    hornady sst bullets.

    Guys in our crew used them years ago and they were terribly explosive. But, recent reports seem to have them being tougher. Not sure if/how hornady made them tougher but it seems like they have.

    Is my 30-06 finicky? Or is it the powder?

    Wow...that's a huge swing. Not surprising w/many powders to see 1fps per degree change. That big of a velocity drop is so big the ONLY possible way it could be accurate is if you caught a 2nd accuracy node!

    Sonic Brass Cleaner.

    I have cheap harbor frt unit that looks suspiciously like the Lyman unit. I can say it didn't do good till I started using the hornady sonic cleaner solution. Then it came to life. But I have to say it left me thinking perhaps an old pot w/wooden spoon might also work pretty good with the...

    RE25 .340

    Re ql and factory ammo speeds. If factory ammo does 2930 fps and ql says it can be done at 64k pressure I'd be looking to work towards that w/a 26" barrel and factory freebore. Wby brass is soft and tiny extractor circles wouldn't necessarily scare me off. Swipe marks or loose primer pockets...

    RE25 .340

    My 340 does those horizontal strings w/some lighter bullets. Mine absolutely loves 250 partitions and 250 hornady spire points. I do most my testing at 200 yds. Its crazy to see a horizontal string that's 4" across but 1/2" high! A recent test run of some 225 accubonds showed promise too..but...

    Boat tail VS flat base....is one generally more accurate

    I'm gonna give another vote to flat base bullets as being "generally" a bit more accurate for me. If I have a fussy gun it usually seems it settles on a flat based bullet as its fav load too. Can't say why..perhaps more wt concentrated in the barrels rifling? I remember alot of gun articles in...

    Forming 7mm-08; better to neck up or down?

    I've been using 308 brass and downsizing. Win brass is ideal cause it normally has thin .013" necks. If its brass with thicker necks I turn it before downsizing. I pulled the expander stem from my rcbs FL die and use it sort of like a body die. After reforming I lube case mouths w/imperial...

    Low speed bullet tests with the ABLR?

    A little off topic but I used TB to test noslers 3030 ballistic tip at 1400 fps. I did it cause it was extremely accurate in my marlin...tossed 5 shots under an inch. I was able to site in so that the 3rd hash mark of my 2-7 Burris had me ringing a gong at 300. My results proved to me the...

    Need answer fast...is nosler 708 brass made by norma?

    There might be another player making nosler brass up here in my home state of Wis by the name of Jagemann technology. Always interesting when things get shaken a bit from normal suppliers.

    Need answer fast...is nosler 708 brass made by norma?

    Poop...missed out on the 150 ablr that would have partnered the order. From what I found its good brass but most likely not norma.

    Which gun rest for testing loads

    I use a leadsled w/no problems but I do not weigh it down or strap a gun in it. I've never had a scope move in the mounts or had a scope failure let alone a stock problem. That said I've never seen nothing but praise for the bull bags.

    Is there such a cartridge as a 270 wsm improved?

    Noticed nosler is listing brass but can't find any info on Google searches. Can't imagine blowing the shoulder out more than standard 270 wsm. Maybe just a misprint? http://www.shootersproshop.com/nosler-p ... -blem.html

    7mm08 with ablr-suggestions?

    JohnB...that's as great link. Alot of the charges you worked up to mirror the latest hornady manual. They list a Max of 47.5 under their 154s....and 46.0 under the 162 class bullets. They show NO powder outperforming re17 with the heavier 708 bullets speed wise.

    7mm08 with ablr-suggestions?

    I just picked up a new Thompson weathersheild venture for $357 off gunbroker in 7-08. These have a 1:9 twist and I've got some 168 lab here. My go to powders to try will be mr2000 and re17. Hoping to see at least 2625 fps. If everything works out I think that start speed could keep the bullet...
