    Hornady's new 257 Ackley Improved (Improved) or AII

    I'd be all over that if it's true, but I can't imagine them coming out with that after they just released the 25 CM. Not much of a performance difference. If anything, maybe a 25 PRC? Though a 257 Roberts AII does sound very intriguing! My favorite caliber is the 257 Roberts, killed my first...

    Tikka T3x Roughtech

    Man those are some great velocities, especially the 140gr load. So much for slow Tikka barrels. Looks like you have some very promising results and with a touch more tweaking, you'll be dialed. Though there's not a thing wrong with those results!

    185 gr Berry's Hollow Base plated bullets

    I like those Berry bullets as well. Shot quite a few in 9mm, 40 & 45 along with the Rainier plated bullets. Just don't push them too fast. My Springfield 1911 liked the 200gr SWC Berry's version over Titegroup.

    I guess I'll bite, what's a Herman?

    Same, only seen purple on the mags.

    44 Mag Bullet Test

    I wonder if the thicker plastic of the 5 gal buckets is affecting things?

    44 Mag Bullet Test

    Interesting results. Not much expansion going on there. The Hornady FTX tends to like being driven a lot faster, not sure about the others. Not your pretty full mushrooms, but results are results.

    Awesome shooting and some nice velocity out of the creedmoor. Whats your rifle setup?

    Tikka T3x Roughtech

    Gotta love Tikka's and the good ol' 270 Win. Ramshot Hunter does very well in my 270 with 130gr Accubonds & Interbonds. So many good powders and bullets available.

    308 Win 180 grain Norma Bondstrike

    @badaxeriverman I know you've posted that about the Accubonds acting like FMJ's over and over but you're the only person I've ever heard claim that. I've been using the Accubonds since they came out in multiple different calibers on coyotes, tons of deer and hogs with MV's from 2400 to 3000+ and...

    New old rifle 7MM mag

    Love those CZ550's and thats a handsome rifle. Let us know how it shoots! One things for sure, those rings won't shift on that Ruger. Can't believe Cabelas even took that in.

    Good weekend with the ABLRs!

    Excellent shooting! I've become a big fan of the ABLR's and have taken several deer with them including out of a 6.5 PRC. What kind of velocity are you getting with N565 and the 142's?

    Squib Load

    It's scary when that happens. Luckily I've only had that happen twice. Once with a .45 ACP reload where I forgot powder and the other with a factory 9mm. The 45 went off and stovepiped and the bullet lodged in the barrel just enough to keep the next round from chambering all the way and saved my...

    Hodgdon's online data center shows load data for the 140gr Hornady ELD-M bullet, but that data will work. Start on the low end and work up. https://hodgdonreloading.com/rldc/

    Presses and Impressions

    I inherited a RCBS Jr from my dad, who bought it from my godfather. I still load all my rifle loads on it and can only imagine the amount of rounds that have been cranked out on it over the years. It's cool to see so many people who use/used one on the forum. I got a Hornady LNL progressive...

    Whitetail bullet options

    The Partition, Accubond, Accubond LR, Ballistic Tip and Solid Base are all excellent deer bullets. All of the above, minus the Solid Base are a substantial step up from the Core-lokt. None of the Nosler bullets are too "hard" for deer, even small ones. The front core on the Partition is quite...

    .257 Roberts hunters only

    With that 7.5 twist, you can shoot all the new heavy high BC 25 cal bullets and still shoot the lighter 100-120gr bullets just fine. I wish my 257 Weatherby had the fast twist.

    .257 Roberts hunters only

    I have killed quite a few deer and hogs with Nosler's bullets in a 257 Roberts with a 24" barrel including the 100 & 115gr Ballistic Tip, 100 & 115gr Partition and the 110gr Accubond. My favorites are the 110gr Accubond and 100gr Partition. I've had excellent results with all of the them. My 257...
