I measured my COAL using the cleaning rod method with an Accubond bullet I then got my measurement that I wanted with the bullet comparator. Will this still work with any bullet since the comparator hits the ogive? Same measurement would apply to a Partition?
Any have issues with primer pockets? It seems like 2-3 loads and my primer pockets become loose in 30-06. I really have no pressure signs and these were 56-56.5gr of IMR 4350 with a 168gr bullet.
We just got an Elk with a 30-06 using 55gr of H4350 with 180gr Accubond reload.
The shot was around 265 yards and it went down instantly. It entered through a rib, then through the lungs, and out through the other rib. The exit hole through the rib was twice the size as the entry hole...
