Anything weight partition is going to be statistically less consistent than basically any BT or Hornady bullet. Personally, I would take those 150gr NBT you have and kill a boat load of deer! I run 150gr Federal Powr shok and a 162gr AMAX in my slightly slower 7mm08 and have yet to worry about...
The venerable 10 brings a lot to the table and most load data is published under legal support by high paid lawyers, and thus leaves a lot of meat on the bone. This only seems to apply however to more rare or big power cartridges. I guess the 500 billion rounds of 9mm that has been loaded in...
I have a pretty successfully accurate load for 162 ELDM/SST and 175 LRAB with IMR4350. Barrel is 24" but I see no sign of unburnt powder. May be a decent starting powder that is a touch quicker than RL22.
My 45/70 loads are for my single shot NEF, but should still work well in your set up. My puff loads are 12.0 gr of Unique with a quarter sheet of SINGLE ply tp as a powder position wad behind a 405gr cast bullet. Good for 1060fps out of my handi and freight trains through both shoulders of a...
I think he was asking for powder recommendations and what to "expect" from given powders much less than he was asking for specific load data. Which even exact load data is fine as long it does not exceed current maximums established in reloading manuals. I personally have no issue sharing load...
As far as the garand load....good luck.
As far as the bolt action/hunting load.....you have a few different options. 1: Buy a muzzle brake and run full power loads.
2: build reduced loads with your normal bullet weights(150-168).
3: build a 125gr "youth load". H4895 can be reduced up to 40%...
Great responses so far, I appreciate the communication. I categorize my ammo in certain ways.
Range fodder-buy it(load) cheap and stack it deep. Because for higher speed training, you will not see the difference between .5moa and 2moa so it can feed in a variety of firearms acceptably...
So I have a philosophical question of sorts.....
If you have a developed load that works well in your particular set up and let us contend that you will never be rid of this particular set up, do you load all of the available components you have to that specific load and store properly for...
Gotcha, then yeah I would say it is safe to blame the scale and not environmental stuff. I would suggest a solid beam scale as your primary. I have used lee, RCBS and Ohaus. The 10-10 from rcbs is the best. However the 5-10 series is phenomenal. Heck for a period of time I used my Ohaus gram...
You do not have to pull them......yet. a couple things to check first. 1, do you have an air current impacting the scale? Meaning, can a volume of air impart pressure on the measuring table of the scale.
2. If 1 is yes, Does your scale have an auto zero function?
3. If 2 is no, have you...
Have purchased from them in the past, no bad experience.....however, you will be served as well going to the ammunition tab and request to buy whatever you are looking for. This usually ends up at a lower price for you and allows to continue the community. just my thoughts.
This has been the ebb and flow of guns and components for the last 3 decades. The only reason that components did not come back to almost 100% under 45 is because he only did one term.
To the point of gun regulation, he made a couple concessions that I do not approve. I.E. bumpstock ban is...
