Like said before. The biggest gain is increased powder capacity. Rule of thumb is about 100fps on most cartridges. But in the case of the 30-06 in a NEW current manufactured rifle and barrel can be far more. PSI max is 60K psi in the 06 yet 65K in a 270. Remember the pressure max of 60K is to...

45.5 gr TAC, Win brass, CCI LR Mag primer, 225 gr partition gives me 2450fps in my savage 116 with sub MOA. I couldn't get the speeds Mike Price wrote about, but i am more than happy. Shot a 4 point WT with it last year at 60yds. hit both front shoulders and DRT. Massive damage with a complete...

.358 225 gr polymer ballistic tip .50 250 gr MZ sabot ballistic tip .50 250 gr MZ sabot partition don't know which one of the 2 i really want more

my method is to load all cartridge's to 0.010 off the lands and vary powder charges. I take the max charge and load it and five loads below it with charge increments of 0.5g. I Always shoot the lowest charged load and work up. I see which load give me the best accuracy and adjust the seating...

225 gr .358 partitions.. Limited supplies. just got my fill and only 26 boxes left.

I tried the 125 BT and RL15 in my savage 30-06. Great light recoiling load at somewhere around 3000fps. My wife loved it. Cases were very sooty if i tried to lower it any so i would recommend staying near maximum. But always work up a load as every rifle is different.

I finally tried it last week. No chrono results yet, but the max charge of 84 gr ( OCD i have to exactly weigh none of that by volume crap) gives 1.09" group in my TC Omega and 250gr Barnes TMZ. With 777 would get 1.5" groups with150gr but youd have to smash the ram rod off a tree to get the...

I have a question.. Is there any reason instead of lubing the inside of my case necks for FL sizing that i can't just remove my expander ball every half dozen cases and just put some lube on it? I've been doing this lately and had no problems but i only reload about 24 cases at a time.. I was...

I figured that was what happened back in NOV FOTIS... :wink: I went to camp for 2 days. Came back and what supply they posted on Friday was gone by sunday.. Wasn't making that mistake again...

Few... almost missed it again..358 225 partitions go fast. looked yesterday after noon, nothing .... Look this morning 3 boxes of 25 (over-runs).. i like the blems, but as i had 4 bullets left i couldn't afford to be picky.. So i bought them all.. honestly i would have bought 8 if they had it.

i wish they weren't in 300gr.... I like 250gr myself..

That's my luck... go to deer camp and the bullets i've been waiting 3 month's for are in stock...LOL...Oh welll... just have to wait some more.

did i miss it? I see 225gr .358 partition seconds are now on SPS, but they say out of stock.... Hopefully that means they're gonna get some soon, not that they had some and i missed it...

unfortunately both those site don't really have any when i called.. huntington has a little diclaimers about how the inventory is nearly depleted and to call.. i'll keep waiting. just wanted to make sure i didn't miss anything like they were discontinued....

i need the .358 225gr ,has part numbers 44810 & 44800. can i buy right from nosler? but i don't recall every supplier being backordered for months, just to have that date come up and it get pushed back month's again..Nachez scared me with the unavailable in the future comment.
