Most rockets can travel that fast because they are in the upper atmosphere or even bordering outer space where the air is extremely thin and there is little drag force. Also, the expansion of gasses is in deed restricted to the speed of sound which is dependent on temperature amoung other...

If this looks familiar, I posted it in another online forum that several if not many of us also frequent. I finally got to the range today to try out my hunting bullets with good (not great) results. I came across these looking for a cast hunting bullet in a flat nose design and had to...

I don't shoot it, but this is what Hodgdon says: 250 gr. Hornady SP COL: 3.220" H380 57.0-59.0 gr 2300-2416 fps 41.0k-44.5 kCUP Varget 50.0-55.0 gr 2348-2486 fps 44.9k-50.0 kCUP BL-C(2) 56.0-59.0 gr 2380-2500 fps 43.0k-48.9 kCUP There are others but these are...

That's just wrong! What kind of person would put their shoulder up to something like that? Could you imagine hitting a prairie dog with it!!!

Go ahead and use the data for the 240 gr NOS JHP. I am looking at the 2004 edition currently and if you compare the two bullets with charges of Universal, you'll see that they are the same except the lead goes to a lower charge for CAS loads.

That's about 100 fps faster than Hodgdon lists for a 168 gr bullet. I know that he didn't do it with Varget as it gets quite compressed in the 308 at max loadings, but BL-C(2) will get it there with a little "over-loading"... and I am guessing at over 51,000 CUP at that. I personally have had...

One thing that I have noticed about ebay. If you put everything you want in your wish list and let it sit there for a few months, sooner or later they will give you a big break on the prices. It is like a sale just for you! I put a bunch of items in there just after Christmas and in June they...

I have always heard to do the reduce by 10% and then take another grain off for starting loads. Developing loads using Mil/surp brass isn't that big of a no-no if you have a chrono and pay attention to velocities and other signs but I don't think that I have ever gotten exactly what load...

Come on now, someone has got to have some hunting stories by now with these bullets. I hope that I'm not the first to report a deer kill this fall with 'em!

Where'd everyone go? I'm new here but been around a Ruger site for a while. I have ordered up a bunch of these thunderheads and am looking for a good recipe and any meat taking stories involving the 270 gr Penn marvels. My gun is a 7.5" NMBH, .4525" throats. I am hoping to get about 1200 fps...
