Thank you DrMike!

Could someone please run powder comparison in QL for the following? Thank you! 22-250 50gr VMax 50gr BT 222 Rem 52gr SMK

So I ended up with two scopes. One is a Burris FFII 3-9x40 which I intended to use on the 22WMR, but also picked up a Tasco Titan World Class Plus 3-9x44. This one is made in Taiwan and might end up putting it on the 22 and using the Burris on my 30-06.

I might have found a good candidate. A near new Burris FFII 3-9x40 for a nice price.

That is what I was wondering. Would a scope meant for center fires give me parallax issues at say 50yds?

Good evening I’m looking for scope suggestions for my new to me Marlin XT-22.

Just picked up a nice old BSA CF2 in 222 and the last time I loaded for the triple deuce was close to 40yrs ago. My load was the Sierra 52gr MK over BL-C(2). Thinking of trying it again, but hear H322 is a better choice. What do you think?

I have always gone with the BT and 58-59grs of H4831. It just seems to work. Tried and proven is the way to go 👍

Is there such a thing as a control load for the 270? I’m thinking a 130gr bullet over H4831? The question is, what bullet to start with. The BT is always a favourite in just about any cartridge.

Looking for die set. No Lee please. I’m in Canada :)

Actually, it’s this one. https://www.frankfordarsenal.com/reloading-tools/presses-and-tools/reloading-presses/f-1-single-stage-press/1122194.html

I have some Sierra’s and 180BT to try. My previous 8’s liked the 220 over RL25.

Has anyone purchased one of these? If so, what’s your opinion of it?

Thanks guys. Pretty nice looking for a 40+ yr old rifle. Looking forward to testing it out.

Just picked this beauty up. This will be my fourth big 8 and the nicest looking one yet.

Thanks, will give that a try.

This might be a strange question but thought I’d ask. Just picked up an older Ohaus 10-10 scale and it stinks of cigarette smoke. What would be a good way to clean it? I think even the plastic cover has turned a darker colour from the smoke.

Well, added some Sierra 220gr bullets to my stash. Just need to find some powder now. That’s going to be the challenge. My previous 8’s liked this bullet over RL25. The search is on!

That’s funny. I’m on my fourth too lol. Can’t seen to get way from it.

Has anyone tried 180gr BT in the big 8? Just wondering what powders you used. Was thinking RL22 or RL25.
