Has anyone else have a bullet that you just could not get a good load for and then switch to a differnt bullet and the load is perfect? I have been working on a 120gr PT load for a 257 WBY for some time and have tried about every powder you can think of with no decent grouping. Then I switched...

Greg, I have been doing some messing around with the seating depth this week, and found out that it makes a HUGE differance with accuracy in my Weatherby. I have loads that went from 3" groups down to 1" just by seating the bullet deeper. Because of the Weatherby's free bore I was seating them...

Well loaded up some rounds using H1000. Here is what I ended up with. Nosler 120gr partition, 69gr of H1000, Weatherby case, fed 215M primer, 3.17" COL. grouped .8" with 3125 fps. To me the speed seemed slow. I figured I would be getting close to 3300fps, but the accuracy was good. What do you...

I am in the Air Force. I got transfered to Minot. Nothing like going from being surronded in mountains to being surrounded in prairie grass. Will be coming back to AK. I have a cabin in the Caribu Hills down by Homer and part owner on a 32' boat out od Whittier. Don't think I will make it up...

Called Nosler like you suggested. Very helpful. They gave me loads for using H1000 and for RL-22. I am going to load them up tonight and if the weather is nice shoot this weekend. Thanks again for the help. I DID learn alot of new things.

The Hornday maunual 7th edition shows for a 180 gr w/ RL-22 a starting load of 63.5gr @2500fps and a max load of 76gr @3000fps. This is using a Hornaday/Frontier case, Win WLRM primer and a COL of 3.340". Getting ready for spring bear? I just moved from Anchorage to Minot ND.

My gun has a 24" barrel with a 1-10 twist rate. Here is the process I use for making a load. I look in the loading manual for the bullet I want to load. I look at what powder I have or can get, and I will load up 5 bullets starting at the min and going up by .5gr until I reach max or if shows...

One more thing......Do you think the 100gr bullet would be better than the 120gr for long prairie shooting for antelope and deer? I was thinking the 120 because it would carry more engery down range.

I bought the gun new last year, it is a Vanguard. Here are the results I have so far with 120 gr part. H1000, 69gr, COL 3.2, 3086fps with a 2.2" group. IMR7828 67gr, COL 3.2, 3176fps, 1.7" group. Maybe I am just trying to hard to get a tack driving group. My load for 100gr Speer SPBT loaded with...

Need some help on getting a load for a 120 gr Partition. I have tried the loads out of Nosler reloading #5 with IMR7828 & AA3100 with not very good results. I have some H1000, H4350, H4831 on hand and looking for a load with on of these powders. I currently have 2 loads with 100 gr bullets are...
