    Good weekend with the ABLRs!

    i seen many complain about the ablr's, but no issues with the ab's across many forums. many are just about not expanding? i have several ablr's in 26, 27,28, 30 and 33cals, but haven't tested any yet. i don't hunt, only bought them for load and target testing due to advertised bc's...

    Barrel twist

    i don't have enough experience with that statement, but i'll try that 1 out with firearms in the same cartridge using the same ammo that have different twist. i have wondered about the affects of twist other than what's required to stabilize bullets. now my dilemma............most have only...

    Barrel twist

    here's an average per twist for 320k rpm 7 @ 3,110 7.5 @ 3,330 8 @ 3,550 8.5 @ 3,770 9 @ 4k bullet construction is the only thing that'll determine whether it'll stay together or not @ +/- 200fps. i believe thin skinned/plated bullets will have more of the issue from the rifling than rpm's.

    Barrel twist

    7t in the 25creed with 128 and up will work just fine in a 24" as speeds most likely won't reach 3,110. that's near 320k rpm.

    Anyone have load recipe for fire forming 264 Win Mag with faster powder?

    Cylinder Honing

    are you trying to polish back to near factory shape (look wise, not dimensions) for easier extractions/ejections? flex honing probably wouldn't be good unless it's a high grit like 2000 for knives. ball (dingleberry) would create too much pressure i'd think, but rigid (stone type like for...
