Well, I just received my rifles for testing tomorrow--a 300 RUM for break-in and generation of ballistics data with a Huskemaw scope, a 375 Ruger for load development, and a 460 Weatherby for loading and testing. Should be an interesting day. The 300 RUM shouldn't take too much work, as I completed ten rounds last week with it on break-in. I am hoping that the 375 will go fairly quickly. The owner wants to use 270 grain Barnes TSX. I'll likely focus on IMR4007SSC and H380 for tomorrow. The 460 is not so critical, but I'd like to get it out of the way so that owner can have it back fairly quickly. It'll give me something to do this evening, in any case. Hopefully, I'll be able to do some work on my own rifles. I have a 300 WSM that has not been broken in yet, and I still have some loads with 140 grain PTs for my 270 WSM that I want to focus on, and 110 grain ABs for my 257 Bob. It would be nice to see that data tomorrow. I won't need to hurry home as my wife is going to a dental convention tomorrow, so I can take my time. It doesn't get dark until eight, now.
