Prayers sent. Paul B.

"Since it was way above book, I probably won’t try and never repeat the load. I was thinking originally I did it with 59.5 grains of H4895, but It was with H322. It still was under Sammy Max 35 Whelen pressure." One thing that most people don't know is that when Remington submitted the .280...

Well if big game fall under the anything edible from Antelope and der on up I wa ould also add wild pigs and I would very much like to take a bobcat and Mountain Lion for the cook pot. I know people that consider both very tasty but will pass on bears. I haven't eaten any of the three but...

Sounds like it might work OK. I use the 225 gr. TSX in my .35 Whelen at 2710 FPS MV and it'll pass through an elk from exhaust pipe to appetite. I thought I'd try it in one of my .358s but I have to seat it too deeply for it to fit on their magazines. Bummer. Once I went to the Whelen the .358s...

I get those questions every time I see one of my doctors. he last time I saw one was this last Thursday. I looked him in the eye and asked, "What do you think? You see me just about every two weeks and ask me the same questions and I give you the same answers. Do you really think anything has...

I don't doubt you. My 22" .308 is a Winchester M70 Youth Ranger and has a 1 in 12" twist and I've gotten very useable groups ftom that rifle with the 220 gr. Sierra RN. And people insist that a 220 gr. bullets is of no use in a .308. That's funny as 2400 FPS is what most ammo companies...

I have five rifles chambered to the .300 Wn. Mag. Four are Ruger #1s and the other a Winchester M70. I too wanted to go with a 200 gr. bullet and did the initial work using the 200 gr. Speer Hot Core. The good news is all five will shoot that bullet sub MOA well past what anyone will be shoot at...

I used H4831 for a while then switched to Winchester's now long gone WMR. It gives basiclly the same velouty and better accuracy in my .270 Rifle. It's also a winner in my .280 Rem. and .300 Win. Mag. I have no idea why it's a disaster in the 30-06 but even Winchester's load data showed it as...

Of the ones shown the following is close to results I get in three rifles with no apparent pressure related problems.. +04.0 96 47.84 2804 2619 54628 10712 100.0 1.131 !DANGEROUS LOAD-DO NOT USE! My load is as follows. 48.5 RL17/48.5 gr./2847 FPS Brass is Winchester, Winchester WLR primer...

I've played with H4350 in the 30-06 some but I use Winchester brass and a Remington M700. I use a BDL and a Classic, both rifles having 22" barrels. The bullet though was the Hornady 180 gr. Spire point. I did work up to a hair over 2800 FPS with 58.0 gr. H4350. he BDL was made in 1978 and the...

I have plenty of Partitions to play with but would like a better selection of Accubonds to use. Paul B.

Well I'll admint I somestrng prejudices against anythinfrom GM. It all stemed from the time I bougth a 1958 Impala convertibled, candy apple red. The garthest that hunk of junk ever got form the dealership was maybe three block when it scattered the tranny all over the pavement. The deal...

I got a dude quite angry with me when I compared Someone in the British Commonwealth of nations as a SUBJECT rather than a CITIZEN. The problem as I see it even here is people are growing more like sheep (subjects) to dot gov than as citizens with rights. I think this is more prevalent in the...

"You guys are masochists!" Like hell we are. When it comes to masochism start with a Ruger #1 in .416 Rigby with Ruger's skimpy red excused of a recoil pad. The .404 Jeffery is a little bit better but the #1 in .375 H&H is actually fun to shoot. Yes, I have all three and until recently I even...

Congratulations! Paul B.
