Hodgdons lists 26.5 grains as max for the 50 grain Speer soft point, not the Barnes. 26.5 grains is over max for the Barnes especially when seated too close to the lands as you have. As the other...

I don't think I have ever seen a .223 shoot that badly. My first thought is that something is loose or the scope is shot. Further your projectiles are too close to the lands. Barnes recommends a bare...

Greetings AWBates, Here are my current loads for the .308 and .303 that work well for me. For the .308 I have been loading the Norma 150 grain semi pointed projectiles for hunting since the early...

Greetings AWBates, I wouldn't discount the Lee Loader kit too quickly. I load most of my .303 ammunition using a Lee Loader to neck size the cases. There are a couple of things that I would be...
