Congratulations on your upcoming marriage. There are some outstanding looking benches and ideas that you will be able to have a great loading bench and storage area.

Looks like you have another winner.

I agree with the others that having the rifle in hand is what works the best. Powders mentioned are good so is IMR4831. Has worked well in 4-5 270s I've personally loaded for. Being your father's friend is that far away, and it was mentioned try some factory loads, how about finding someone...

Well done.

Jim that is impressive to say the least.

Neat looking old shell boxes there Cloverleaf. I used to kind of collect them but have reduced my collection quite a bit. Good of example of back in the day.

What I can find out this would seem to offer a good bolt action rifle in 35 Whelen at a reasonable price not having to go the donor route-reboring, re-barreling or high prices for Remington models. Time will tell.

Hoppes. Just for the smell:)

A friend of mine texted me an ad for this and I didn't know it existed. Anybody know, seen, handled one of these? I searched CVA website and read about it. Just wondered if, what any of you guys had to say. Friend is interested in it.

That is good shooting plus satisfying that you did it all yourself. Congratulations.

Quality results.

The 100gr PT in the last 243 I had was the best deer bullet I found that grouped and performed hands down.

I haven't seen IMR 4350 on the shelf for a while as H4350 is here or there.

I can understand your frustration. Sometimes PTs are not the most accurate bullet for me, but I've never experienced the level of inaccuracy you have stated. We all know some rifles just don't like certain bullets or load combinations. 1-1.5 in group size that you are willing to accept for the...

Nice.

Nice, well thought out.

Read where Ruger has brought out that Glenfield model using the name from having purchased Marlin and putting it on the Ruger American. Sounds as if it can fill a niche.

I like most of what everyone has picked, at least when offered the opportunity for some not native to my area. Once heard a guy ask another if he had eaten woodpecker? The other said no he hadn't, what does it taste like. The guy said about like a Robin:oops: Go figure.

My limited SST experience has been the 129,140 in 6.5x55Have seen my son use them in 270 Win, 338-06 and 8x57. Grandson used them in a 260Rem. Personally, I think if not hotrod, they work on whitetails just fine. Have had the Nosler BT to go rapid sometimes depending on the caliber and weight...

Fine shooting. Interesting choice of calibers.
