    Quick load request.

    GRT => Gordon's Reloading Tool is like Quickload, but is free and not as comprehensive. My 416 Taylor sports a 24" barrel, but 83.6 gr of RL-17 pushing a 350 Speer GS delivers 2622 fps and 5344 fpe in my rifle. It's a max load, and you really don't need to load it that hard to get performance in...

    Quick load request.

    Greetings from another 416 Taylor owner. GRT shows these max loads with a 25.5" barrel: 72.0 IMR 4064 2527 fps 73.0 IMR 4166 2528 fps 79.0 RS Big Game 2560 fps If you can find some RL-17 it really makes the Taylor hum.

    Two and a half pound folding 30-30?

    5.5 lbs according to a different spec sheet I found. If you were looking for a compact rifle for a float plane, it might have a purpose. Personally I'd opt for an additional 18 ounces and take my Rem 700 Ti in 7mm-08

    Anyone here own a M1910 Ross Rifle?

    I'm gathering the dies needed to swage 30 caliber bullets to .287" for use in my Ross M1910. I'm not getting into the bullet business, but rather just planning on helping out shooters who need fat 7mm bullets for their rifles. Additionally if you happen to be a member of the...

    NRA

    He took 17 million to walk out the door. It was the last insult before he goes. If he was run over in a NYC crosswalk, I'd shrug, and keep walking. If Hillary was behind the wheel, I'd have to reconsider her political future.

    338-06 thoughts??

    Interesting in that the real world difference of the head diameter between the .470" of the 9.3x62mm and the .473" of the 30-06 is on paper rather than reality. As an example: US manufactured commercial brass measures a bit larger, but I've not seen any larger than .470"

    338-06 thoughts??

    The question is: Is the 30-06 a descendant from the 9.3x62 gene pool?

    338-06 thoughts??

    I have a 35 Whelen, a 35 Whelen AI, a 375 Whelen AI, and a 9.3x63, and the last one i would let go of would be the 9.3x62.

    S/W model 63 sight in issues

    I would reserve judgement on the state of the pistols sights until you spend some time at the range with it. Years ago I took a co-worker to the range to shot my Gold Cup. He fired 5 rounds, then looks through the spotting scope to see his results.... a blank target. He tells me that the...

    .270 QL needed

    I'm running 57.0 gr. of RL-17 with the 130 gr. BT at a LOA of 3.378 in my 24" barrel M700 and getting 3234 fps and 1/2 MOA accuracy. I'm saving my last kernels of RL-26 for my 25-06.

    25% off at SPS

    Thanks I guess... Did I really need more bullets? No, but that didn't stop me from placing an order.

    Need QL for 224 Valkyrie w/ 88gr. Hornady ELDM

    Is Alliant 2000MR powder in the database? Time to see if I can get the rifle to perform as well as the RL-17 simulation. Much appreciated!!! John

    Need QL for 224 Valkyrie w/ 88gr. Hornady ELDM

    The rifle has a 20" 1/6.5" twist barrel and the COL would be 2.260" It shoots 80 gr. Berger VLDs really well, but it looks like the 88 gr. ELDM will do better at 1000 yards from a ballistics perspective. Thank you in advance. John

    129 &142 ABLR slow and fast

    I'm trying too use this same bullet in my CZ 527 Grendel, glad to see how it performs. I can get nearly 2500fps, but accuracy has eluded me. Did you have similar issues? I would appreciated any hints, tips, or load suggestions.

    Need the benefit of Some ones "quick load". 100Gr BT/ IMR 4064

    GRT shows 57k psi at the nominal cartridge values. Might be OK in a bolt gun, but wouldn't suggest it in a M99. John
