    WTB- Laminate Mossberg Patriot stock

    If anyone has a Mossberg or Boyd’s laminate S/A Patriot stock not being used give me a holler. Thinking I might replace my factory synthetic. Thanks

    Really???

    It’s only price gouging IF we make a purchase from them. I ve said no and have been finding other powder alternatives, surplus pull down, etc. Guess what, I can still shoot without being totally robbed on powder pricing. I hope others consider doing the same so the wholesalers and retailers...

    Ladder test 6 creed/108 eldms/h4350

    I d try getting 160 or so rounds it getting brass fireformed and then group/chrono again. Brand new barrels usually get an additional 50-75 fps after totally broke in. Sometimes bites guys on the hiney ….. if they pick a load before barrel totally broke in. Ask me how I know 😂 And I ve seen a...

    Retumbo and Alliant in stock at Powder Valley...

    Sure didn’t see where SEC scrutinized the consolidation of powder companies and being watchdog for consumers …. Think about that for a while regarding our gov t s true interests …. Just sayin …..

    Retumbo and Alliant in stock at Powder Valley...

    If more guys said “keep it” the top side will soften … for last 3 yrs or so no one is letting dust settle on can tops …. Shooters have started an auction atmosphere and retailers are pouring it to everyone; my sentiments anyway.

    QL Request 6 ARC

    Try some TAC or H335….. a little quicker powder might do the trick. (Unless you want a quicker burn stick powder and once again case fill might become challenging)

    Worrisome News for Reloading

    You still vote with your wallet …. I buy less these days and only if I see a fair price. Let the “crap” sit on their shelves and they ll re-adjust pricing….. if not cause they re that stubborn, lacking business savvy, etc they ll just run their business into the ground. JMHO

    6 ARC QL - 90 gr

    Fantastic !! Thx Dr Mike, very much appreciated. QL is predicting there’s quite a bit more velocity available with the lightest weight projectiles.

    LR mag primer

    Is a 260 AI, 6.5 Swede in modern action or another cartridge/rifle an option?? As someone mentioned trying to make your Accord a Corvette ( or something similar to that) usually has big compromises …. In the case of a 6.5 CM and those velocities a 4-6” l her barrel probably easiest but as you...

    QL 223 Rem CFE223

    Just in case anyone following; 25.5 grs of cfe223 did the same fps as 24 grs H4895 IN MY RIFLE. Calling them exchangeable for all practical purposes. Big temp swings most likely show H4895 preference. Thx

    QL 223 Rem CFE223

    Thx Mike!! I ve went to 25 grs with no signs of pressure and 50 fps less velocity than my 24 grs of H4895 load…. Think I can go up in .3 increments and see where I get. If no pressure and velocity gets to H4895 load I ll call it a day… they ve been grouping together currently so gives me some...

    RPM’s

    Something to ponder is shooting a heavier, higher BC bullet at a somewhat lower velocity. Drops won t change much and it could provide some “bullet blowup protection” if needed…. Just another angle…

    Those were the days!!!!

    I remember paying $8.90 for a brick of CCI250 s when Slick Willie caused us a primer shortage and I was mad because of the price gouging then …. 🤔

    Powder in Nosler Accubond Factory 180G

    More than likely NOT a canister grade of powder… the ammo makers use powders not available to handliaders the majority of time. You “might” be able to find something similar burn rate wise and type; ie: ball vs kernel, etc

    .257 Accubonds

    …and at $1.25 apiece no less…. I need to un-retire apparently … lol
