I'm working on a 270 WSM shooting the 150 ABLR for my father in law. I have it shooting pretty well with 62gr. (can cover three shots with a dime) and 63 gr (.5-.75 MOA) of H1000. According to the Nosler book that should be in the 2950-3050 range. I finally shot the 62 gr load over a chrony last...

I have been seeing this on my WLRM primers on loads that I know are not high pressure. Good to know it is not an issue with anything I'm doing. Maybe 1 or 2 out of 100. I switched to the WLRM when the 215 became hard to find. Looks like I'm going to have to switch up primers again and rework...

I played with RL-23 in my 280 AI with the 150 ABLR and the 168 ABLR. Didn't get anything worth getting excited about. I have had two different loads with RL-26 and the 168 ABLR go under half inch.

That is how my 280 AI was built. I bought a cheap beat up 110 as well. Sent a dummy round to PacNor and in a few months I had a barrel ready to screw on. Ordered the go/no-go gauges, screwed the barrel on and went shooting. I hunted with it in the original wood stock for a season or two then my...

I have had great luck with both of those powders. I can't find them locally anymore though. I really like them.

I have been running it in my 280 AI. I am getting 3115 with the 150 ABLR and around .5-.75" groups. With the 168 ABLR I got one ragged hole but I didn't have the Chrony set up. Based on Quickload I'm guessing this load to be around 2900 or so. I played with is in a 270 WSM with the 150 ABLR...

My wife, her dad, her brother and I all put in for unit 63 buck and doe tags this year. We were there in 2012 for does only and had a great time. Figured if we were going to drive the 16 hours we may as well try to get a buck as well. I was thinking about trying to bring the wall tent. From what...

My 338 WM is like that. 20-30 rounds and it goes to crap. Keep it really clean and it shoots great. Spent a custom barrels worth of powder and bullets fighting it before I figured it out. I'm thinking about trying some of the Tubbs bore conditioning bullets to smooth it out a bit. All my custom...

Just ordered two boxes to play with in my 6.5 SAUM. Hopefully they shoot as well as the berger and I get a chance to try them out on a speed goat or two this fall. Maybe even a buck. I'm excited!

Did well on the drinking and eating part, and the motivational part is picking up steam! Got the tread mill cleaned off and ready to roll tonight. Thinking that I might have better luck getting up in the morning and working out than I do in the evening but we'll see. As soon as my garage is...

I'm seeing that exact same mark on my 270 WSM 150 ABLR. The ones that seem to seat easier, don't have that ring. I'm running Hornady dies. I might have to see if I can find a VLD seating stem for them. They go bang, but I'm not thinking that I would hunt or load test with them.

I ran the 55gr BT out of my 243 for several years. Easily took over 100 dogs with it. I was running H380 and getting 3970 fps out of a 26" tube. Shot like a freaking lazar into bug holes! I have recently been running some 55gr Bt out of my AR, Very disappointed in the splat factor after using...

You guys are a couple of motivated individuals. I better jump on this bandwagon as well. My job has shifted to spending a lot more time in the office over the last few years. That in combination with having three kids under the age of 5 has taken about a 30lb toll. It became very evident last...

Agreed! If I can get them to hover around the .5" mark that will be about 100 fps faster than my H4831 load that shoots well. If they don't, back to H4831sc I go.

I took my 280 AI back out with some hotter charges of RL-26 and the 150 ABLR last weekend. I was able to get them up to 3200 with 63.5 gr, but they didn't shoot well at all. 62.5 gr ended up putting the first two right side by side and threw the third out maybe .75". They were running 3125 from...

I'm loading a 270 WSM for my father in law. Looking for any load info on the 150 ABLR. I found Scottys post with RL-25. I played around with RL-26, apparently it has a bit of a different burn rate as I maxed out at my starting load of 68 gr. I figured that if Scotty was getting the groups and...

I have had very good luck with Rl-17 in my 280AI with the 140 BTW and in my wife's 284 win with the 168ABLR. It seems pretty dang consistent to me.

I played with RL-23 with the 150 & 168 ABLR and just like RL-22 I got nothing worth mentioning.

I played around with RL-26 in my 280 AI last night with the 150 ABLR. I started at 60.5 Gr and worked up to 62. I'm running WLRM primers, Nosler brass and 3.350". 61 gr gave me a nice .75" triangle group doing about 3040 fps. both 61.5 and 62 gave me two in the same hole and one about an...

That is a darn fine group. I might have to give RL-26 a shot in mine.
