   I understand why you might be fixating on an arbitrary bullet speed in your Swede, I've done the same thing myself but ask yourself why you REALLY need 2700 v 2600 or even 2650. If you can get fit...

   All else being equal, the chamber pressure will be the same. The barrel length doesn't change what the max load would be. Only really the velocity you will achieve. Maybe. Maybe not. But you...

   Interesting that the Hornady book and ADI are three grains different for max charges in the 162. I’d read some of gimp reloading posts as well. I’d just start 2 grains under what you...

   88gr ELD-M from my 22 creedmoor this morning. Impact velocity of around 2750fps. Went in on right side, blew three ribs apart and took out the heart. Quick dash and dead. .223 would have been the...

   You're overthinking it mate, the wee Howa .308 will be fine. We shouldn't get hung up on ft/lbs it should be what the low end in velocity for the projectile we are using is going to not be as...

   .243 would be great. Then he can down scale or up scale later depending on his taste. Although I'm a fan, .223 is not something you just pick up with a box of any old ammo and go hunting with. Takes...

   Another thought. If you've kept targets from earlier testing try super-imposing them. Our brains play funny tricks and many a time I've shot several good 3-5 shot group, yay sub MOA. However if...

    Typical Canterbury springtime weather! NW flow and rain. Some tricky winds this morning, switch left to right and back again at some, and still up to 10mph to complete drop offs. Finished with 14...
