Thanks for the comment. NO a crimp is not needed or desireable. I have been reloading for overt 25 years and have nerer used a crimp die on any rifle cartridge.

Thank yiu!

I have two 300 PRC rifels.......The one I was using when I made this video was a stock Rruger Percision in 300 PRC with the barrel that came with the rifle. My other rifle is a custom build with a 29 inch barrel. Both performed quite well. Thanks for the coment.

No sir.......I am not an emgineer by trade.........Just an old guy that likes to make the best ammo possible. Thanks for the comment.

THANKS for taking the time to watch the video! I hope you found some things you can use.

I am buying some of these lol. What is that tool you have to brush the case neck? And at what distance do you get 0.5 MOA? Thanks

@@Teolulz i USE a nylon brosh to clean the inside of the case necks. I use a foam tipped "q tip" to apply the lube on the inside of the necks. My zero is set at 100 meters and from that I get the .50 MOA.;

@@williambrown8683 hi again! I have done everything you did in this video with the exception of neck turning and my SD is still averaging 9 FPS. did you notice any improvement in ES/SD after neck turning? wondering what am I missing.

The scope I put on my custom built 300 PRC rifle is a Trijacon 10 Mile 605x50 and I am quit pleased with it. Thank you for your comment!

First, thank you for taking the time to watch the video. The machine I use for seating is from Amp Press (shop.ampannealing.com/product/261/amp-press/) it is easy to use and set up. The idea is to get all of the rounds to look exactly alike of the graph. All my equipment is listed above if you hit the "more" in my introduction paragraph. I sincerly hope you can find something you can use!

Thanks for watching the video. I hope you found some things that you can use.

Thanks for watching! I hope you found something you can use?

@@williambrown8683 I absolutely did! I currently reload 9mm, .223, and .308 on a Dillion 1100. None of my reloading is precision given the calibers. However, I plan to expand to PRS type shooting and with that I’m going towards a 300 PRC setup. I’ve watched a lot of videos on reloading PRS type calibers, but none have been as meticulously with their methods as well as their data logging/tracking as you, and I found it quite inspiring. Thank you again!

Good luck with your new project. You don,t have to do everything I do to come up with a great load. I enjoy the reloading as much as the shooting. Glad you found something you can use.

Thank you, I will take that into consideration.

First, thanks for viewing to video. The shell plate you will need is number "B". If you load 6.5 PRC it uses the same shell plate. You will also need # 4 brass pins. There is no comversion kit that I know of. Dillon will be happy to send you what you need. Thanks again.

First, thanks for watching and the comment. For the last 10 months or so, I have been loading for a different rifle. Custom built with a 30 inch barrel on a MTD ACC Chassie. So far the load this rifle seems to like best is Berger 220 LRT seated .020 off the lands with 78.5 grains of H1000, This combo leaves the barrel at almost 2900 fps. I like to try different combinations all the time.. I hope you found something you can use in the video.

Thank you! I do have quite a passion for the sport. I hope this new year brings you good things!

In all honesty , I can't tell any difference . I have been doing this for a long time and the true test is the group size . When the round comes off the seating process they are usually no more that .0015 off center. It takes very light taps to bring them to within .0005 from center line. I use very good dies and bushings. I am currently ising a Widden body die with a SAC bushing and a mandrel. The L. E. Wilson seating die is the same. Thank you for your comment and I hope you found something you can use.

@@williambrown8683thanks for the reply… have you compared groups between two batch having runout of 0.003” and .0005”? And if there is a considerable difference can you conclude that was due to concentricity or seating depth. In this video, you didn’t show that you’ve checked for seating consistency. I use almost the same components except for the automatic seater. Le Wilson and Whidddn are awesome but I find that even with very close seating force the loaded round sometimes have seating depth difference of +/- 0.001”.

The most runout I ever get is .002 before I try to make them on center, so no I have not compared them. I think seating depth difference has more to do with the bullets. I try to shoot only Berger LRHT and yes I do get + or - .001 on depth. Doesn't seem to make a difference in group size. I don't get the same hole every shot, but I am very close to that. I experiment quite a bit. Right now I am playing with neck tension a lot. I have not had a chance to shoot these loads yet. Thank you again.

@@williambrown8683hmm…, I guess I must have gotten the concept wrong all this time. And yes, I agree that bullet uniformity plays part in seating depth consistency. But I also believe that neck tension has everything to do with it too. That is why I anneal my brass after after every firing, turn neck as uniformly as I could with the tool I have.. only a I/O lathe, my Christmas wish, can get it done right. And also, the consistency of the dry lube that’s actually helping when seating. For some reason I always try to get my seating depth down to max of +/- 0.0005” and remove or reload anything more than 0.0005” variance. So I must have wasted a lot of time and money with Ladder test and group test because I lack knowledge that +/- 0.001” depth won’t matter too much., lesson learned! Thanks.

At this time I am doing some testing with more neck tension. My 300 PRC brass from Lapua is neck turned on the IDOD to .0125. I have started using a lube fluid while neck turing and am getting a slightly better finish on the necks. I have also started useing a smaller SAC neck bushing {.321} with a diferent mandrel. My goal is to achieve a neck tension of .004. I am seeing more pressure while seating the bullets as is to be expected. I have only shot 5 rounds from this box of 50 and need more trigger time to verify my changes. Thank you for comment.

Thank you for the great comment. If you hit the drop down box , a list of all the equipment is there. Everything on that list can be found by doing a google search. I have changed a couple of things though. I now am useing a Whidden sizeing die with a Short Actions Customs neck bushing and a Giraud case trimmer. I also have had better luck with H1000 powder . I should also say that I am now loading for a custom bilt 300 PRC rifle. About my logs, I created tht log sheet on Google docs and it is saved there. If you like, send me an email address and I will send you a copy. Thank You

Thanks for watching.......I hope this short video has something you can use. One thing.....you do not have to do everything I do to get a great finished product. Thanks again.

First, Thanks for watching.......Since I neck turn my brass to about ...0125 thousands, unless your brass is this thin my codes probably would not work well for you....Each time I start another box of 50 pieces of brass, I neck turn both inside the neck and outside. Since brass varies from lot to lot and from the maker to maker. I usually shoot this new brass to fire form it, and then anneal. My codes can be anywhere from 151 to 159 on neck turned brass. I hope this little bit of info helps you.

Thanks for the comment. I hope you found something you can use?

Old hot rod saying "SPEED COSTS, HOW FAST DO YOU WANT TO GO". Same thing with reloading precision ammo! I hope you liked the video?

Thanks for watching. I have the Premier Accuracy (www.premieraccuracy.com/index.html) run out tool on every round I build. It is quick and easy. I also have the Sinclair tool and use it once in a while also. I hope this helps you. Thank You

Thank you for taking the time to watch! My RPR has over 2600 rounds through the barrel and can still achieve 1/2 to 3/4 inch groups at 100 meters. The rifle is quite heavy and I would think it would not make much of a hunting rifle. I almost always shoot of a bench with front and rear rests. The RPS has been trouble free for as long as I have owned it. I am not sorry about its purchase. I hope you found some things you can use in the video.

So many factors involved! I usually start at .020 off the lands. I load a box of 50 rounds. Each box has 10 rows with 5 rounds in each row. I label them 1 through 10. I load 5 at .020 off the lands and then shorten them .003 in each row till the box is complete. Shoot the box and find which row has the best results. There is a little more involved, but this gives you a little idea in the process the find the best seating depth. Thanks for watching!

Great comment! I am a lot like you. I don't shoot competition anymore , I just enjoy hitting the target at some distance. Thank you and I hope you found something you can use!

Kevin, first, thanks for watching the video. I have not given Zoom calls any thought. I really hope you found things is the video you can use. I have been reloading for over 20 years and still try to learn something new every day. I am more than happy to answer questions you may have.

Thank you for watching, I hope you found something you can use.

So do I.....it is the same process, just a smaller round. Thanks for watching!

Kev, thanks for watching! I have not posted a video on record keeping yet. Here is a little info that can give you a head start. I first purchase a 3 ring binder for each rifle that i shoot. Page one is the info page where I list information that I use most often. Things like distance to rifling for each different bullet I wish to shoot in the barrel. The scope height above the centerline of the bore and centerline of the scope, and the number of rounds fired through the barrel. The next pages would be the information sheet for each box of bullets I build. After I have shot the box of bullets, I place the target in the binder right behind the load sheet. This lets me refer back to the target to see how good, or bad, the load is. I will try to post a video soon .Thank You!

I shot some Saturday and was getting speeds of 2915 fps with Retumbo....There is no signs of over pressure yet. I plan to add a little more powder on the next runds.

@@williambrown8683 That's awesome. With that velocity 300 prc with those bullets literally no exageration IS as good as 338 lapua at long range. Not quite the energy but virtually identical ballistics. It beats the 338 lapua using the 250 grain berger even if shot at 3050 fps. And it is pretty much identical to 338 lapua using 300 bergers even at 1500 yards because they can only be launched at 2750. Plus you can use the magazine and don't need to single load like with 300 grain 338s. These bullets make 300 win mag and 300 prc awesome

Thanks for watching! I hope you have found some things you can use. It is a small sport and needs more followers. Thank You

Thanks for watching......If you wish to see how I build the rounds for this rifle visit my video at ruclips.net/video/k2-Pvy3yhFc/видео.html, you will probably find something there you can use.Thank You

Thanks for taking the time to watch. A lot of time goes into making a good video. I hope there is something in the video you can use~

Thanks for taking the time to watch. I hope you found something you can use!

I'm curious about this too, I believe that's a Wilson seater die and it is a AMP press. You can use just a regular Arbor press for those seater dies if you don't have the $1500 usd for the electric press. I'm curious his thoughts on using that seater tho.

Go to "300 PRC MY PROCESS" which is the complete video where there is a complete list of equipment.ruclips.net/channel/UCbfJ5YvJM17wZu_ypogXVUQ You may find things there you can use? Thanks for watching.

Looks like a 220 SMK😉…Retumbo powder

Thanks for watching......It is a pretty long list of equipment. All the equipment is listed under the video, Almost everything can be found online. Midway USA, Brownells, Annealing Made Perfect are all available just by making a google search. If you have trouble finding something I use, contact me again and I will post the web address for you. Thank You

Thanks for watching and your comments. I will take into considerations the things that you brought up and give them a try.

@@williambrown8683 keep up the great work, William. I'm on the same journey as well. I load Hornady 212 ELDX for my 300 PRC and I'm printing a good group at 100 yards with Retumbo powder and ADG brass. Velocity is at 2,951 fps with single digit SD and ES through a 26" barrel (1:8 twist).

I hope you found something you can use? You don't have to everything I do go get great results. I enjoy the loading process as much as the shooting! Thank you for taking the time to watch.
