Digging up an old thread. I have a bag of Win brass with these oblong holes. Can anyone recommend a uniforming tool to fix? They definitely have brass tags hanging inside the case and I was going to get a Sinclair deburring tool to remove, but as far as fixing the uniformity of the flash hole...

I don't know about you guys but my manual ordered from Midway has been stuck at "Accepted" by USPS since 12/16. Hope it's not lost in the mail!

I have... and I don't. All I used to burn in my previous 25-06 was Retumbo and 120 Partitons. I did a lot of work with RL26 with my present 25-06,and never really settled on anything I was happy with mostly because of being overly cautious being that I only have QL data to work with. Then one...

That Scout in is pretty wild

Love the 25-06. Want to work on some loads for mine this winter

I've gotten pretty interested in looking at rifle suppressors recently and was searching for a good elk capable caliber that I could run with a real short barrel and still be efficient. My search brought me to the 338 Federal. This looks like a pretty neat cartridge. I've always shot 308 caliber...

Holy cow great shooting! 7828 and 180s is what I shot in my 300wby. Never that well though

ElmerThud you reports are what inspired me to try this load. I too have a 22" (22.5") barrel. I've done a bunch of work with RL26 with the Accubond, but thought I'd give a more readily available powder a try. Now I'm not sure how available it is! Just got back from the range and got 2936FPS...

Yes I have a couple chronos and would definitely work up. It just struck me as light from comparative sources. Thanks sir

No offense to anyone, but doesn't the book max for the 25-06, 110 AB, with IMR4831 seem a bit light? 51 gr, they list 52 gr for the 115 NBT in the same manual, Hogdon lists 53 with a 117gr bullet, and Hornady 52.8gr with a 110 interbond. I know, different components and all, but what do you think?

Do you ever feel like there are too many variables? Haha I sure do.

Thanks I'll seat a bit deeper. I did try 63.8 and it shot about the same. These will be my last 5 bullets until my order comes in. Turns out reloading supplies are still hard to get!

Yep I agree, I think I need to shoot it a bit more

I did the ladder workup to pick the load; 63.6 and 63.8 were velocity dups so I went with 63.7. However, when I shot it again through a chrono I was 66fps lower than before, but with a completely clean, cold barrel, so who knows. I did kind of a seating depth work up too but my jumps were...

I don't claim to be a good shooter, I'm just a hunter. But what do you think about this 5 shot group? I think it's 3 stacked in one hole, 2 in the other. The thrown shot could just be one, the target may have had a little bend, but I don't think so all others made nice .308 bullet holes...

Interesting, thank you sir.

Can anyone show me how Quickload compares to book data for this combo? 180 Accubonds Reloder 17 300 WSM 24.4" barrel length I hit 3015 at book max of 64, with a clean, cold barrel Thanks all

You and me both!

I always want to try the latest and greatest but I agree I'll stick with 17. I'm jealous of the new 325 WSM too I'd like one myself

This thread is great! Guy I hope you're sitting on a few kegs of Retumbo
