thoughts?

@Schadraquetor I don't know too much about reloading, from my understanding RCBS is basically the PSA/Ruger if that makes sense

It will function fine and you can load ammo on the cheap

For precision, look for a Lee Single Stage press

And a good powder measure

My work in progress 6.5 Grendel Gat

@Bard Thanks fam, appreciate the feedback. I'm 100% brand new to the reloading subject and this was what a guy at work had suggested to me. Currently I'm deciding how I want to prioritize my preparing efforts.

Personally I don't do reloading but this is my roommate's setup. He does precision loads for 300WM

That's pretty neat, I'm going to consider that setup if/when I get ready to buy.

If you have time on your hands and want to make a load with a badass kill shit bullet that functions flawlessly in your rifle, it's hard to beat single stage

It's just slow

But on the plus side you can make your ammo gucci as fuck with not a shitton of money invested

I don't mind slow, I have plenty of mootherfooking time.

Then there you go man

Plus I'm looking to do higher weight bullets for my ar than 55 and 62 so it probably works out.

73gr ELD's are pretty excellent

Good BC and terminal performance

I'm looking for best performance out of a 20" 1:7 barrel in 556

For 1:7 you will definitely want heavier bullets

69, 73, 75, 77 etc.

That's what I've been reading online fo sure.

On the plus side if we get this $1,000/mo relief check I can get me a nice trijicon.

Same bruh, finna cop some gucci gear

Right now I'm rockin' irons so it's not like I'm going to be pinpoint at 500 yards anyway.

The best combat ammo for an AR is Black Hills 77gr TMK

It is accurate, it is extremely dependable and it works

One can make that ammo on their own if you have a decent press

I'm very much interested in that.

As a total fucking noob to the subject could you point me to what primers/powder and bullets to actually purchase for that kinda thing?

I guess there's books n' shit but I don't know what brand is better than this or that.

Hornady and Sierra make the best bullets

Lapua and a few others make the best brass

Powder, primers, idk

Use the internet

Research

Workin' on it boiiii

Thanks for the info though, I didn't know that ammo existed.

I've got that PMC 55g shit right now which works well enough.

If you buy it factory it's a dollar a round
