Loading up some precision .308

[nf1e]

Great day to work at the loading bench. Today's project is to fill a couple of 100 rnd range boxes with precision .308. DAG berdan cases, Tula berdan primers, 136 gr fb custom bullets over 45 gr of Varget. Supposed to be a great shooting weekend.

Where do you get Berdan primers? If there is ever another sale on 7.5 Swiss I'd buy a case if I could reload them.

I stocked up years ago when Powder Valley still carried them. Thought I had a lifetime supply, but down to around 7K and going way too fast.

Found that sd and accuracy to be much better than with any boxer I have tried over the years. I am guessing that it has something to do with the two flash holes instead of one for better ignition.
