7828 ssc was giving me hell! Switched to the tried and true h4831sc. 59 gr giving me a group of about .75" @100 yrds. 2 in one hole and then a flier. Overall group is .75" I have been slowly working the seating depth to find the node to get the flier in but ever group is the same size and I can...
Thanks guys. Thats the goal fotis. Hopefully a little seating depth changes and I can tighten those up. I was in the zone today shot my best group with my 180 ab load. But its gonna be a few days before I can get back out. We got a snow stoem rolllin in tonight. Tomorrows high of 27 doesn't...
So It was one of those days! Where everthing falls almost perfectly in to place. Starting load work. 300 rum 200 AB RL 25 fed 215 primers and r-p brass.
The ballistic tip should do just fine. It could be that the rifle just does not like the bullet or powder combo. I had the same problem with my 270 and 140 ab. Changed powder and the sucker shoots lights out. Day in and day out. I have no experiance with the deep curl so I couldnt tell you if...
I don't have a doubt in the world you can make that cannon shoot lights out. I was just trying to get my 300 to shoot like the one you had. Half inch at 300. I don't think I am physically capable of that shooting.
The 190's might be cool but from what I saw with 150 .277 ablr and how pressure signs were almost non existant with as much powder as you could pack in a case the 210 ablr might act the same. I was 6.5 gr over max charge of the load data for a 140 gr ab. With magnum. If you could find a powder...
I currently have a crossfire 2 on my 300 rum. My father has the viper. And I just ordered one for my rum from natchez. They have a scope sale. The crossfire I have has been through a rough time. Broke a rear leupold ring and it slammed around. Took 2 shots to realize the ring broke. And when...
I went through 4 of the 6500's on my fathers 300 rum with a break before I went to vortex. Bushnell told me that my rings were faulty the first 2 times. So I went all out on badger rings. Still broke 2 more. Now vortex is all I run. Never broke another scope even on the lower crossfire line
I have always wanted to load retumbo in my rum but ended up using rl25 and don't think I will be changing. Although I did secure some 200 AB's so if I could find retumbo that might be the powder I choose. Especially being that its an extreme powder
Clover. I don't own a wm nor have i loaded for it so I'm not sure what actual speeds should be with a180 out of the 300 wm. But it is an excellent cartridge and a well known one at that. The rum is not near as well known. But my load with 180 ab is averaging around 3480 fps. I think the wm...
The rifle will benused for varmint and target. Cant use anything smaller than a 243 for big game in colorado. Thats why 55-60 gr bullets will be choice
Ok. So as the title implies I am beginning my build of a22-250. Action is going to be a rem 700sa. Brux match barrel 24-26" but what twist should I run. I will be loading 55-60 gr bullets and pushing for around 3700 fps. Should I run the normal 12 twist or tighten up to 10 or 11
Exactly! And if that were true the partition would never have become bullet that its is. And the accubond would not be as good of a bullet as it is. Same goes for the monolithic bullets e-tip and Barnes bullets. All these bullets almost always pass through even when contacting heavy bone. And...
Thanks. I feel better about saying what I said. I makes sense in my eyes. But to each his own. And in the other hand I don't believe they knew much about what they were saying. Seeing as they were saying that the 300wm had more killing energy than a 30-06. With the load they were using they...
For a bit I kinda felt like an ass but I thought about it and realized in the end its not my rifle and if that's how he chooses to load for it then that is his Loss. He is well under utilizing the capabilities of the cartridge. It just seemed to me that maybe there was something I was missing...
