    Looking for reloading data for 22-250 and Reloder 16

    That combo is in no man's land. In my humble .02 cents of good ol' cash The bearing surface of the 60gr partition in the 22-250 really needs a faster burning powder than R16... Might I ask.. Why are you set on R16 for that? There are many other powders much, much, much,MUCH better suited for...

    30-378...need input immediately please and thx

    I am trying to learn as much as I can about this cartridge especially with the frigid temps at present. Shooting is miserable right now so it's a lot of skull sessions and loading things for inventory. That said I am not using a bushing die, nor necking up or down my brass. I've only loaded a...

    So... To the wby shooters on this thread.... Are you trying to hit the free bore window area and play around with that a few thosabdths out or in... I'm only asking this because Roy had a reason for his free bore to hit the speeds he was seeking thus... Has anyone found the impact of less to...

    Nice score tonight!!

    all the primer pricing complaints makes me shake my head though... perhaps I'm from a different mold...I don't hand load for cost savings. I simply do it making my own ammo. I can do it better for my application than any factory can. BUT... I will play along with the cost theme a sec... to...

    Nice score tonight!!

    Won't happen. Not as a rule. Sure you will come across a sale here or there or promotion from a mail order house now and then but you won't see a drop in pricing as a rule. The overhead of raw materials, wages, transportation, etc simply make that impossible. Supply and demand will...

    220 Swift case issue

    If what you're suggesting is going on I would think the OP would definitely notice a different feel upon chambering loaded rounds You didn't deburr thr O.D.? A lot of those tools do both

    30-378...need input immediately please and thx

    I have a plethora I am wanting to try... That said the charts above are most helpful! So far I have loaded 225 gr eldm bullets at the published coal and I have shot factory rounds just to obtain brass... That said... as a side note the WBY 165 grain Ballistic tip ammo was making one ragged...

    30-378...need input immediately please and thx

    i really appreciate that....and what I was looking for... That is utterly incredible..the .460 and the 378 @ over 3/4 of an inch of free bore. I know those are the two biggest baddest regularly made sporter type rifles in lieu of any daisy chain cartridge ladder. 3/4 of an inch. W O W

    300 WSM with 180 Partition and Reloder 16

    I liked your post even if waking up a 5 year old thread. 🤣🤣🤣 The USA made pre64 model 70 is the best bolt action rifle ever. I might have the last one over made in the FN plant. Sadly they're all made in Portugal at present. Might be a fine weapon but COO is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to me this...

    Sticking cases in die

    I load a lot of 5.56/223 A lot! And I use the Hornady spray.... Couple things of note... 223/5.56 It's everywhere. You can thank the AR craze but the fact remains that caliber of ammo is everywhere and lots of it. Quality control can take a hit when that happens. Not saying that's your...
