It looks as though you couldn't possibly get enough 7828 in a .30-06 case to get into trouble. Cartridge : .30-06 Spring. (SAAMI) Bullet : .308, 180, Nosler PART PP 25396 Useable Case Capaci: 61.419 grain H2O = 3.988 cm³ Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.340 inch = 84.84 mm Barrel...

Oh, wait...that's not a permanent divider there. All I'm sure of now is that it has lotsa bullet holes in it, whatever it is.

I don't believe I've ever shot at a range with cages for the shooters. I do notice all the bullet holes in the wooden partitions. :shock: That represents an awful lot of ADs, or some downright disrespectful shooters!

No...THAT is a lube dent.

Well, wait a minute. You say these were fired in your own rifle, right? So, is the photo before resizing, or after? If they look like that after firing in your rifle, then I would suggest you need to take a good look at your chamber. If they look normal after firing, but take on these dents...

One thing's for sure....they are curiously uniform in shape. And that one at the bottom sure looks like SOMETHING is either in the sizing die or the chamber, whatever the case may be.

Cartridge : .30-06 Spring. (SAAMI) Bullet : .308, 180, Nosler PART PP 25396 Useable Case Capaci: 61.912 grain H2O = 4.020 cm³ Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.340 inch = 84.84 mm Barrel Length : 23.9 inch = 607.1 mm Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders...

As I understand it, if you're doing this for OBT purposes just close the bolt on an empty chamber then stick your cleaning rod down the bore and put a mark on the rod right at the muzzle. Measure the rod from the end to the mark, and that's your barrel length.

Okay, that actually gave you a bit more headroom, I think. Here's what QL thinks: Cartridge : .375 Win. Bullet : .375, 200, Sierra SPFN 2900 Useable Case Capaci: 40.665 grain H2O = 2.640 cm³ Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 2.560 inch = 65.02 mm Barrel Length : 20.0 inch = 508.0...

You're most welcome. Would you feel more comfortable (I know I would) if we ran the load using your actual case capacity?

Cartridge : .375 Win. Bullet : .375, 200, Sierra SPFN 2900 Useable Case Capaci: 39.860 grain H2O = 2.588 cm³ Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 2.560 inch = 65.02 mm Barrel Length : 20.0 inch = 508.0 mm Powder : IMR 4198 Predicted data by increasing and decreasing the...

I agree with Scotty wholeheartedly. I've read through this thread and did not see any mention of an actual water capacity measurement. It can make all the difference in the world. Case in point: that slick new 70 Super Grade I snagged a couple of months ago? My load for the older .280 pushed a...

Right place at the right time, good for you. I've got one that was made in 1946 and belonged to my dad's brother-in-law who dropped dead at the ripe old age of 39. My dad kept it in a closet with his old Remington 17, and when we had to place him in assisted living they became mine. I think I'd...

I can attest to that, I've held one and did not need to fire it to come to the same conclusion. The freekin cylinder is as big as a frozen orange juice can!

I shoulda known, but I'm blind in one eye and can't see out the other and only partially literate in the first place. So, once again...BUSTED. :lol:

Thought I saw, but didn't...and NOW I see exactly what you're looking at. Strike TWO! I'll just take the walk to first and make no assumptions. Maybe someone can give a real answer.

I see what you're saying now. I don't have a Nosler manual, but in the online data it appears that they list the very same charges for .223 and 5.56. I would assume that the data is all 55000 psi since they would not list .223 loads above SAAMI pressures. I have seen other manuals,though, where...

Excellent idea. You might be able to put wing nuts on the threaded rods to lock them in place, if you're so inclined.

I think I have most of what I want, and way more than I need. I'm still dazzled by the M70 Super Grade in .280 I snagged a few weeks back and just haven't been wanting anything...but I am prone to sudden attack of gottahavititis. One rifle that might induce such an attack is an H&R 317 Ultra in...
