    Sportsman warehouse reloader 15/22

    I got a email notification from Midsouth Shooters supply informing me that they had Alliant powder in stock. RL16 was 60 per lb or 465 per 8lbs. I'll not be using any Alliant at these prices, especially when I have other load recipes that use cheaper powders.

    Whatcha Think!

    Update, I loaded a few rounds of the IMR-4895 for my 7-08 yesterday and headed to the range. I was pleasantly surprised at the results. As you can see it shot well. No chronograph numbers, but nothing wonky happened with the powder. One good thing, this load shot same POA as my Varget load...

    Whatcha Think!

    I found a tab on one can that someone had put 1996 on, powder is 27 yrs old, or at least that can is.

    Whatcha Think!

    Ive moved as much of the powder as possible to other plastic powder containers as I can. I'm going to load a few with this powder Tuesday and see how shoots. I don't forsee any issues.

    Whatcha Think!

    I was gifted several pounds of IMR 4831 and 4895 yesterday. This powder has been sitting in a metal box for a good many years. Not really sure how long or the conditions. When I opened the box all the powder cans had red rusty tops. I opened a can of each and the powder smelled and looked...

    Black Horn 209 instock

    I saw some at Cabelas the other day, 79.99 per 8 ozs. I found 4-5 bottles several years ago at the end of season sale. Paid 14 dollars per bottle. Still have a bottle and half. However, after this runs out and if the price doesn't come down dramatically, which I highly doubt, I will be going to...

    Who says partitions aren’t accurate?

    Ive always found Partitions to be really accurate myself.

    Range Report

    Sharpen your knife 'cause any of those will work. If a bang flop is required then I suggest a neck shot. Im talking about where the neck joins the body. I use to employ that shot and nary a one ever moved a stepped but of course a high shoulder shot, as already mentioned will do the same thing...

    How fast is too fast for a Nosler ballistic tip bullet?

    The litmus test of that bullet will be velocity at impact and what it happens to encounter on impact. The closer that happens to be the more stress will be put on that bullet but my experience with the .284 cal 150 gr BT has been dead animals both near and far with mostly pass throughs.

    Hornady 150 SST

    117 gr SST bullet at 3300 fps with impact at 50 yds, is that actually a bullet problem or a bullet being used outside it's design parameters

    Hornady 150 SST

    When the SST first came they were just like the first Ballistic Tips. Very frangible. Hornady, like Nosler "toughened" up those bullets. I have found right the opposite with your "grenade" comment. I have also found that the SST acts pretty much the same way as the lead tipped versions of the...

    Reloader 16 and 23 at Natchezss

    They are out of RL-26 but have RL-16. 61.00 per lb or 452 per 8 lbs. I like Rl-16 but not that good. They've lost their rabbit a$$ minds.

    Outrageous Prices

    How many did you buy? LOL Im glad I laid back several thousand primers, along with several thousand bullets and many, many pounds of the powders I use when Trump was in office.

    I was outbid

    I bought a Styer ProHunter many years ago. That thing would shoot lights out. Wished I would have kept it.

    Powder is coming down.

    Ive got plenty of "spark" stashed away. With primer prices being 12-15 cents or more per piece I feel really good about the 3-4 cents I spent when I squeeze the trigger on my rifles. Most of my "bricks" were 30-35 dollars

    Powder is coming down.

    I wished the "reloading stores" in my area would get the memo to lower prices because what is available outside of Ramshot powders require a second mortgage to buy.
