one of my nicknames is ‘Big Bore Bill’ and i have lived that credo for 40+ years. I considered 9mm in a pistol and whimpy and ineffective for self defense. i lived by caliber plus velocity plus bullet placement equals longer range first shot kills. caliber matters. As a result ANYTHING less...

So, the thread is not dead yet lol. my gunsmith tried to rechamber the 270 to 270 weatherby, and his reamer pilot did not reach the rifling. My chamber has a .600” throat, so it takes a pilot that is longer. His reamer was more than 1” short. I called my buds at pacific tool and gauge and...

so i got it installed. the good news is, i have great baselines for the 175tgk. the bad news is, there are no parameters for my chamber. its not a greek tragedy. it was noted by another post that 24n41 pressure is pretty low. the other side of that is, if i use cci250 primers the pressure will...

just bought 4 lbs of retumbo. i'd like to find a load that will let me use magnum primers and 165,170,175 .277 bullets in my chambering. faster than 24n41....... slightly. graf and sons have new shipments.

been worried about getting scammed by the us quickload. finally got a tracking number for tomorrow. i'm pretty stoked to get data for the current 270 long/fast twist, and 270AI as well. 270 STW is the extreme version with my barrel. its hard to find a gunsmith to do that chamber in alabama...

thats nice. i have a ar-10 in 308win. when i bought the bolt and carrier, i ordered a .534 bolt for my favorite 350 remington magnum i shoot in a pistol. i intend to buy a 350 rem mag upper/or barrel and figure out how to get many rounds into a MAG. so i feel safer with a semi auto belted mag...

yes, and rust is inert. imo like adding cream of wheat for fireforming. should just fire out. i have IMR that is 'no telling' how old, and it shot fine 5 years ago. 4198 and 4895. i'm gonna go look inside the can now lol.

ordered quickload. never needed it even for unusual loads. hated to buy it for what might be just a few loads. even ackley might not work. -bill
