nope
The spr 18 remington and the Handi 243 cal. have to different chambers
setting back the shoulders to resit in the chamber are not the same spec:
I need to resize using the full length die and adjust it to set it back to 2.775
on the remington
The H@R the shoulder needs to go to 2.675
The one problem I ran into with the 243 cal. single shots are to pay special attention to resizing the shoulder.I find single shot need full length dies to re-chamber otherwise I find a .001 gap between the barrel and breech face.
I use a 9MM case and set it on top of the shoulder and mic:
I...
I load it for a Remington SPR18 single shot
My Handi 243 cal shoot the same load and bullet excellent but I reduce the charge to 40.5 grains of IMR 4350
I also found the H@R will shhot the hornady 100 gr.SPBT very good with IMR 4064 but it won't hold a group with 4350
I use IMR 4350 43.0 grain but it is a hot load with the Noslers BT C.O.A.L. 2.700

I drop the charge to 40.9 and get the same group
I did find a load they shoots outsatnding,I am over the max: charge by 1.5 grains 43.0 grains of IMR 4350 I see no sign of excess pressure .I was loading using the reloading info and by mistake I fliped the next page to the 244 cal. that showed 43.0 grains
I hope it will do it job on whitetails...
I don't think it will get any better but I do think I went over the max: charge.
I was reading some info but can't seem to find it again on this load maybe someone can tell me if I am O.K.
The above shot from the bench to night at 75 yards
noslers Bt 95 grain
IMR 4350 43.0 grains
COAL 2.700
next...
95 gr Ballistic Tip
I like to ask is this bullet have better results in boiler room hits and how well will it hold up if the front shoulder is hit?
I am pushing them around the 2850 mark FPS
I am shooting a Remington single shot SPR 18 barrel they has a 1 in 9 1/4" twist but it will keyhole 105 grain speer bullet
The gun is made in Russia hey this gun is like the old timex watch takes a licking and keeps on ticking
Gun has a hand forge spirel barrel shoots dam good trigger needs...
I said it before this barrel hates slow burning powder and the bullet needs a running start will not shoot well 20,30,40,50 thou off the lands.
Top group from the bench with IMR3031 2.650 that round a little low was more like my fault
I shot another 5 rounds with 40.0 IMR 4350 group shot high...
thank you
I used 40.0 grains IMR 4350 at 2.722 COAL.
I tested a bullet and the single action will close on 2.775
2.722 will be shy abot 50 thou: or should I seat the bullet a little deeper?
I have had excellent results with sierra 85 grain HPBT bullet 35.9 grains
rifle will print a clover leaf group COAL 2.650.
I tried speer 105 grain with IMR 4831 was more like a shot gun pattern
I have some IMR 4350 wonder what grains I can try?
The nosler reloading form home page tech: from...
I like to ask what it the C.O.A.L. using the 95 grain BT in the 243 cal.
I did load up some the other day but I was not pleased with the way they shot on paper at the 100 yd target. I did use IMR 3031 35.0 grains
I think off the top of my head 2.685
