Didn’t chrono them, but plan on heading out again soon and will check velocity. This is the first time I’ve ever tried the E-Tip and won’t be the last!

Thanks guys. I got drawn for anterless moose and elk this season so quite happy using the E-Tip. Tried the 200gr AB and it’s not too shabby either.

I do love the big 8. Keep us posted on how the e-tips perform.

Got out to the range to test some loads in my Winchester XPR and impressed with initial performance. 180gr E-Tip 71grs RL22 Hornady brass CCI 250 3.300” 100yds

Thanks for the info [emoji106]

I have never used them before and looking for some advice on choosing a good location to setup. I have a Spypoint Force 11-D and a Simmons. Thanks!

What powder are you using? I have some 200gr ELD-X to try in my 300WM.

No, haven’t run it over a chrono yet. I will next range trip and see what the ES is. I’ll also check mag length too.

Trying out some 165gr BT in my Vanguard S2 and wondering if I should play with OAL? Using Varget, Lapua brass and Fed 210M. OAL is 2.800”

Very impressive! Thanks for sharing.

Bought some Lapua brass. Problem solved [emoji6]

That explains the difficulty seating primers. I bought the brass already once fired, so not sure of the exact factory load. Off to buy a crimp remover [emoji9]

Here is the brass. Almost looks like they have a crimp?

I tried Win, CCI and Fed primers and same result. They are commercial cases. I will post pics when I have a chance. Never experienced this before. I have dealt with Federal cases with loose pockets.

I picked up some Hornady match brass for my .308 Win and found the pockets to be extremely tight. To the point it crushed some primers trying to seat. Thinking of picking up a primer pocket reamer but was wondering which one. Any suggestions?

JD338, thanks alot and you are so right. Those big bore levers can pack quite the punch and can be very underestimated. It's too bad Nosler doesn't make a BT for the 444. Would be a dandy.

:lol: I learnt my lesson and will politely decline :)

Thanks guys. It currently has Skinner rear sight on it, but my eyes aren’t what they used to be and am thinking of putting a Redfield 2-7x on it. I have 300 Hornady 265gr bullets all ready and might also try some 300gr XTP.

Some years ago I owned a 444P, and in a moment of stupidity sold it [emoji31] Well, I finally tracked another one down [emoji4]

Impressive indeed. What powder are you using in the 240? I’m assuming it is a Mk V?
