My only snag with this is.....It seems like getting more than 43 grains of powder in the case is not possible? Do people just compress and crimp?

Browning X-Bolt arrived yesterday (demo rifle) and priced right after Christmas. I have 4 x boxes of Winchester 165 grain ABLRs and after a couple of shots to get it on paper, I flung out a nice 3/4" group right off the hop. Recoil is light, its naturally accurate and I have to admit, whats not...

Zombies? that is a great idea Guy, the 307 would be perfect for that:LOL::ROFLMAO:

Reviving the post and just purchased (horse traded LOL) a clean 307 Winchester AE and I really like it. Ammo is not the best selection but I did see the load data with RL-17 WOW! In the research I have done, no one has tried RL-17, Big Game, or W-760? Thinking the powder capacity with a deep...

Soooo the Savage Ultralite with the Proof barrel, has been excellent. StaBall 6.5 (59.0 grs) Lapua brass and Fed210GM primers along with 168 grain Nosler ABLRs has shown to produce nice sub one inch groups easily! The ballistics are impressive as well with some serious long range energy.

I have such a variety of rifles and reloading material, and no need to justify the reason why, you can't have too much right? Anyways, looking down the line up (243, 257 Bee, 6.5 PRC, 300 Win Mag, 300 RUM, 35 Whelen and dads old 30-06 in a clean Belgian BAR, I just wanted a nice, light walking...

Yes sir.

New powders have definitely assisted the 35 Whelen for sure. Using CFE 223 I have lofted 225 grain Game Kings and Accubonds well over 2800 fps out of my 24" gain twist barrel. I could push more but why....its a hammer. The loads I worked up for the 200 grain TTSX were 2950 fps in the standard...

The 35 definitely performs....but that quick load data hmmmm I load my Whelen, RP brass, Fed 210GM primers and 225 grain Accubonds @ 67 grains of CFE 223. I do not have flat primers! I get it, it's not the only indicator but that is interesting for sure. BTW 67 grains is a common load from...

Several new powders are very effective CFE 223 has 225 grain loads over 2800 fps and Varget is just about 2800 fps with 225 grain Accubonds.

Rl-26 works very nicely.

I love the Whelen, load pretty much all 225 grain fodder, with Varget I did manage to hit 2800 fps and get the partitions and Accubonds to hit the same spot, bonus! Mine is a 24 inch gain twist on a Remington Action done by the oldest barrel make in Alberta, shes MOA with Sierra GK's...

Been loading my new Whelen for about a year now, started with Varget 59 grains under a 225 grain Accubond or Partition has been very accurate and consistent. over 2800 fps (24 inch gain twist 1:12 barrel) I do have some 250 grain Swift A frames and Speer Sp's to play with. I tried the lighter...

Long range 300 win mag loads....I would look at 75.5 grains of H1000 under a Berger 215 grain variety. Carries the energy waaaay out there. I would also look at 212 ELDX under 8133 (80 ish but confirm that its warm) if you plan to shoot out to 900 yards look to non bonded heavily constructed...

77-79 grains of RL-26 ADG brass, Fed 215GM is pushing 3200fps 26" barrel. 180 grain Accubond .
