I would start with trail boss and either of those bullets. Here is a link on trail boss use. https://www.hodgdon.com/resources/data-sheets/ I use trail boss with a 308 with great results.

I have had great results with H335 and 55 btips. I started load work at 23 gr. and had best accuracy at Noslers listed max. of 25,from guide #6. For some reason I did not chrono this load.

I have only check at 43 degrees and 65 degrees. The 43 day was with once fired cases and 65 was with new cases. 43 was 2746 fps 65 was 2690 fps This was with 150 Bt's.

I have found E-Tips like a jump so I would work my way shorter looking for improvement.

Why not remove the depriming pin and just resize? I have done this several times. I have also just used the depriming die.

I found 90.5 gr of H1000 shot very well.

Ok I found this. From Oct 2015 The moose population is declining in Manitoba's Turtle Mountain area, and hunting the animals in the area is no longer an option says Manitoba Conservation and Water Stewardship. Manitoba wildlife officers seek leads in illegal moose hunting cases...

sask boy I looked online and could not find any mention of a ban on moose hunting in Manitoba. The outfitters I also checked are advertising 2017 and 2018 hunts. Do you have a link to something I missed? It would be a shame to have the hunts ended.

H1000 was developed for 1000 yard comp in the 300. At least that is what I remember reading.

I did Manitoba in 2007 with Burntwood Lake Lodge and had a great time. www.burntwood.com

JB over 24hourcampfire has switched most of his 4350 loads to 4451. Said it is easier to find than H4350.

Ya gotta love it when a plan comes together. Congrats to the both of you.

Why not run your own test? I tested sorting and weighing with my rifle and discovered it was not worth the work. YMMV

I use the candle method it is cheap and effective.

I have taken more deer with Sierra pro hunter bullets than any other but have also used Nosler partitions, Barnes TSX and am working up loads with E-tips. They all work if put in the right place.

I now use new brass for hunting. I work up loads with fired brass and then confirm with new brass. If I do use once fired brass I always run all the ammo through the rifle to be sure it all functions as well as new.

You need to use the same brass in both rifles for a valid comparison to eliminate brass as a variable. I have a 300 RUM that is at max pressure with Nosler brass at starting loads and with R-P brass does not get to max pressure until max loads are reached. Same powder, primer and rifle only...

I might try taking the best load and trying some different primers. I have been playing R-26 in several rifles and would give that a try. Also with several 6.5 rifles, a 6.5x55 and 2 264's I have had good results with 140 Sierra GameKings.
