    I have been replacing my Varri X-II and VX2(also one VX1) scopes with VX3i scopes and have been happy.

    Nosler 30 cal 180 BT vs 165 BT

    I always used 150gr PAR in my 308win/30-06/300win mag with great results on deer/pigs and pronghorn. Now I am required to use non-lead in Calif so I use 130-150gr Barnes TTSX and get good results. Never saw a need for anything heavier than 150gr.

    44 Rem Mag and 240gr JSP Info in Lever Actions

    I use and prefer H-110/Win296 to all other powders for FPS and accuracy and it burns cleaner than 2400. Use a heavy crimp and do not download it from specs

    .270 Starline brass to .25-06

    because you are necking it down the case necks may be thicker. I would back off the load from max to start with and test a few rounds. Better yet get 25-06 brass to start with :)

    New to loading Barnes TTSX, any suggestions

    In the 7-08 use 110gr TTSX. I suggest 120gr TTSX for the 7mag. I would NOT use the 140gr in the 7-08. Like stated push them fast for better terminal performance and accuracy. Also give them a LOT of bullet jump. Suggest you load them so the top relief groove is just showing or even deeper...

    Magpro powder??

    It was the best powder for my 264win mag and 100gr bullets 75.8grs, mag primer and 3644fps SD15. It also worked well and a couple of others I load for both different bullets and cartridges

    Primer costs....very sad

    I also have bullets that were $3.59/100 and powder that was $3/lb and some surplus for less than that. Primers for $.67/100. But all of that is old stock that still works fine. The last time I bought primers was when it is very hard to get Fed 215 primers and I bought 10 cartons of 1000 each for...

    Primer question

    I have been told a lot of people use pistol primers for the 22Hornet. I do not own one so I cannot say personally

    Nosler E-Tip has a ring?

    Guy Miner---Sorry my mistake. I stopped looking at them when they did not have relief grooves.

    Nosler E-Tip has a ring?

    Thanks for the info on the E-Tip. That was one of my big beefs about it. It will get to be a better bullet when they put a tip on it and a larger cavity for better expansion. The relief grooves(I hope the put more than one) is a good start.

    Difference between nosler and hornady brass for 338

    I have found the Nosler brass gives less FPS than win/weatherby brass and even more so the Hornady brass. Hornady brass has given me the most FPS on several different rifle cartridges and Nosler the least. I have not had any pressure problems with it and my loads are max loads for hunting. Same...

    I use the 100gr TTSX set at 3.186" OAL using 71grs of RL22 with a Fed215 primer for 3531FPS over my chrono. Very accurate and deadly.

    Fun with the 338

    Try 225gr Swift A-Frames with 71grs of IMR4350 and a Fed 215 primer at 3.296" OAL. Win or Hornady brass worked better(more FPS and lower SD) than Nosler brass. Super accurate and deadly

    Thank You. I did not want teeth showing since it might scare my grandkids and I do not care for the aggressive type mounts anyway
