I'm excited to build a load for this thing......
Nosler brass for 7 Remington Magnum:
In March 2015 purchased 100 Nosler brass, was excellent quality and weighed 215 grains.
Also had some much older Norma brass that weighed 218 grains. I could load interchangeably either brass with no noticeable difference in speed or accuracy.
In March 2016...
I started last July trying to get a supply of 90 AB in .243! It has been a bust went thru long backorder that was supposed to be available in November, didn't happen. Then reordered 500 from both bullets.com and cabela AGAIN. Was ETA ship date of approx Feb 15, 2016.
Just now got word from...
Can someone please run QL on 2 powders for me with in .243 Win with 20" barrel. Looking at predicted OBT's mostly to target velocity from.
Run with H4350 & IMR4831
.243 Win
90gr Accubond COAL = 2.675"
20" Barrel
I have searched a lot and only found QL data on 22 and 24" barrels.
Thank you...
Anyone using H4350 with 90 AB in 243.
Reason I ask is Nosler Load Data states 43.5 is max with IMR4350.....
So i go to Hodgdon site and look at 90 grain bullet loads (think they use Speer SP)...
But on their site they state max at 1.5 grain higher with H4350 (44.5gr) than with IMR4350...
Found what looks like could be an excellent load for a 20" barrel factory Remingtion 700 Mountain Rifle if any body has interest.
Load is 39 grains AR Comp

QL Request with known data, wondering just what pressures actually are predicted.
28 Nosler
180 Berger Hybrid seated .010 off
Fired case H2O 102.1 grains
OAL 3.707

24" Barrel
This should be interesting.
Opinions, thoughts?? Saw this over on Longrangehunting.com
Seems several of the guys there are using this redneck method of tightening primer pockets successfully.

Having tested both 4831's and RL 26 and still not as accurate as I would like I am thinking on MRP as I have 2lbs of it sitting here. Could someone run QL on this for me? Thank YOU
Any help on speed to look for would help, thought on using RL 22 data but see a slight difference in VMD and speed...
Don't own one of course but have some interest in data to help decision making. Pie in sky but has me thinking.
Does anyone have enough info on the case dimensions to run a QL on the 28 Nosler with 180 grain berger match hunting vld?? Thinking OAL would be near 3.5"
This is 3rd trip with this load and it has been excellent so far.

After testing up to 73.5 grains in 7mmRM with decent accuracy across the load weights from 70 to 73.5 with the 140AB's here are some more notes that may help anybody using it.
*Although no real visible pressure signs it was stretching primer pockets at about 72 to 72.5 grains (didn't realize...
Working up a load for 7mm Rem Mag with 140 AB. I started at 71 grains and moved up half a grain at a time until I reached Quickload predicted velocity. Not having any knowledge of this NEW powder I was careful to track how it reacted as it was put under load and track temps from 35 to 75...
