You'll love it. Excellent piece of kit.

Here you go.

Here you go. I use it all the time.

Some of those look like separation, and others just look like the bottom edge of the resizing area.

Like you, I have more than enough rifles to use for deer hunting each year. But I do enjoy getting a new rifle/caliber, working up a load for it, and then using it in the field. I usually designate a primary for the season, and then one or two backups. Three years ago, it was the backup that put...

Yes, I have. I mean, we're not talking orders of magnitude here, more of a fine-tuning thing. I've had it happen a couple times, when I thought a load was not quite giving me what I wanted. Switch primers, back off a few tenths on powder, and then work up again. One in particular comes to...

Not far behind you with my $300 Marlin. I shot this the other day while checking a load. I had previously developed the load with IMR 4064, 70gr Nosler Varmageddon, WLR primers, and Federal brass. But I wasn't satisfied with the short life of the brass, so I moved it to Starline instead. Backed...

Sure, because they are built to pretty much the same spec. But I don't think that applies here, as the suggested load was not being used in another Henry Long Ranger, as I understand it. In fact, I believe it was a bolt gun (vs a lever action). Quite a bit of difference.

FWIW, you can use load data from other reputable sources (Hodgdon, other bullet manufacturers, etc) where other standard 100gr bullets are being loaded (such as the Sierra Game King). It doesn't have to be data specifically for the Nosler Partition. Just start near the bottom and work your way...

This data is a few years old, but it's listed there. It's for all Nosler 95-100gr bullets.

I think it's important to note that a load that is accurate in one rifle may not be accurate at all in another. So taking someone else's load and using it as your starting point isn't a very good way of finding what your rifle likes. You might, might get lucky. But you are more likely to not get...

You won't be sorry.

You wouldn't want that. Hornady lists 1600 fps as the recommended max velocity for the XTP. Above that velocity, you want to use the sturdier XTP Mag bullet, which is 240gr. There are also 300gr versions of both. I have used both the 250gr XTP and the 240gr XTP Mag bullets in my 45 Colt Henry...

Interestingly, after posting those pics above, if I go back and refresh the page, I can't see the first pic anymore (the one with the Henry rifle). I can only see the second pic. If I edit that post, both of the pics show up again, until I refresh. Very strange.

Can you see both of these pictures? The first picture is just a link to a photo-sharing site, and the second one is directly attached to the post.

For whatever reason, I see nothing when I view this post on my phone. Even if I view it in "desktop mode." But if I go on the computer, I see the cartoon pic.

What kind of scope are you using? Does it have enough magnification to be precise with your aiming?

So, you've raised a valid point: "I am not a great rifle shooter." I don't know how you quantify that, but any time you are evaluating accuracy, you need to take yourself out of the equation as much as possible. Otherwise, you don't know if the issue is the gun, the ammo, or the shooter. The...

I've got a couple boxes of those that were given to me, but I haven't shot them yet.

IMR 4064 with the 95 BT's. I think IMR 4166 with the 85 GKHP. It's similar to 4064 or Varget.
