    160 grain Partitions in a 6.8 Western

    Hey Gerry sorry for not responding. I didn't get a notification about your response or I missed it. I have run the 165 ABLR very nicely in both my 6.8 westerns. MagPro used to be my go to for my 270WSM but I read some nice things about Ramshot Grand and have put together some nice loads with it...

    powder profile , Grand

    Cheers. I was looking at that, thinking it could be a starting point. I may load a test ladder today to take to the range this weekend.

    CCI BR2

    You are not changing primer type to a magnum. BR's or match are only held to a higher quality standard in factory processing. You will only have more accurate ignition. Cheers

    powder profile , Grand

    Any chance you can share some data? I'm thinking it should be a good powder for a 26" barrel and ABLR 168's but can't find any published results yet.

    NOSLER FACTORY BLEMS

    Nosler has not published anything yet. Lee has published data for 170grn jacketed bullets with their Pacesetter dies. The higher velocity powders they list are Retumbo, MagPro and Ramshot Magnum. How have you made out so far with your loads? Cheers

    RL 26 Discontinued?????

    I had a variety of RL powder loads that were great, high velocities and tack drivers. I've been referring to Reloader as Pixie Dust for two years now. I read in some forum that there was some litigation going on in Quebec that had caused them to stop selling/exporting to that province. Then came...

    6.8 Western Nosler loaded factory load data.

    Cheers. I was looking at your pics and was thinking that had to be a B.C. bear before I saw where you are from. I just got back from an unsuccessful Moose draw for 5-1 I saw so many does it was crazy. I saw the biggest black bear I have ever seen. Looked like a black Volkswagon beetle ripping...
