POP, This is off the subject. You seem to be well respected on this board and I want to pick you brain a bit. My oldest son, 17, is highly dyslexic and to get him to try his hardest in the public school he's in, I told him I'd take him on the hunting trip of his choice. It will most likely be...

Thanks again guys. I plan on going to the range in the next few days and will let you know how it works and what recipe works best. I truly enjoy this board much more over the other boards I've posted on. Thanks and keep up the good work, Tpepper

What's your recipe for the RE-7? That's the powder I'm going to use. Thanks for the replies, very much appreciated. GOD Bless.

I've recently aquired this rifle in excelent condition and I'm wanting to work up some loads using the 125 b.t. My questions is the o.a.l. According to my measurements, my o.a.l. is 2.65 and all the data I've seen show a max of 2.6. I'm pretty sure these are all for the Savage 99 rifle, but this...

Thanks again guys. I'm going to work on the load using Varget since I have plenty of that on hand. I'll post results in the future. Also, he's giving me an old Weaver k4 scope that's on it for the reloading I'm doing for him. He's buying a new scope for it. It's the post type reticle and I think...

you guy's are quick. I thank you for the replies. I was thinking along the lines of 2500 fps with a 125 grain bullet. Is the B.T. tough enough for deer? I've heard stories but never tried them myself, I'm more of a Partition man myself. I would think with this moderate velocity they should...

My good friend recently aquired an old Springfield 840 rifle in excellent shape chambered for 30-30. He's been shooting flat nose bullets with it and I mentioned reloading a spitzer type to see what it would do. Does anyone have any loads cooked up for a 24" barrell? He's tired of shooting his 7...

Thank you Val, I was pretty sure you could use most any 150grn info just wasn't sure with Nosler bullets. How do the Noslers perform on game if you hunt? Thanks, GOD Bless, Tim

I'm currently looking for reload info on this rifle with any Nosler bullets. I mainly hunt deer, hogs and varmints with my son which I load a light load for. Right now I'm getting very good target results with 44grns of IMR 4320 and Sierra 165grn BTSP bullets, I'm just not a firm believer in...
