Ordered a new Howa Superlite with 20” barrel in 7-08. Since it’s a 9.5” twist, and will be 5.5-5.75 pds with scope thinking I ll use 120 and 139/140 gr bullets to help offset some recoil.
Dr Mike or one of you fine fellas, would you mind running some QL s for me with 120 prohunter and 139 Hor...

Gentlemen, would someone be so kind to run me a QL on the following parameters:
223 Rem
60K max psi
80 gr Eldm
CCI450
VV 550 powder
2.500 oal
22” barrel
Thank you so much. I know VV550 is quite slow burning but since it’s a double base powder and dense it might prove useful with heavy bullets...
Would someone mind running a QL for a 6 ARC and 90 gr TGK and 95 gr TMK?
Here’s specifics on latest development / components:
6 ARC - bolt gun (62000 psi max)
22” barrel
2.260” oal on both bullets
Varget powder
CFE 223 powder
Seems like the 90-95 gr bullets offer a pretty good velocity bonus...
Would appreciate if one of you QL gurus would run me a projection based on the following.
223 Rem
CFE223 powder
62,000 max psi (5.56 SAAMI)
75 gr Eldm
2.470” OAL
24” barrel, 9 twist
Appreciate the help!

Anyone got a 6 ARC in a bolt gun? Interested in loads ( powders, bullets) you ve worked with, velocities, barrel length and cartridge OAL s.
I m committed to finding / building a rifle as I ve already bought loaded ammo ( couldn’t find brass and wanted correct headstamp), have secured dies and...
Been running R26 in my 240 WB with lots of case capacity remaining. Wondered what R33 might do and how much I could get to with 100% fill. Looks like slightly north of 60 grains.
Anyway, would someone be so kind to run me a QL on the following data? I m thinking this exercise might be worth...
Would someone mind running a QL for a 257 Weatherby with following data:

I know both of you guys load/shoot the 6.5-300 Bee… would one of you mind measuring a factory or a hand loaded neck with a bullet seated so I can use that dimension in building/sizing some brass from 300 Bee cases. I know Saami shows .295 as maximum but wondering what an actual measurement is...
Looked under bullet tests but didn’t find any tests/comparisons of the 110 gr 25 cal Gamechangers vs 110 AB and 115 BT. Specifically I ve always shot the Noslers in my 26” barreled 257 Weatherby both running at 3400 FPS +/- and curious if anyone has done any work with the GC as a comparison in...

Dr Mike... I ve got a unique situation where a QL prediction could be of great help. Here’s short summary. Wanting to use D Tubbs Final Finish bullets in my new 221 Fireball factory barrel. Have had great luck with David’s product in past. Catch is they re only coating the 77 Sierra MK in 224...
Anyone tried R33 in 240 or 257 WB with heavy bullets? I ve had good luck with R26 but friend just did some testing with R33 in 6-280 AI wildcat and getting great velocity, accuracy and 95-100% case fill.
Thx for any experiences.
Anyone been shooting a 6 CM with 105 gr range of bullets in the 2800-2900 fps range with good accuracy? Plan to build new rifle/cartridge off my Rem700 SA in either 6 Dasher or 6 CM. It's a floorplate gun in a McMillan stock so worried about Dasher feeding good.
