Just a quick trip to the range this morning. 38.0 gr N140 2.790 coal fps 2710 avg 3 shots.
37.5 N140 fps 2666. same as above. Think I am going to play with the seating depth a little and bump the power up a little a like 38.2 and 38.4 It was hot like 2 shots then the barrel cooler. BTW the...
I use the RDF in almost all my target rifles. They like to jump. This rifle is my 2nd 6.5 creed. I have a Savage 110 desert tactical it is a bit too heavy for my kind of hunting in my area.
I am currently working up load development also for the 129 ABLR for whitetails here in NW Louisiana. Yesterday at the range I was testing My 6.5 Axis with a 22" barrel. Seems like the 129 ABLR is very similar to the 130 RDF. Here is my results using the RDF and N140 in Peterson brass 100 yards...
Just a little add to. I have one of there barrel coolers and it quit on me a couple of weeks ago on a hot Sunday morning at my range here in Louisiana. I contacted their customer service by email and got a new one in the mail in less than five days even with all the delayed shipping due to...
I also take a coyote every time I can. This got in the way of my 270 Axis at about 50 feet the other morning. 130 BT He sat down to look at me sitting in my deer stand.
I bought my Rem 700 VSSF in 1995 and have not shot it that much. It came with a HS Precision stock. Recently I got it out of the closet added a Timney trigger and a Witt Machine Clamp on muzzle brake. The rifle having a 1-12 twist I just did not know if I could get the 168 & 175 to shoot well...
I never use coal measurements in my target rifles just base to ogive. That info could be a little misleading to a newbe causing over pressure with a max load of powder.
In the Nosler Load Data it shows a tested coal of 2.80 for a 175 RDF . With the RDF being much longer I would think loading it to 2.80 would be a compressed load in some cases. What do you think?
Would you share your load data on the 150 ABLR? I also have Nosler M48 270 win wanting to try the 150's. Loaded up a few this morning using H4831sc. Going to range in the morning to give them a try.
Just wondering if anyone has tried IMR 8208 in their 270 Win. I have a Nosler Win 270 M 48 and thinking about trying some with Nosler 130 BT and Accubonds. I have had good results with 8208 in my AR's and 308's. Found some quickload data here in the forum.
