    Heavier 6mm hunting bullet - Nosler listening?

    Agreed, doubtful is a good assessment of the situation. They can sell all the bullets of the current design they can make, so spending R&D funds on new niche bullet weights seems unlikely.

    Favorite bullets and powders for the 358 Win? Crimp?

    I like the 200 gr. Hornady FTX for deer, but it's a little soft for elk. IMR 3031 has delivered the highest velocity in my M-88 and the accuracy is more than reasonable.

    6mm E-Tip 90 gr "real" min twist

    Long ago I purchases some 86 gr. e-tips from SPS and they were stable in my 6mm AR(6mm Grendel) that has a 1/10 twist Shilen barrel.

    Accuracy Diff with primers.

    A long, long time ago I was testing my favorite 308 mid-range load in my 40XB match rifle with different primers. Groups were generally at or under an inch at 200 yards, until I tried some Winchester LR primers and the groups swelled to over 2 MOA.

    30-06 and N555

    Running the pressures of the 30-06 up to those for a 270 makes the 30-06 performance shine. I can get the 180 NAB leaving a 22" barrel at ~2850 fps with several powders.

    Same rifle different loads

    When it comes to hunting, I'm pretty much one load for the duration of hunt as reducing variables is important to me. That's not to say that I only have one hunting load for a particular rifle, as different game often requires different bullet construction and weight.

    Took my 22-284 to the range today

    This chambering came about when I mis-cut a 22-250 AI chamber on a 26" 9 twist barrel I had. It was a lemons to lemon-aid undertaking so to say. I had a bag of 70 gr. RDF seconds that I decided to use for load development, as I was unable to find an accurate load for them in my 223 and 224...

    Afganistan

    270 Win SGK 130gn H4831 ladder test.

    My experience with 130 gr. bullets in a 270, the powder sweet spot for performance are powders are: H4350, RL-17, RL-19. My 270 has a 24" barrel and all three of these powders deliver accuracy in my rifle and with higher velocity than H4831 generates. If you're not getting the accuracy you are...

    270win ladder Barnes TTSX130gn, Norma brass, RL17

    RL-17 makes my 270 rock with 130 gr. bullets. You have plenty of pressure headroom to increase the amount of RL-17 and perhaps going forward you will find the magic point of power and accuracy.

    Back at it again with the 22 hornet!

    Be sure to try the 40 gr Nosler VG and 300MP powder in your Hornet. It's magic in mine. John

    Really???

    I'm seeing H4350 locally for far less than that. I'm wondering if the manufacturers are having retailers "bid" on available powder and some pay elevated prices just to have something on the shelf to sell.
