I went with a little less crimp and saw the velocity spread cut in half. Making progress! Also tried some full power loads using a 250gr XTP over 25gr of Lil gun. That's a stiff load but should be devastating on hogs! The higher velocity chrono data is the XTP. I did finally find some tight...

Pics of the residue on the case.

Tried 7.3gr of Winchester 231 today. Chrono results attached. Slightly better but still not great and accuracy was about 2.5" at 25 yards. I'm also getting black residue on one side of the case....not sure what that's about. Going to try some full power loads with a jacketed bullet and see what...

Ok, I'm new to pistol reloading but have extensive experience in rifle precision reloading. I recently bought a Citadel Levtac 92 chambered in 45 colt. I've always liked lever guns but have never owned one until now. I have a Texas Hog hunt coming up this summer and that was the push I needed...

Nice! What range was the shot? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

According to nosler the G1 is 0.785. I actually expected it to be a bit higher. We'll see how the numbers pan out once I get a chance to play with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Please share the results if you do! I'm all tagged out for the year. But I'm sure I'll have a chance to run one through a cow elk next year at a minimum. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got lucky and snagged a few bags of seconds off of shooters pro shop. Now that they're actually producing these, hopefully my backorder of firsts will ship soon. I'm excited to get these loaded up in my 338 Lapua! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

FYI....the new 300gr ABLR is set to go into production next week. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got a few more loaded up with 43.5gr and pushed then back to 2.90" COAL. Hopefully we won't get as much snow as they are predicting and I can get out to test them. I was bored and weighed each of the 10 loaded cartridges and found that there was an extreme spread of 1.5 grains between them...

I'm headed to Kansas at the end of December for whitetail and working up a load for the trip. Tested two different overall lengths and 3 charge weights. It's getting close.... 43gr H4350 @ 2.855" COAL 43gr H4350 @ 2.915" COAL 43.2gr H4350 @ 2.915" COAL 43.5gr H4350 @ 2.915" COAL Might...

Anyone got any insider info on BC for this new bullet? Or when it'll be available? I need to do some loading for my 338 Lapua and really want to give this bullet a go! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

With that high of a BC and that muzzle velocity at what range are you hitting 1300 fps? I'm guessing it's past 1800 yards. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mt Emily area? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Shots should be out to about 500 yards max. I'm very comfortable with that. It's a custom built 260 that I shoot regularly out to 1000 and beyond. Will be hunting a bit south of great bend Kansas. Can't tell you how excited I am about this trip! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
