I love everything about that gun! very nice work, can't wait to hear how it shoots. I really like that stock too, turn around time wasn't terrible either.
As you mentioned, it's all relative. I would look at what case the two are using, what primer, ensure the barrel lengths and also take note that Hodgdons typically stops around 60k on PSI where Nosler may push closer to the edge of 62k. I remember seeing a load in one of their magazines that...
I have heard about this but have not tried it. My FIL actually told me to get it for my wife's bodyguard that she sometimes CC's and that I should get it for my K6... He mentioned Buffalo Bore. That was as far as that went though. Maybe I should try this out. Seems there is enough positive...
Nothing I can add here that these guys haven't already touched on. If it won't shoot 180's from factory ammo in a tight group it's most likely an equipment issues for sure. My 300 wsm all shoot well, it's a fantastic caliber.
I also use it for my 38'sas well! Snub nose revolvers takes a special load to try to add any practicality to it at all haha. The snap and lift is unavoidable haha.
I'm probably not going to help you here, especially since you are after bullseye loads. When i was shooting PPC/IDPA/and Bullseye before we got too busy for me to practice and enter, I exclusively shot with 1911's in 45. Hands down my favorite pistol platform. Obviously, shooting 45 put me at...
That's essentially what I do. I haven't had any issues at all with temp swings being significant enough to impact my POI at the distances I hunt/shoot at anyway. I would much rather do load development late fall/early winter. It's just not in the cards for me. I could do some shooting this...
I have a good customer that I consider a friend in Red Deer and I hear of the struggles you all have for the simplest things in this industry. I sure hope it gets better, but I don't suspect that would be any time soon.
Like I mentioned, it's due to timing with my work more than anything else. Over the years that's just what has came to be, but has not been an issue for me since getting away from Reloader powders and any ball powder. It's also nice to know my loads do me well in such diverse conditions.
I pay close attention to this because I do so much shooting in 75-90 degrees and a lot of testing. When hunting season comes around for me, it's my busy season at work and I get much less time to test or work on new loads. When I test at 80 degrees then hunt at 20, that shift was very real for...
Enjoy your time and the weather! haha
I'm not sure what all your wife and you are into, but my Great Aunt owns a tour company in Tucson. It's a Jeep tour and they show a lot of historic sites, do camps and provide food. It's a really need ride and very educational. It's called Trail Dust...
I must be lucky, these prices don't look that great for me, especially for a "sale". The stores around me have these prices for everyday purchase haha.
WLRM are my favorite primer with 215GM right behind it! It's always nice to test primers, that is typically the last thing I adjust when trying to dial a load in. I've found speeds to not change by much, but I have seen ES dial in nicely with primer changes.
It's probably all feeding to China and Israel anyway.. I just don't trust any of it and don't think we should be investing so much in it. If it works out the way they state, people will no longer think for themselves... they will just ask the AI.. no more research, no more educating and...
