    240 Wby

    The magazine is plenty long on this gun. Wasn't sure of the Weatherby "free bore" have not loaded for one yet.

    240 Wby

    Thanks for the info Mike. I played around with it tonight and found that I can reach the lands with the partition. Would you recommend I that I seat the bullets close to start with? I will start with RL22 when I get my dies.

    240 Wby

    I just picked up a Vangaurd S2 in 240 WBY. I would like to shoot the 100gr Partition. I have RL22, Magpro and Retumbo on hand. If someone has suggestions or could run a Quickload that would be wonderful.

    Powder Measures

    Have had an RCBS for three years. All of a sudden one day it would not turn on. Called RCBS and they said send it in (this comes with a one year warranty). A couple days later they called and said I have an "old model" for $40 we will send you a new one. So for $40 I got a brand new...

    6.5/300 WSM

    I don't have my notes with me but I am at approx. 106 rounds. If my memory is correct my OAL is 2.300" with a comparator guage. Again, my throat is short I have room in the magazine but I can't use it. Would like to seat the bullets out farther to see if there would be less pressure/more...

    6.5/300 WSM

    I have really only worked with the 130gr Scirroco and Retumbo in my 6.5/300WSM(should be called 264WSM). 65.2gr is giving me and avg. of 3240fps, best group .43" worst group .79" of 3 groups. This is my load until I get more time to play with other bullets. Mine is a Rem 700, 26" Shilen with...

    6.5WSM

    I have not tried any other powders. I have had so little time to play with this gun, but hope to do more in the future. My barrel is 26" with an 8 twist. The throat is quite short on mine, I actually have more room in the magazine than I can use.

    6.5WSM

    Finally snuck out to do some more shooting with the 6.5 WSM. Long story but I ended up at 3240fps, with 130gr Scirocco and 65.2gr of Retumbo and a standard WLR(not Magnum Primer). This load produced a nice little group of .46". Plenty good enough for me and I like the velocity also. I...

    6.5WSM

    Sorry but no, I have not touched it since before XMAS. It's been crazy, I'm in Idaho for work for this week, looks like my first chance might be Super Bowl weekend. Do you have a specific question?

    help me pick a caliber......

    Would the 6mm Rem work in your action? It will reach a little farther than the 243.

    What say you?

    Why not a Nosler Legacy in 35 Whelen?

    New Nosler "Legacy"

    Where's the 300H&H? Seems that would be a hot item.

    6.5WSM

    Next step is to continue working to see where I hit pressure with the 130 Scirocco. Then I would like to play with the !40 AB to see what I can make happen. Depending on what bullet you would like to shoot, make sure you got a long magazine. I already had the gun(270WSM) so I knew I was stuck...

    6.5WSM

    I am using the Redding die set. Resizing has been easy, one time through the sizing die and it is ready. Have read where some were crushing cases when using 300WSM brass though.

    6.5WSM

    I am using 270WSM brass. It is the same as the 300WSM. The 7mmWSM has a little longer body.

    6.5WSM

    First range report. After some break in and scope sighting I got to shoting some groups. All loads used Retumbo. Started at 59.0 gr with 140 AB, 130 Scirocco, and 129 SST. Much to my surprise the 140 AB loads had lots of pressure signs, Stiff bolt, extractor marks and severely flattened...
