I just acquired about 116 pieces of ones fired PMC brass in 270 Winchester. I don’t own a 270. I do own a couple of 30-06 and a 35 Whelen. My plan was to neck them up to 35 Whelen. I think I did this years ago with about eight or nine pieces of 270 brass and some 280 brass I found at the range...
I like the idea of the “ballistic tip looking” projectile. I know they’re not recommended for anything faster than 35 Remington velocities but I’m curious at how they would do going faster out of a 35 Whelen on a Whitetail deer? Anybody ever tried them and if so, how did they do?
I’m just curious about my velocities, but since bow hunting season is starting to go prime I don’t plan on going back to the range to run my loads across the chronograph to figure out my drops. Could someone run velocities on two of my loads if they have the quickloads program! If so they’d be...
A few years back I was crushing case necks on my 35 Rem brass when trying to seat .358, 180 grain Speer Hot Cores. I couldn’t figure out what was going on at first. Check the specs on my die i’ve used quite a bit in the past with the same bullet, and the measurements were within spec. And then...
I bought the gun back around 99’ or 2000’. It’s a Remington 700 stainless pencil barrel LSS. It never grouped super tight with the groups laminate stock. Normally a hair over MOA. Sent it in to be cryogenically treated. I had a KDF break installed, which is now removed and a thread cap put on. I...
I ordered this gun as a special run probably in 2019. I’m guessing. Never been able to get nice groups with it worth a darn. It also wouldn’t feed ammo so it went back to Remington. I tried so many ladder tests in it with poor results that I really got sick of shooting it. I did slug the barrel...
I sure wish they would bring back the 225 grain ballistic tip in .358…along with a 180 and 200 grain version! They took them off the the market with the .375 260 grain ballistic tip. That .375 version was one mean round on whitetail in my 375 RUM! Still have one loose 260 grainer left. I’ve...
I decide to try a 90 grain ballistic tip on a deer. Shot quite a bobcat and many coyote with them and then switched to 70 grain versions. I had some doe tags to try out some of the old 90 grainers I had loaded up and stored away for decades. I used a Remington 600 with a 18.5" barrel. The load...
