smart choice i think. now you can get brass that you dont even have to form and it costs a little but then you save on components and time. that should prove to be a winner. what kind of barrel will you use?

sorry guys sometimes i forget that we tinker with guns because we can not because it makes sense to other people. like my .222 that was made by 2 old farmers in a their shop like in 1952. 20 years before i was born, they didnt like a few things about the factory guns so this one has a 1in9...
that 270 wsm is in the newest nosler book right. so if you want a 130gr bullet go with one that wont pop like the BT does out of the 270 win like the AB or PT. look in the book and find the most accurate load it is 59grs of IMR4350 and there you go. it only goes 3051 so if you want full speed...
hey daboyce67 we all start somewhere and sometime. its all good in here these are good old boys and they will help you out with whatever they can whenever they can. load data bullet choice you name it. ask pop to run the numbers for you and he will tell you pressures whatever you need you have...
nice size group nice gun. but did that not on your target say 3100fps wow that seems a little SLOW for the 257 bee my 2506 goes 3350 with alot less powder sorry maybe im reading this wrong
hey 1shot no bs my old 2506 shoots good. the guys at sierra gave me 2 loads to try when i first started using 100gr matchkings. one was 50grs of H4350, the other was 52grs of IMR 4350. I had the IMR on hand and tried it, under half inch at 100yds with a tasco 4-16 set on 12 cause it wont focus...
thanks guys i have used them for a long time and been hearing bad stuff the whole time. i first started because i got a moly coating kit from midway and noticed my velocity drop some. being young and finding something new and improved i had coated every damn bullet i owned. well when i first...
i know a guy with a 25 wssm A Bolt it does shoot great but cant touch my savage 2506. his is 6.5lbs and mine is 12lbs. we cant race cause he gets mad that his was supposed to be equal and its not. so do what you like. might i suggest the 7mm WSM 1 less S gives you alot more go. look at the...
dr mike has the best point find someone with a 308 that shoots 168gr match ammo that knows the load and try that if u can. the first time my 25-o6 showed 3800 with a 75gr VMAX i was real pleased and its true. the thing is that kind of fps is hard on things, like barrel throats
i can only say this, my savage 25-06 is a faster than what the book claims not thaty fast but up to 200 fps over book. so do the 500yd test and go with it. people dont need to believe you
