I think I'll focus on 68.5 grains and try a seating depth test. P

First off, ow. That SOB is a kicker! R26 results, Magnetospeed Sporter, two shots each, three charge weights, 3.290" OAL. 160 AB: 68 gr 3007, second shell wouldn't chamber, I blame Antifa 68.5 gr, 3039, 3042, avg 3040, es 3 69 gr, 3056, 3060, avg 3058, es 4 162 ELDX 68 gr 3036, 3030, avg...

What kind of info do you guys need? At this point in my sophistication I'm looking for mv ave, es, maybe sd. P

Good timing, I bought the Sporter this morning. It's not for handguns, so if that's a deal killer don't buy the Magnetospeed. P

You're welcome, but I'm just passing along wisdom from those much more experienced than I. P

I got this advice on another board: The first thing I recommend is to ignore the instructions supplied with the die. The second thing I recommend is to ignore whether or not the press you're using cams over at the top of its stroke. The die squeezes the neck onto a mandrel, so for a given...

All I do is neck size these days with my Lee collet die. Here's the deal: brass fired in a specific chamber will expand to fit that chamber. You don't need to full length resize (for 5-6 firings, anyway) since the brass conforms to that particular chamber. You need to match brass to a...

Tikka barrel is 22 7/16" P

Hornady has data for RL26 and 162 ELDX, but Nosler has no data for RL26 and 160 NAB (I called). I hear RL26 is the bee's knees in the 7mm Rem Mag. Anyone have experience with it and the 160 NAB? P

Deer, elk, antelope. My dad killed a big 5x5 bull with a single 140 AB in 2015 from his 7mm-08. P

Were you shooting at 200 yards? P

Three calibers, four cartridges, 14 rifles. .223 7mm-08, 7mm Rem Mag (same caliber) .30-06 P

I use Hunter for my 168 BT and 180 PT/NAB loads. Anyone have any data on the 178 ELD-X with Hunter? P

I tried the 150 ABLR with just about everything, no luck. Then I tried MagPro with a 160 Accubond. Great accuracy and right at 3k velocity. If you want a higher BC, look at the 162 ELD-X. I'm getting 2957 fps with H1000 and a little over half inch groups. P

I ran all of them through my rifle, close to 250 cases. Thirty-five didn't chamber, the rest were slick as snot. I'll check my brother's rifle too and FL resize any that don't chamber easily. P

I currently load for 2 7mm Rem Mags, both Tikkas. I have a bunch of once-fired brass, all Remington. Most of it (2/3) was fired in Tikka 1, the rest in Tikka 2. If I neck size only and the brass chambers easily in both rifles, am I good to go or do I still need to FL resize? I'll make sure...

Be advised the Feds count each bullet (not cartridge) as a loaded round. P

I load for family. Dad, brother, nephew. Brother, nephew, dad's bucks last year. Dad's bull 2015. More I can't remember. I love it. No one but family. P

Elk aren't armored. Put a well-constructed bullet (my experience is limited to Accubonds and Partitions) through the lungs and you'll have a dead cow. These elk were taken with a 7mm-08. One shot each. 140 Partition, 346 yards, exited. DRT. My dad's biggest bull so far, 140 Accubond...

Thanks but that's not the powder, brass, or primers I have. P
