I have some of the 180gr E-tips.The shoot great in my rifle,just haven't used any of the mono's on game.I've been wondering about mono's and how many I see recovered and the nice mushrooms they make.Since they shed very little weight compared to lead core bullets,it has me thinking that lead...

Frankford Arsenal Trim and Prep Center is what I use these days.After I resize my brass,I can trim,deburr,chamfer and clean primer pockets at a rate of 4-5 cases a minute.I really changed my world doing case prep.It really saves a lot of time.I've had mine for about seven years now and I'd hate...

SJB358 I have to agree with you on the reaction when hit.When you use enough gun,there is no doubt about whether or not the animal was hit.I've done some guiding and a lot of the time people use small caliber cartridges.I have to watch really close when they shoot and sometimes it's really hard...

Loading the various 338 cartridges video by the Real Gunsmith Randy Selby.He has some interesting videos based of his over fifty years of rifle building.

A good trigger makes a huge difference for sure.Those Triggertech triggers are nice.I think I have seven of them now.Every year right before the 4th of July they make a special run called Independence Day triggers and you can get them for about a hundred dollars.They are the same as their...

I had case case head separation on a 338 Win Mag once.It was on the forth firing of the cases.First round right off the bat working with some test loads on a new to me used rifle.I could not get the case out at the range to continue with my test loads.After I got home I tried a tight patch,tight...

You best get rid of them.If your getting case head separation on some and they all had the same amount of firings,you can bet more will show up next time.If you fired them 15 times,I'd say you got your moneys worth out them.

I can't help you with the 175gr.I'm thinking they are longer than the 180gr Accubond,probably close to a 200gr Accubond.I know the relief grooves on the mono's change the total bearing surface so it's kind hard to say.I know recently I shot some Hornady SST's and CX bullets and there really...

This is what my rifle liked with the 210gr Partition with Varget.I used a Win. case,WLRM primer with this load.

I was reviewing the QL data on the 175gr and 210gr.I noticed the QL for the 175gr showed Useable Case Capaci: 60.460 grain H2O = 3.926 cm³ and the 210gr showed Useable Case Capaci: 55.044 grain H2O = 3.574 cm³. I saw in my Lee data for 200gr-215gr,H4350 was 62.0grs as a compressed load.It also...

I like the QL data too.I find it especially helpful when the data is inputted for your specs.It is also great when your working with cartridges that have very little data to go by.Here are a couple more pages from my Lee manual.They don't have data for the 210 TTSX,but is has a good amount of...

Another company taken over by 70%.The monopoly continues https://fiocchi.com/en/blog/post/czechoslovak-group-announces-acquisition-70-stake-fiocchi-munizioni/

If I'm understanding the QL right,you can set it up for say 63k,but some of the powders fall short of 63k if the reach case capacity before that pressure is achieved.Based on that,Reloader17 was not up to that pressure at 110% case fill Alliant Reloder-17 *T 110.0 64.3 4.17...

Look how close you are with this Lee chart.Lee manual shows the useful case capacity of 4.39cc for the 338-06.Then look at their dipper chart.The largest one they have is 4.3cc.For Reloader 17 it shows 61.7grs.The smallest dipper the have is .17cc.It shows 2.4grs.To keep it simple,lets just...

When I started working loads in my 338-06,I found that stepping up that bore size of my 30-06 case from 30cal to 338cal,I had to look more towards what powders I would load in my 308 Win instead of what powders I was loading in the parent case 30-06.Both those cartridges,the 308 Win and 30-06 as...

Well guys,our tax dollars made this possible.Here is a little info y'all might find interesting.Sounds more like trying to create a monopoly. https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/21/politics/war-funding-ukraine-what-matters/index.html...

I just compared the case capacity of five different 308 Win cases I had using 58.5grs of TAC to fill cases..Winchester most definitely had the largest.Next closest was Remington,but still a bit less.Federal,LC and Nosler were slightly overfill. From the top down in this order. Nosler Case ,LC...
