You're wasting no time putting the new rifle to use!

I agree, if a load isn't safe in hot weather, then there's no place for it in my rotation. My deer season can be 100+ degrees or in the teens. I need a load that works in any temp I'm likely to encounter.

Excellent work!

I went out to my hunt club today with my BIL and we got into some wood ducks. I got my limit and he knocked down two but only found one. We had a blast, even in the rain. Hoping to go again in a few days.

I've heard very good things about the 127 LRX and grabbed a box for my 6.5 PRC to try in the future. So many good 6.5 bullets!

Sounds like a scope or scope mount issue. Just to try it, have you fired a known good load through it?

Nice job and a helluva shot! Hopefully you will have many more pistol kills in your future.

Hell yeah, nice work. Load?

Awesome, looking good! I'm loving my Accumark in 257 Wby. Hoping to take it to Alabama at the end of January for a whitetail hunt. How's the gen 2 Leupold?

Np, I just wanted to make sure we were on the right track. The 170gr Partition RN is designed for the 30-30. Between that and being a round nose design, it will be a shorter bullet and require different seating depths. It would probably be a good 300 Blackout/Whisper bullet too.

I'm a little confused, this is posted in the .358 forum but you're talking about the 30 cal Partition? Just seat it deeper. You're also loading the 170gr Partition designed for the 30-30 in a 30-06. So you will need to adjust seating depth to work in your cartridge and rifle.

Seeing the copper in a new barrel isn't fun, but how is it shooting? If it's shooting just fine, I wouldn't get too hung up on it.

Haven't seen you post in a while @Guy Miner . Glad to see you back and doing some hunting. Excellent hunts and love the revolver kill.

Congrats on your first deer! No such thing as overkill.

Before I got a chronograph I never went above max and don't that often still, but I do occasionally to get the velocity I'm looking for unless I see pressure signs. Most modern bolt guns seem to be able to handle it just fine. The only rifle that I saw that would not take pressures close to max...
