to see if the tip wiggled, kind of a poor man's concentricity test. That doesn't …

Match Director Extraordinaire Darrick Davidson did it again. At the Rush Lake range he put on a match that went as seamlessly as any match can go. He was as everywhere as anyone can be.
