jtoews80 I have to agree with YoteSmoker 6.5 would be great I just would build a 6.5 RSAUM just me you know its the air down south off you. Hope your enjoying the weather up there it's going to change. Best Alan

Thanks jmad_81 that's the same twist as or close to the 1:9.125 in my sons Rem. VTR. Was thinking the twist was a little fast for the55gr. and would have to use the 70gr. bt but I think we'll give the 55's a try. have you tried any of the Hornady V-max. Best Alan

jmad_81 May I ask what twist in the Savage. Best Alan

What die is he using may be over working the neck hope i stated that right. Is it just the one case. Best Alan

30-338 witch of the Wyatt's mags. are most going for the MBE-4 or CFE-5 My smith would like to try one there harder to get up here Wyatt had a license issue but sure that's been taken care of so any suggestion a big help. Thanks Alan

Have you tried seating less then 2.86 My son's 700 shoots 150bts at COL of 2.860 at .030 off the rifling's but his OAL to the rifling's is only 2.890 with 150gr. BTs. Best Alan ; PS. I would have on problem seating deeper or adding a shim as a pressure point at the end of the stock just to try.

Seems like every one is getting guns out a ready for them there varmints Now I'm looking had at H414 (W760) it will or look like it will work in the 300WSM and 300RSAUM just in case the 243 doesn't. Many using the good old H414. Thanks Alan. PS> if this 243 thing works out I'll have to get one .

Sorry doulbe post. Alan

4350 seems to be be coming out on top I think I'll try it in the H type and give some RS Big Game a try to as soon as the weather warms a bit. Loading for my eldest son he picked up this 243 in a Rem. 700 VTR it seems to like Win. factory 80s & 100s so hoping the 70s will be a good fit.The Rem...

Thanks guy's JD338 IMR 4895 is a good old stand by the load sounds good, 30-338 I've been using H4350 in some other rifles may try working a load up with it have to find a starting load .the Ramshot I may try is Big Game has a burn rate right around RL15. Thanks for now Alan

I need help with a powder for this combo. Any powder that usually works. Have been thinking of trying something in the Ramshot line this time just not sure. Thanks Alan

JD338 if it was the firing pin spring would the bolt lift not stay the same it did get stiffer with the 180s. Factory loads I will try ones I get to a city to pick some up not available close. Thanks Alan.

Desert primers look fine. New Ced chrono Monday hopefully and chamber seems smooth to my eye but the local smith will be home from hunt trip Monday to. And I only have a stiff bolt lift the cases extract no problem. Thanks Alan

H4895 and with some of the rounds the bolt lift seemed a little heavy but with such a mild load thought it was just me. So got...
