You are NOT kidding!!

I thought they did but I may be wrong. I do know there were plenty of MKV 's with 24" tube. Especially in the German made ones. They did make some weird stuff though. Would you believe I am working for a load for my friend's rifle which is an old Weatherby Vanguard. It has a very fancy...

Twist is 1:8.

Jim: Let me have my moment for now. since my wallet will currently allow it will you? ;)

Hard to say really. I mean look at the 7mm Rem mag vs the 7mm Bee. Too close to each other especially if the Bee has a 24" tube via Vanguard chassis. The 7mm the 300 and even the 270 Bee will do just about anything in North America providing you use a commensurate bullet for the task. My...

My levers love that stuff. The 30-30 and the 45-70 like them also. All Marlins.

90 cal! Man that is some expansion there.

As previously mentioned it would not hurt to experiment. I will be doing this shortly. Winter weather in Wyoming is not shooter friendly with winds and temps. I have a friend's 6.5 Creed that is currently loaded with Staball and CCI 250 Large Magnum Rifle primers. He needs a load for his...
