    What to do with over pressure rounds

    I use the hornady collet bullet puller. It is a very simple operation once you figure it out the first time. I do not like the plastic hammer method. I did not have good success using it and mine is now collecting dust. After I pull the bullets I then run the brass through an expander mandrel...

    H4350 Lot to Lot Consistency

    Thanks to everybody above for their insight and information. The humidity factor was not on my radar at all. But since you guys brought it up I started looking into it. I found this article: https://chronoplotter.com/2021/08/19/how-does-humidity-affect-powder/ My situation makes sense if the...

    Maven B1 vs B2

    I recently purchased both the B1.2 10x42 and the B2 9x45 from Maven. After comparing the models for a few days the B2's are getting returned. The glass was much clearer and brighter on the B1.2. The FOV "might" be slightly better in the B2 but not nearly enough to compensate for the increased...
