      Yeah, great company and usually great products. Just a foul ball on this one.

    I'll bet you and I were in around the same time. I was in Amtracs from 80-84 with 2d AAVs at Lejeune. Went to Beirut in 83.
    I just bought one of these Forsters at Scheels because they didn't have the Hornady in stock... watching your struggles with it, I may regret it.

      Yep, we were. 8th Engr for me at LeJeune and 80-89. If you wind up wanting better than the Forster, go with the Sinclair, you'll never look back. ruclips.net/user/shorts452ahrMFHlU?feature=shared

      @@CrustyOldMarine Combat Engineer? Did you train at Courthouse Bay? If you did, then we were running around there at the same time.
      Are you shooting competition? I've been reloading for a long time and I've gotten serious about precision hand loading, but I haven't done any competition shooting despite being a 4th award expert in the Corps and even receiving an invitation for qualify for the rifle team. I see the guys that are competing and it seems like it comes down to who has the most money to spend on custom rifles, high end optics, and fancy gear. I compete with myself though, like shooting milk jugs at over 1100 yards with a .308 Win in Wyoming wind.

      @@CplSkiUSMC G4. And yes, in rifle I shoot Service Rifle with the Marine Corps League National Shooting Team / National Marksmanship Detachment; I also shoot F Open 600/1000 and you are partially correct, equipment and $$ are a factor in F Class Open to be competitive on a regional & national level. Since you already have a 308 you should look into F Class T/R (Target Rifle) where only 223 and 7.62 are permitted. It throws the "competitiveness" a little more back on the shooter & shot from a bipod, although equipment & $$ is still a thing. Or, you could shoot in "any rifle" class and shoot prone w sling, 10 and x are larger and equipment is again a little less of a factor. Regardless of your equipment & $$ just get out and compete! If you're hitting milk jugs at 1100 and are hitting them 98% of the time, you and your equipment are already competitive.

      @@CrustyOldMarine Not sure I could shoot a sling anymore. I've had surgery on both shoulders and they ache all the time. Hitting the milk jug at 1100+ in Wyoming's crazy wind isn't a 98% proposition, but it certainly makes you a much better shooter in the wind. I might have to look into it and just get out there a time or two to see how competitive I can be with what I've got. I'd love to be able to give those $10,000+ guys a run with my Savage action/Shilen barrel/Arken scope .308 Winchester. I'm still working on a quarter minute load, but I'm close at .3 MOA. That's why I got a case neck trimmer and the Forster gage, I'm looking for that last bit of accuracy that will get me to quarter minute or sub quarter minute groups.
      Semper Fi!
