I hope it's not true. These TA's shoot really nice in factory ammo for me. I would love to be able to load my own.

Is the icon a circle target with a ruler laying there or a black box, square target. I'm getting two different apps when I look that up.

Thanks for sharing! When i take my wife or kids out we only have one set of sticks because it's all I can carry reasonably. There have been times two shooters would work out. I may get one of these and stick on the Bogs. Thanks for the link JD!

I tried H1000 today. ES and SD are not where I need them and my speeds are too high. I'm thinking I need to possibly find another powder. I don't want a lot of empty case. I'm going to check my case capacity tonight with water then try the seated bullet test to see what capacity I really...

I started using N160 as a substitute for RL19. I'm actually very happy with it, burns cleaner for sure. I would have to check the charts again, but I'm pretty sure it lands right between 17 & 19. N560 is just a touch slower than 19. The short barrel can be handy in thick hunting conditions...

I've had good luck in a 280 with slow powder and mag primers, but not with a 19" barrel. N560 may do you well, or the powders JD mentioned. His load seems to consistently do well in the accuracy mark.

Thank you, that is what I experienced today. They all came out clean and none of them are showing this purple/bluish coloration to it. I've never seen this just from shooting though. I thought it was odd.

I feel like we are on the same page here. I'm chasing the most consistent, repeatable round over speed for sure. In anything I do, that is my goal with my reloads. That was a big reason I mentioned I wanted to check some charts and see what the little bit of extra speed gives me as far as...

I may not have been clear on this. I do not attest the coloration on the shoulders to my neck tension. I have never seen a case discolor of this nature. They are in my drying rack right now, I'm going to look at them after they have been cleaned to see what that color looks like now. Neck...

This round was the second firing. I was curious about hardness too. It's Peterson and I have some 6.5prc that is on 8th round firing without annealing. Would seem odd that this would be so much further ahead even considering charge weights.

It was to show the heat signature, purple and blue coloring I was getting on the shoulder. I think what we are seeing on my neck is due to not enough neck tension and I need to drop my resizing bushing a size or two down. The lighting to show the discoloration makes the neck look completely...

Thank you for the detail! I grabbed some brass and bullets a few days ago and put some test loads together. Norma brass, hot core 130g bullets. If this doesn’t go in the right direction I may reach out to you and see what we can work out on interlocks. They are a consistent bullet!

I forgot to post the H1000 stuff. I may play with some charts and see what difference the extra speed will really make in regard to wind .

Interesting day of shooting… I’m getting close but have a lot to figure out if I want to use this load for my shoot in a month. Based on the data Dr Mike grabbed from QL I decided to test N160 and H1000 because I have those on hand and I have a lot of both. I did a handful of rounds in N160 and...

I can't tell you how much I appreciate the data!

@DrMike would you have time to provide me with some QL data on these? I would very much appreciate that

You probably are already familiar with both and if so, sorry for all the unneccesary detail haha. All of these are pretty effective, I like the Gen 3 and 4 because you can remove the allen's and help with muzzle lift. Fat bastard Search Page This is the EC Tuner, I have one on a 300 Win. I...

Fantastic rifle! I'm assuming the barrel is threaded 5/8x24. if so, in my opinion of trying out many different breaks.. the fat bastard is hands down the best option out there. I would certainly do your research and get what makes you feel the most confident, but from tunability and...

I was wasting time yesterday at my LFS. One of the guys in there showed me a new Savage 110 Ultralight and said he thought I would like it. I have not been much of a Savage fan the last few years mostly due to other people's guns that I have toyed with. I do not like the Accutrigger at all...

My Pap used to call those confidence distances haha
