    Showing Promise!

    Yes sir, 100 yds. I am trying to put together a 139 SST load for my 7-08. I'll be loading a few more and see if I can duplicate my previous results. Its been really nice in my neck of the woods lately. Hate to rub it in but it's suppose to be 68-74 degrees most of all next week. The last...

    Showing Promise!

    The "majority" was from those I talked with. Your mileage may vary tho. Isn't it grand that we have choices and can find combo's that work the best in our rifle... Carry on friend.

    Showing Promise!

    7 aught 8 rifle and yes, a Winchester magnum primer to get the Big Game powder moving. I know that a magnum primer in the 7 08 goes against conventional thinking. Magnum primers may not be useful or needed in a lot of recipes, but talking with people that use Magnum primers with Big Game in...

    Showing Promise!

    Instead of buying 7-08 brass I took some of my many 308 brass and necked them down. Wall neck thickness came in at about 12-13 thou, loaded case neck diameter came in around .314-.315.

    Showing Promise!

    Since it's been around 65-68 degrees the past few days and looking like a little warmer in the coming days I got to the range today to test a few loads. This is looking like it might be the one.

    Requiring liability policy to buy or possess firearms

    Nothing more than another gun grabbing attempt by the snowflake liberals that think picking up a turd by the clean end is possible. If by some chance this lunacy gains traction in the state of Washington, you can rest assured the vultures, (insurance companies) will "play ball" in the state...

    Reloader 17..

    There's no doubt that the Alliant powders were nonexistent for quite a while and they may still be quite scarce in some places but in my area it kind of ebbs and flows. Right now, some are available but as noted earlier, it's way too expensive for my taste considering I have powders that work...

    Reloader 17..

    What's this talk of these powders being out of production? Ive been seeing some of the Reloder series showing up at my local shop. Ive seen RL22, 15.5, 19, 16,. However, it's not been cheap tho. I use to really like the RL series of powders, especially RL16, but since they were virtually...

    .243 Win brass defects...anyone else??

    I concur, I have some Nosler 308 brass that the weight variation between cases is 6-7 grs. Like you, their brass is LOW on my list

    Reloader 16 powders

    I like RL-16 and it works very well in my 7 oh 8 with 140 Sierra GK's. Speed is in the low 28 hundreds and accuracy is oh so fine. However, in my rifle it really doesn't do anything that Varget or IMR 4895 won't do and I have plenty of the aforementioned on hand. With my stash of powder I won't...

    Finally, Hens Teeth Have Been Found.

    Yep, magnums they are. Makes them even more of a "hens tooth" Back in Trumps first go 'round I started buying primers and powder. I have enough of both to last me the rest of my life. Big Game, IMR-7828, Varget, IMR-4895, IMR-4831, H414, RL-22. The only powder I wished I had was RL-16. I have...

    Well, after three years I've actually saw the elusive large rifle primer. Glad I didn't need them.

    Christmas Eve

    Merry Christmas! And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day...

    Good deal on bullets

    I know you did not buy 2nd's, but I bought several hundred .284 cal 2nds a couple years ago that were clearly 154gr SST's. When I recieved the bullets I weighed and measured the 2nds against some of the 1st quality that I had. I found a weight difference of maybe 2 grs and a length difference of...
