Well that is lower than I thought. I should be content with a 140 out of 7x57 hitting low to mid 2900s and being below 60 k. Accurate too. Thank you Dr. Mike.

Thanks Scotty.

During Covid when powder became difficult to find, H4350 was the only thing I could find, or so it seemed. I ran out of Rl 26; 22; 19; 17;15, you get the idea. I’ve now got a load worked up in all my rifles from .22-250 to 375HH using H4350. H4350 works well in my 300HH which has the same case...

I’m recalling the failure to Crome line the chambers of the early M16 A1.

Not quite apples to apples but my brother has killed a couple of elk with either the 180s or 165 out of his 06 at bow hunting ranges as has my BIL with his 7mm RM./160s. No tracking that I recall, they were pretty much DRT. I do recall one mule deer in a big sage brush choked flat we had trouble...

Vince we were to be down there by thanksgiving but the Son in Laws cancer treatment became more complicated. We have stayed to keep tabs on the stock, dogs, farm, green houses, farm stand and most importantly the grand daughter. The kids have to travel for treatment but it appears like the...

Took the gravel into town, found these guys near the bottom of Mt. Emily. They're 1200 yards out so the pics not great

Very interesting.

Well dang, that's pretty good!

I’ll take all the 300 gr pt. If no one else has and one each of the 165 Ab and 180 partitions.

Getting ready for prairie poodles are you?

I load them for one of my brothers and one of my brother in laws. Every year I witness the effectiveness on deer and elk. They are a good bullet.

Picture isn’t great but this loaded cartridge is .01 off the lands and the couple I fired showed pressure. This load was not particularly accurate compared to the load that was .05 off the lands. At .05 off the case mouth pics up one more band and I would guess significantly increases tension on...

Have you checked that over all length (2.870) in your magazine? I havne’t loaded for the 308 since Catherine stole my 275 Rigby several years ago. I ran into the magazine length restriction with her 308 but I don’t have that data immediately available. My experience is you’ll get a little more...

This is why I like RL 17; 100 and 300 yards; 7x57 Mauser; 50.1gr Rl17; 2924fps; 140gr Accubond; 2.5x8 leupold.

Last time I talked to him the feeling was mutual.

Great story great area hell of a good guide.

I saw dies available on a couple of the regular reloading sites at regular prices. Brass as well. Just now on gun broker I found brass at a good price for obsolete cartridges and even loaded ammunition from 5 bucks a round to about 2.25 a round. I honestly can’t remember buying factory ammo but...
