thanks for the replies. I need to get my hands on that quick load software. that would be fun to play with. I guess 2700 seems slow because the hornady loads were the first thing I tested. they set the bar pretty high for velocity. I'll put RL15 on my list of wanted powders. I've never shot...

mississippi muzzleloader at this point, I've spent almost as much on load development as I spent on the rifle. I've tried varget, 8208xbr, and W748. I've shot cor lokt, accubond, and hornady SP all in 200 grain. best load with varget was 2711 with an SD of 5 that shot a 1.2" group. best with...

just on a sidenote: rainier lead bullets are plated. they are not jacketed. there are better bullets for less $$. I load my 9mm for light recoil mainly for my glock 34. I use titegroup and 115fmj. the only time my gun doesn't eject is when someone with very limited experience is shooting it...

JD338, I know that is good advice. I bought this to be a hunting rifle. in central MS its rare (on our land) to get a shot over 200. after I bought my 35 whelen, this gun doesn't see much action. the 35 has a much better scope anyway... I'm just chasing velocity with the 130gr becase I'm...

manual is hornady handbook 8th edition. I'm getting 3167 average from hornady superformance factory ammo. it shoots 2-3 inch groups at best. there has to be a way to match(or at least come close) their velocity with handloads.

brass trimmed to 2.484 COL of 3.296

thats a beautiful rifle. ...and some great shooting. my 7-08 loves H380 and 120gr BT. I would buy a box of 130s to play with for sure.

forgive me if I ask something stupid. I've learned everything I know about reloading from books and the internet. I hope to take advantage of some of the knowledge on this board. rifle is a Marlin XL7S .270 22" w/Nikon Monarch UCC 3.5-10x50 I have been working on 130gr BT and 140gr BT loads in...

decapped my brass this morning. the 59g of 8208 showed pretty clear pressure signs on the primers. I've used heavier loads with this powder and other bullets with no pressure signs. the accubond was 60fps faster than my other 8208 loads(bullets) with the same charge. the varget charged loads...

I tested a few rounds today with my whelen. keep in mind that my rifle is a $250 H&R 22". I only loaded a few rounds to play with as there is no real data yet from nosler. first group was 60gr of varget @ 2737, 2737, 2743 that shot into about a 4" group. I didn't bother shooting any more...

bullet, where do you plan to start? I have a few loaded already with 8208 xbr and varget. its what I had on the shelf already. I'm thinking about making a run to the powder store for some 748. I would like to try superformance, but looking at 760 and h414 on the quick loads data it doesn't look...

my 200s just arrived. for some reason I was under the impression that there would be load data on or in the box. I guess I have to start from 0. they have also changed their packaging.

mine will be in monday. anyone have any plans to try these with superformance?

thanks for the welcome! I'm one of the mississippi guys that gets to shoot these in a single shot H&R rifle and call it a primitive weapon. I've been using 200gr cor lokt. I'm getting 2711 with 59.5gr of varget, 1.2" groups and 2767 with 59.5gr of 8208 .8" groups. I would love to get the speeds...

does anyone actually have these in their hands yet? mine still haven't shipped. kinda disappointing to see how far down that long whelen list sit varget and 8208 xbr.
