Well I shot both loads Sunday. 25yds off a rest. The 2400 load was 1250fps and had a 3” 6 shot group. The H110 load was 1225fps and a 3.5” group. It was 91° out the H110 had a little bit of sticky...

I’m hoping for no broken wrist tomorrow

Have you ever had a day when you should’ve never sat down at the bench?
Yesterday evening I went to load up a few test rounds, I powdered unprimed cases with ball powder, what a mess. I fixed...
I got some 190gr hunter supply WFN bullets yesterday. Going to see what I can do with them in my 4” GP100 357mag. I think I’m going to start with 2400 and H110. ...
After this weekend I’ll let you know if it’s sweet or not. Ha! Just kidding. It’s been a great rifle so far. Hoping to get the 300gr PRVI RN feeding and load developed. Then I can move on to the next...
Very well put

I finally got some shooting done so now I have some projects to continue and rounds to load. I took my 35 Remington, 45/70, 375 Whelen, 9.3x74R, 284 Win, and 7.5x55 to the range yesterday and...
I was able to go shoot yesterday. With the bullet .030” off the lands, rounds 1,2,3 almost feed and round 4 (the last round) fed perfectly. Next outing I will try .040” off the lands. I didn’t quite...
The 22-243 always intrigued me back in my prairie doggin days. I haven’t been to shoot prairie dogs in 10 years now, so I’ve kinda gotten away from varmint calibers and am focusing on the big boys. ...
Now I just need a day with sub 100° temps. Ive got so much stuff loaded up that I need to try for so many rifles. I can’t even remember half of them.

Have you had any luck on your quest with the 375 socom?

My 35 Whelen is in a Remington 7600 and kicks like a mule. The 375 is in a hefty bolt action and is really quite manageable.

Got a few test loads made up for the 375 Whelen Improved today. Hornady 35 Whelen Brass. R-P 9 1/2 primer. PRVI 300gr RNSP. And Winchester Staball Match powder.

I started load development for my 375 Whelen Improved and the 300gr PRVI RNSP with BigGame powder. Velocity was good accuracy OK, but it would not feed reliably from the magazine. I need a shorter...
Doing a little test. Last hunting season I worked up a load in 9.3x74R with new Hornady brass, R-P 9 1/2 primers, PPU 285gr RN, and a healthy dose of H4350. The load shot 1/2” groups at 100 yards and...
You sure have batted a 1000 with everything that has come down the pike.
The first primer shortage I ever dealt with was when Clinton got elected. I learned my lesson then. I have never been...
Oh wow!!! That is outstanding at 600. Can’t wait to see what it does at 1000.

That’s a smoking deal.

That makes sense to me. What you saying is exactly where my mind was taking me with it.

That’s pretty cool. So my next question, excuse my ignorance, do you load the 180gr (113gr) bullet with 180gr data because of its size and length, or 115gr data because of weight?

With the bigger cases, a pound and a half of powder gets gobbled up pretty quickly

A few weeks ago I loaded up 400+ 165gr Rainier HP’s with 7.3gr Autocomp. 1.250”. 1126fps. These will be for plinking/practice as they are soft shooting and cycle reliably.
Whenever I get some...
I wish I still had my Herco, I really like that powder
