In my experience the .308 based cartridges like it a little faster. Im reloading norma 203b for my .243 and 7-08. This is the same as rl15. I pulled the load data from the norma website.

While i personally wouldnt try to push the 30-06 to 800 yards, thats your choice. I would look at a 300 mag of some sort. For a 30 cal bullet that will get it done from 50 to long distance on whitetail, i would look at the nosler ballistic tip or accubond. You wont need a bonded bullet at long...

A few things i found when using my fart. If i use hot water, i tighten the cap, let it sit a few min, then re tighten. In additon, if your soap is fizzy in any way, leave the cap off until the soap dissolves, then tighten. i also have the add on screen to pour out the water to keep the pins...

Im unfamiliar with a case gauge and how its supposed to work, but If your worried that the brass is too long after resizing them, i would trim and save yourself the worry.

thats exactly where i ended up and im glad i did. I got to try a whole lot of new powders and i have had excellent results with a few. They have become my go to powders.

New for me this year is an m77 Hawkeye in 264 mag. Im toting 120 barnes ttsx over 61 grains of 7828ssc. I have a provisional load of 140 partitions over 58 of 7828. Its provisional because i just got my hands on some ramshot magnum and i havent tried it out yet.

I’ve had them shoot fairly accurately. Not match grade or anything, but good enough for hunting. I shot them from my 264 mag and thats waaaay to fast for them. The bullets simply explode on the hide. I then loaded them in my 6.5 swede and had close to the same results. I have most of a box in my...

I had the chargemaster lite, but it crapped out after 4 months. I replaced it with the hornady version and it seems to be working well for me.

I load 150 grain accubonds for deer in my 06. Have never had any trouble putting a deer down.

Theres always that hammer thing...... I bought a hornady puller and some different collets and i thought they were expensive at the time, but i hate inertia pulling with the hammer thing. I’ve used the Hornady puller more times than i can count. Its a good investment.

I have a bag of new winchester nickle plated in 280. Pm if your interested. I also have a fl die set.

Thats way too heavy a barnes for deer. It will penetrate, but thats about all. Even driven hard, theyre not gonna meet enough resistance in a deer to expand very much. Thats more a heavy bodied critter bullet. If your set on the x bullet, go light, like 130 grn, and push them 2900+ If you want...

Here is the load data from the latest hodgdon manual

I ran into that with federal and their load data on 175 grn edge tlr for the 300 win mag. Their advertised coal was a good bit over saami. I contacted them and they said it is correct. So much for using those ones. They wont fit my magazine at that length.

Size, inspect, trim, then prime.

I have a boyds thumbhole on a custom savage 30-06 that i put together about 5 years ago. It has served me well and i am happy with it.

I dont know that they are gonna come down anytime soon. These sellers have discovered that folks will pay more for the products that they want.

Dont discount norma upr for 165 and lighter, mpr for heavier. I have had excellent results from both.

Keep an eye on the coal that a particular book lists for that load. Often those loads are shorter than saami spec. I believe this adds some ability to increase bullet length without increasing case pressure.

Or u could look at them before u put them in the press. As i fill my cases, i stack em in a loading block. Then the last step is to double check to make sure they are all charged before i go to the press. I just hold the block under a light to see down inside the cases.
