What rifle did you get and what does it have on it for a break? My 28 is in an X bolt with a Recoil Hawg break on it and the gun is a dream to shoot.

My nemesis, the 25-06 Vanguard haha I'm going to load some rounds with Grand once we get at least back into double digits and stay there for a day or two. My game plan is load it in the 20's and dial it in.. make a handful of that dialed in load then shoot that round in various different temps...

Thank you for the detail and sharing your load results. That's a group that I would be happy with any day of the week! I actually bought Grand on Thursday.. but for all the wrong reasons (broke a rule of mine in that I wouldn't use spherical powder anymore too haha). I know it has a big...

I pulled all the different load references online for and in my physical manuals as well. I referenced Speer, Berger, Nosler, and Hodgdons data for 130's. I looked at similarity's and ruled out any oddities from each manual. All of that is great data. I was hoping to compare it to real world...

That is fantastic. My regular Peterson with my hunting load grows roughly .004

Hello, I don't want to be a burden to anyone with QL access but when you have time can I get some help obtaining some QL data for my Mag? Tikka T3X - 24" barrel 150g Berger Classic Hunter PN: 28571 These are the powders I would like to test; (If anyone has experience with others that are...

I appreciate this detail. This is what i was hoping for when i made the post and a few have provided that. I used this data as a reference for starting out on these. I know it's a long shot in the dark, but I'm hoping for acceptable results.

This is essentially what I did on the test loads and what I am hoping for. I leave for TX on 2/8. I have three batches of test rounds and each batch has 3 rounds in it. I went moderate on all three and cam .01 less than max on the book spec. We shall see what results this yields and make...

I run Peterson in most all of my rifles at this point. I have slowly been switching over. all of my 7 mags are now Peterson brass. Wish I would have grabbed the long before getting this far in it. If what they say is true about the long version, those benefits are appealing to me for sure...

I lived in the Pittsburgh area back in those days. I did a lot of PPC shoots with 1911's before we decided to make our own basketball team with kids. The only indoor ranges was Trafford Sportsman in Monroeville. I've never done any centerfire pistol shootings.

You don't notice any swings in the hot temps compared to the cold? That's awesome! It certainly seems to have some interest amongst reloaders

I got big game for Maddie’s 7-08 and found it to be temp sensitive, but not to the extremes I’ve heard about some of these spherical powders, magnum and grand being two big ones.

Not far from me at all, the next town over! The shoot I'm doing is in Sykesville area, up on top of Rockton basically.

I've heard (never tested this) it's very temperamental to ambient temp swings. You essentially have to load it in the same conditions you plan to shoot. Is it really that bad though?

This one is great, the one I prefer is the SuperTrickler. You don't need a tablet or phone to use it as it's all in one and loading/unloading powder from the hopper is 10 times easier. They are both awesome options. You can get the Supertrickler with an FX or FD scale as well. It's worth...

I will look into that for sure. I've been hunting for decades, we just never went out west. Western US and Africa are now on my hit list and I know for both of these, I need to extend my range. That is the purpose here. The local shoot I'm doing is IBS style, but it's not sanctioned or...

It's a long shot, I'm very aware of that. Whatever is the driving factor in the two of them wanting me to do this must be a strong one

He would without a doubt be better off just buying a factory round, especially for his expectations haha... but I'm past that part unfortunately lol. I have his once fired brass with me and I ordered new Norma brass earlier today (it's in stock at my LFS and not Hornady or Winchester stuff). I...

I certainly tried to differ, one of my little brothers live in the same town and the other is the next town over. Both of them reload as well, just aren't as far along in the reloading venture as I am. Either of them would have been able to put together what is wanted here for sure.

All good points for sure. I'm in the camp ready to try one out. I already have a few short barrel rifles and no suppressor on them, I like the lightweight, and the compact set ups are much easier in my application than my 24-26 long barrels in big heavy guns. I still love those for sure and...
