True. Alliant powders shoot the best for me as well. I'm trying Grand and N560 in the .270 and .300WM.

That answers my question. Thanks What micrometer seating die do you use? Hornady comparator ?

The 130 tip at that velocity is fantastic on deer. My go to bullet.

Great I have those speer bullets and some Grand. Keep us posted.

I have an RCBS seating die. I checked and cleaned out die,etc. The bullet tip does not bottom out for certain. Any other thoughts?

Understood. The question is how do I adjust the seating die to seat bullets on the ogive. The seater does so where it contacts the bullet closer to the tip.

What velocity are you getting with that load?

Yes, I loaded Barnes X bullets back in the 90's, Pressure jumped quickly. Was that hunter in camp with you on a multi species hunt ?

How was the accuracy with the 62.2 and 62.4 grains using the standard primer?

When I seat ballistic tips the OAL varies driving me nuts. If I use a bullet comparator it will give me the oal based on where the meplat or shoulder of the bullet is, correct? Given that, how do I parlay that to seating bullets so that the distance to the lands is always the same?

Darn tootin' Crank out those loads with the chargemaster and go hunt!

A 175 NP at 2,900 seems hard to beat for elk in the 7 MAG. How fast can you push that 160 mono ?

Ignorance is never blissful buddy. The unit is easy to use, accurate and efficient. The time I save puts me in the field more where the game is.

RCBS Charge Master 1500 and don't look back.

I was on their site. Prompted me to buy some. Do you have experience with N565 and 570 in any cartridges?

Thanks Mike

Hey dudes , how about some help here.

Thats how we hoped they would perform when they were introduced. Nice recovery. Back then you had to shoot them into concrete to get expansion. lol

We found when they first came out on the market that they failed to expand well on deer at revolver velocities. Glad to see Hornady softened them up a bit so to speak.
