A little more documentation of the process. If you are going to create 360 BH brass from 30-30 brass, you will want to cut off the extra portion of the neck before you begin the resizing. I did the first 20 or so with my Dremel and a cutoff wheel, but that's not particularly efficient. For about...

The old standby, IMR4064, works very well with 70-75gr bullets.

On the left is a dummy round made from 360 BH brass. On the right is a dummy round made from resized 30-30 brass. They both chamber just fine in my rifle. Bullet is the 180gr Speer Hot-Cor, #2435.

Guy, drop a note in here when the video(s) is up. I'd like to see it. Thx!

As with mine, I'm pretty certain a firing will remove that. We'll find out... 🙂

So, here are the results of my experiment. First, here are two factory 360 BH cases which have been fired and resized. Now, here are two 30-30 cases which have been resized using the procedure above. A couple of notes: The first one I followed the complete procedure, 338 > 357 > 9.3. The...

I don't *think* this will be an issue here. We looked at the length and position of the expander buttons as we were talking it thru. Give me a few days and I'll let you know, lol.

So, I talked to the tech guy at Lee, and explained what I wanted to do. He helped me come up with a plan that he believes will work. I'm waiting on some things to arrive, and will then test it out. It goes like this: 1. Use Lee universal decapping die with a .338 expander to open the case mouth...

That Speer bullet is what I'm going to load in it when I get to that point. I've heard good things. I was thinking the same way about necking up, but a number of folks have said it's not that easy. I'm not the expert in that regard, for sure.

What about sizing the body down and then fire-forming it somehow, to at least get it close enough to size the neck correctly?

No. Different case head. The 360 is based on the 30-30 case head.

So, I got my Henry in 360 BH. Only factory ammo I could find for it right now was 200gr Remington CoreLokt round nose. I put a few down the pipe to get it dialed in, but I could only get 2-3" groups at 100 yards. I'm pretty sure I can improve on that by loading my own. And that brings me to a...

PM sent.

I understand. FOTIS has cost me money, too. 😁

Good shooting, Brad. You stay away from my deer, you hear? 😁

I was looking at this the other day. I have one of their 1-6x24 AR Optics scopes, and I'm pleased with it. This has the same guts, just cosmetic differences and reticle, geared more towards traditional hunting usage. I can't speak to the longevity, but it does have a lifetime warranty and I have...

I have a good load with Big Game in my 30-06 with 150gr Hornady SST. It shoots well under an inch.

Friend of mine uses it for his 7-08.

I bought 2# of Hunter a while back, but haven't gotten around to trying it, I don't think.

It's no longer available, but I've used IMR 4166 as a very good substitute for 4064. I hope they start making that one again.
