eurooptics are good to deal with . I've bought a fair amount from them . their prices , and service are good . they are kind of convenient for me . where they are located now is about 20 minutes away from my sons house . the previous location was about 10 minutes away from him .
I bought an A&D fx120i scale a while ago . it is a really nice scale , not cheap , but nice .it weighs to the kernel of powder . there are a few things that can be purchased along with this scale , that make it an automatic powder measure .I don't have any of the addon's , just the scale ...
I'm another blem shooter . from what I've seen a lot of the blems are overruns . Nosler could have had an order for an accubond with a different color plastic tip , red comes to mind . if Nosler makes too many of these red tip bullets they get sold as blems . another thing I see is , if the...
velocity from virgin brass is usually slower than after the brass has been fired and sized to your chamber . it's hard to say how much difference there is . all you can do is use the same load in your fired brass and check the velocity .
if you're pushing the pressure , you will shorten the...
sorry , I can't answer this question for you . my quickload program does not have Ramshot Grand listed . maybe an email , or phone call , to Ramshot would get you an answer .
that dang RL26 was like magic for giving velocity . if it ever becomes available you could buy a pound and give...
I did a lot of work with a 260 . I have posted up a bunch of load data , but it's scattered through these threads . maybe something I have listed will help you in the future . I think I pretty much used , RL26 , and RL17 powders . I used H4895 for the reduced loads ...
Alliant RL26 , 50.4 grains , 3005 FPS . the case fill , at max load , is a little high at 107.9% . if you used a drop tube powder funnel , I doubt you would have any issues .
the big problem with this powder is finding it .
I have a friend that is wanting some work done on his #1 . I can remember you guys talking about a gunsmith that specializes in the #1's . would you guys give me that info , so I can pass it along to him . Thank you
thanks Fellas , I learned something already today .
I've looked at these bullet profiles , and thought they were very similar . I never thought they would sell them under two different names .
powder list . these would be max powder charges

I don't have the " game changer " bullet listed . I do have a " tipped game king " that should get info close enough to keep you out of trouble .
6.5 staball gives a good case fill . it's down on velocity by about 200 FPS , compared to the top powders . I'd say it's worth a try , since...
yesterday I stopped at a rest area , and struck up a conversation with a truck driver . I asked what he was hauling . he said he had $800 worth of walnut trees headed for New York . he couldn't get over the fact a few young kids ordered these trees . have a good day Dan . :giggle:
a little off topic . might save you guys a few bucks , on a future purchase .
there is a guy in our lease that is sold on vortex . anytime someone mentions optics Bill says , don't forget to check with A&A optics .

I'm guessing you should be able to find both of these bullets in the bullet test section . the guys usually have pictures ,retained weight , amount of penetration , and expanded diameter . from my experience the partition behaves like a partition, regardless of the weight . if you are...
yes , you're reading that right . this was a last day kill . we didn't have time to get it to the processor . the guides quartered it up . after they had it quartered and in the cooler , one of them brought that bullet in . he said it was in the near front leg , and never made it to the...
this 160 grain accubond bullet was shot from my 7mm rem mag . muzzle velocity approximately 3050 FPS . the bullet broke the front leg bone , through the chest and was recovered in the off side front leg, against the skin . almost made it the whole way through . bullet weighs 89.3 grain ...
this bullet was recovered in the on side , front leg , of a moose . this shot was about 200 yards . I didn't get to see where in the leg it was removed . I can only assume it was against the leg bone . the leg was not broken .
