    270 WSM with 150 NAB L/R help

    I didn't have any luck with RL-26, but I have a good shooting load doing 3010 fps with RL-23. 62gr I think.

    260 gr Accubond Accuracy w/375 Ruger

    I had great luck with my 375R and the 260 AB with Ramshot Big Game, H100v, and IMR 4895. The H100V wasn't the fastest thing in the world at 2730 fps, but it shot and honest .3" group.

    What is the best fastest cleaner you ever used?

    I have settled on using a few patches of shooters choice and a brush just to get the loose carbon out. After that I switch to a soaked patch of Wipe out accelerator, followed by a soaked patch of patch out/wipe out. This seems to work very well for me. On really stubborn barrels (my father in...

    Loading for the 280 Ackley...

    I played with RL-26 with the 150 ABLR and was never able to get anything to shoot consistently under .5" in My 280 AI. I knew the gun was capable of much better as I had groups in the .2 and .3 range with the 120 BT, 140 BT with three different powders, 140 AB, and 160 AB. So I switched to the...

    Back to the Rifles!

    Guy- Glad to hear you are recovering well. Hope things work out well for you. Just take your 375 out once a month or so. That thing is to pretty to be collecting dust! We just finished wheat harvest last week so I have finally had time to do a little shooting the last few mornings as well. It's...

    260 AI

    The 260 AI has always been interesting to me. Looks like yours is doing quite well.

    Would you fear???

    I used to think that the BT line was ment for coyotes and varmits. I had my eyes opened a little when I was playing with the 120 BT and 140 Bt in my 280 AI and 7-08. I shot the 120 Bt out of the 7-08 and it took several mule deer, all clean one shot kills that were quite impressive. I used...

    Long but good day at the range.

    Thanks Mike. I was pleased to say the least!

    270 WSM H1000 150 ABLR

    Worked up to 69 gr. 66 showed the most promise. Running right at 2930 fps. Not what the 270 WSM is capable of, but good enough. I got a 1" group with this load. I adjusted the seating depth longer and that was the wrong direction, so I'm going to try .005" and .010" shorter. One of those two...

    Long but good day at the range.

    Scott, I have been playing with the ABLR in my 280 AI for a while and finally settled on a load. I worked with the 150 ABLR for over a year, even took a nice buck at 475 yards with them, but accuracy was never what the gun was capable of. I switched to the 168 and played around with them...

    300 zero for hunting

    I have this debate with myself quite often. I have use a 200 yard zero for anything that has some sort of compensating reticle like the B&C Leupold, or TMR. Everything with a duplex gets zeroed at 250 and dialed if needed. But I practice with holdovers out to 400 as well. I find that usually...

    270 WSM H1000 150 ABLR

    I'm hoping that I can get out tomorrow early morning to try some new loads. I was able to get up to 69 grains in the case, but it was packed in there pretty good.

    270 WSM H1000 150 ABLR

    I'm not sure, but I'm going to try. got plenty of room with 63 gr.

    270 WSM H1000 150 ABLR

    WOW! That kind of puts things into perspective a bit. Thanks Mike. I'm hoping I can get it dialed in by October. We are going to be starting wheat harvest today so my beloved rifle time is going on hold for the next month and a half. If all goes well I will have a week or so between alfalfa...

    270 WSM H1000 150 ABLR

    I'm working on a 270 WSM shooting the 150 ABLR for my father in law. I have it shooting pretty well with 62gr. (can cover three shots with a dime) and 63 gr (.5-.75 MOA) of H1000. According to the Nosler book that should be in the 2950-3050 range. I finally shot the 62 gr load over a chrony last...

    What caused this???

    I have been seeing this on my WLRM primers on loads that I know are not high pressure. Good to know it is not an issue with anything I'm doing. Maybe 1 or 2 out of 100. I switched to the WLRM when the 215 became hard to find. Looks like I'm going to have to switch up primers again and rework...

    Rl23 in the 280AI

    I played with RL-23 in my 280 AI with the 150 ABLR and the 168 ABLR. Didn't get anything worth getting excited about. I have had two different loads with RL-26 and the 168 ABLR go under half inch.

    Bargain Savage/Stevens build?

    That is how my 280 AI was built. I bought a cheap beat up 110 as well. Sent a dummy round to PacNor and in a few months I had a barrel ready to screw on. Ordered the go/no-go gauges, screwed the barrel on and went shooting. I hunted with it in the original wood stock for a season or two then my...

    Ramshot Powder

    I have had great luck with both of those powders. I can't find them locally anymore though. I really like them.

    RL 26 - What have you tried it in? Results? And

    I have been running it in my 280 AI. I am getting 3115 with the 150 ABLR and around .5-.75" groups. With the 168 ABLR I got one ragged hole but I didn't have the Chrony set up. Based on Quickload I'm guessing this load to be around 2900 or so. I played with is in a 270 WSM with the 150 ABLR...
