This channel is just plain amazing. I have been chasing my tail for years with mixed results. In just a week of finding your content I have a much deeper and more simplified understanding of the endeavor. Well done Erik, you are a huge asset to the community.
I love the honesty especially being a new shooter. I don’t want to be doing anything extra if it doesn’t matter.
Man you are killing it! Thanks for all youre doing to help us small guys learn what's really needed
Erik, man I’m loving the interviews especially the short ones that are easier to catch!
Hey Erik and David
Awesome session thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience Guys , I learn heaps from these interviews , keep em coming Mate .
I’m so impressed with these videos!!!
Yes!
More clips, please!
Erik, I'm gonna nominate the following for an interview (not in order of importance): Barry Holcomb, Tyler Pope, David Tubb, Matt Kubic, Mike Francis, Danny Biggs, and Russ Theurer for interviews. All three are legends...at least in their minds!!
Love your content keep it coming thank you for sharing your knowledge
Thank you, Erik David, for sharing these great tips 👍
Thanks again for sharing another few tips, will give them a try to see if it makes a difference for me.
Thanks for the video.
I've gotten to the point that I NEEDED this video! Spending so &#^$ed much time on case prep that I have no life any longer. Nice to know that I'm not committing a sin by NOT fooling with the primer pocket, wet tumbling. I don't let my brass get cruddy enough to worry about tumbling. Just anneal, FL size (0.002 bump), check case length and trim (maybe), case mouth mandrel expand to ~0.0015 neck tension then load. MAYBE I'll measure bullet length and sort, maybe not (gotta think about that). Gotta re-think neck turning.
I've found the most dramatic improvement on my group size is reducing the number of cups of coffee I've had before hitting the range. That'd be an interesting graph to make, group size as a function of number of cups of coffee. I think this is why my groups have gotten so big in the Winter (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it)
My theory is it only matters when the situation is really bad. Sorting brass by weight used to work for me... because I had mixed headstamps from various off the shelf manufacturers... then I bought new brass and threw out the old stuff... now sorting brass doesn't matter. Primer pockets don't matter until they're _really_ dirty. Annealing doesn't matter until your neck tension differs significantly (after brass is really work hardened). I think many of these things came from an era when ammo production was really sloppy (lots of variance) and now that variance is gone, none of those steps to rectify or control variance need to be taken. I still clean brass though... 'cause I like how it looks.
I’ve learned a lot from your channel. Saved me time and money. Thanks for the videos. 👍🏻
Thank you for your videos sir.
Hi Eric, I'm a Benchrest Shooter, have been doing well at 600 yards. Just won in Sacramento last month. Interesting conversation you have here. I guess in my world I do a lot more than you guys do. Always looking for a smaller group.
At the end of the day I see two questions: what has a big impact on flatness and what is so insignificant. The calculation models and what there is to show how the scattering circle narrows theoretically is all theory. At the end of the day, the only thing that counts is taking photos and reading the weather correctly. Anyone who has this experience has not only shot a lot, but also produced a lot of ammunition and gained experience. Especially in bad weather conditions, beginners often try to optimize completely pointless things instead of shooting in order to improve their wealth of experience. They prefer to stay at home in bad weather and optimize their ammunition ( My opinion)- Thanks for a very good video and sorry for my bad english
Really enjoy these interviews!! I think I can pass on cleaning brass, but primer pockets!! Nooooo. LOL I guess I'll try that too. Thanks for sharing this incredible information. Much appreciated.
I shot short range bench rest for 20 years. Shot next to the likes of Tony and Faye Boyer Walt and Eunice Berger, Mr Dowling, Fred Hasecuster, Speedy Gonzales, I guarantee all those folks cleaned their brass, uniform their primer pockets, clean their primer pockets. obviously turn the wall thickness on the case necks... all that good stuff. Once you start doing that, I think you just get into a habit of doing that. You don't need to do that when you're shooting and loading hunting rounds. I think people get way too caught up in "hey let's play benchrest shooter", especially after you have played bench rest shooter.
20 years after that, I am still trying to get out of my old Pinterest habits of making everything perfect. I will say this about that; it doesn't hurt.
So what if it takes me 2 hours longer to load 20 rounds?
Really enjoyed this TH-cam video, every second of it. 🇺🇸
Every shooter has a secret, I like it when they tell you and then you realize you're not crazy !!
Ya I have never sorted by length but it totally makes sense.
Always have my reloads blessed by a Cherokee Shaman.
Regards cleaning brass and primer pockets. I sonic clean my brass which deep cleans ensuring the same internal volume. Takes an extra 90 mins to clean and dry. I use Berger bullets and believe I cannot improve on them in any way so why mess
Hey Eric, how many times do you load/prime your brass before the pockets get too gouped up? Is there a limit for you?
I clean my brass with scotch. Drink scotch , while I wipe my brass with a lint free cloth.
When viewing Bergers, I see how the tip may look a little rough , angular almost. How do you account for this when measuring. If I spin while measuring I see values changing. Do you ever think about flat sanding down tips on Emory paper ? Weights are within .3 grains for a 140 grain 6.5 for my 260. Thank
Hornady bullet comparator meat base bullet to ogive n base cartridge to bullet ogive when loaded
So measure and sort your bullets overall length. Now when you seat your bullet, do you still go by overall length (C.O.A.L) or are you measuring base to ogive?
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say base to Ogive
Do you ever take the coriolis or the spin of the earth into account? Ie, more north to south you shoot you have to compensate rightward drift. When shooting east the bullet will not drop as much as it would when shooting west.
They have the luxury of sighter shots so I doubt they spend much time worrying about coriolis or spin drift. First round hit ELR or maybe PRS need to be concerned with those details.
Wind is a much larger factor.
U have to once you start shooting 800-1000 yds and beyond!
Erik, how much does 1/10 of a grain of powder effect your point of impact?
Depends on the yardage
Wow! I have an ultrasonic toothbrush. Still evaluating it.
Soooo, Erik Cortina doesn't even trim his brass?? You've got to be joking. I tried the wet cleaning thing, it IS a pita. Went back to dry media. Love the videos!
I trim every time.
And all this time I have been sorting Base to Ogive. LOL😅
Erik, are you still building barndominiums?
Cortina is rising
