I read that book when I was in JR, High. Very enjoyable.

I had one and it grouped well.

Nice and congratulations. Odd about the case separation. Maybe it wasn't your fault just unnoticed bulge. Good you were able to get it out of the chamber.

H4895 for the Sierra 225gr. RL15, Varget,Big Game and Tac for the Hornady 200gr SPT. So far.

Can't hear you, breaking up:unsure:

So, Howie, when's the BIG day? Inquiring minds want to know.

I was 11 years old and remembering watching the landing on tv. Had two older cousins that had been drafted into the Army and had and was in Vietnam, so we watched tv catching up on current events.

Fine shooting for both and load developing for your 7mm08.

The late Mike Venturino wrote about making shot loads for snakes in his six guns. Best I remember he loaded them in the same cases as the calibers he was loading for. There was a picture of a shredded potato he used as a target, and it was pretty impressive.

2740fps isn't anything to lose sleep over. That is plenty of speed for what you're wanting to accomplish. I've poked a few deer with somewhat lower velocity and as you said the deer won't know the difference, the oil light will still come on. If you can get or have some, try Winchester Stabal6.5...

Agreed. Have used them as small as the 60gr in 223 Rem for crop damage up to the 165gr in 30-06.

Have shot this rifle yet?

I haven't done anything to my Tikka but work up loads for it. Maybe it just worked out that way:unsure:

That's unique. Do you know how well it worked?

My experience with 6.5x55 brass is that American made is usually under size than European such as Lapua or Norma. Than again chambers can be different as well. Case in point. My first 6.5x55 is a Mod 70 FWT. I bought Winchester brass when buying dies and bullets at the same store.All that was...

Congratulations Howie. Wishing you both the very best.

Great new Dan. Sounds like you were well taken care. Prayers for continued cancer free years.

Kimber looks good. Shoot them loads and have fun.

Old powder no new excuses, like me :ROFLMAO:

Sometimes we just step into deal without looking. Yours was meant to be.
