No QL but I’m currently using 55g imr4350 with a 130 SGK at 3080fps from my Rem700 22”. I haven’t had luck in other cartridges but in this 270 it’s doing well
Guy, has there been any measurable difference between the measure and hand measuring? With regards to accuracy or even the ES/SD?
I’m starting to believe I’m overthinking this just a smidge
Your thread is what made me post this. I didn’t want to hijack it but I’m in the same boat. I’m wanting a quality scale but also not wanting to spend big money. Midway has an RCBS M1000 for $135 right now but I’m not 100% on it. Looking for some advice on trustworthy scales
So a recent thread about scales got me to thinking about replacing mice. It’s just a cheapy Amazon scale I think I paid less than $50 for. It’s a Brifit and measures .01 grain. Seems to work fine but I’m looking into a beam scale or possibly an electronic dispenser. What is your preferences of...
Am I seriously the only yokel weighing by hand still??? Maybe I need to get with the times
Anyone have a lead on a metal charge pan without buying a new scale?
I main hunt deer here but would love to get out west for elk. We have elk here but to pull a tag is like watching the grass grow…prolly never gonna see it. Oh but those deer are so tasty!
Just measured the group it was .455” I’d bet without coffee on the shooting table I could get it even smaller but I’m happy as all get out with this result. I’m gonna load up 20 and verify this.
I knew this gun was capable of more accuracy!!!! My seating depth was too short @3.28 oal. I haven’t measured it yet but looking like it would take a deer
I have no QL data but it’s always best to work up a load for your rifle with the given components. Here a link right to the VV website 270 page

I’m looking for some edumication on Berger boolits for hunting. I have not used them on game ever but I know Guy and some of the other guys here like them. I hunt from a tree stand in Pennsylvania so shots are not long at all. And yes this is in relation to my 30.06 looking to squeeze more...
Hey Guy… or should we call you Tex cause that there is some nice shootin!!! I am ok with hunting accuracy at 1” especially the distances I shoot game mainly deer unless random coyote pokes his head out of the tall grass. I’m in PA and hunt from a stand in the thick woods so an inch is totally...
That is more long range stuff I shoot 300 and in and mostly 150 or less at deer from a tree stand. I also reload the exact same way for 7 rifles and this one is the only one giving me anything less than 1/2” groups at 100yds. I’m not sure what my neck tension is nor do I for runout. It’s just...
So I have shot 150’s with 4064 and just made a few more to verify. I have some 180 Hornady IL and just picked up yesterday some BT 165’s just haven’t loaded 180 or BT yet
