It's a hammer up close as the stag on the weekend found out.
Well we worked on that load in the 300 WSM yesterday between hunts and ran some rounds through my other Chrono and got different results from the other one. The loads were travelling at 3112 fps in...
Checked the chrono out today. Ran some known velocity loads from my 223, 22 250, and 7 mm mag and all were pretty close to what velocity I had previously got. It appears to be reading ok . We might...
My 300 Win Mag with 74 grs of RL 26 runs the 200 gr ELDX at 2900 fps which I thought was pretty good. Must run a few of those through the chrono to see if they are still around that speed.
I have them loaded at 2.960 in or 74 mm. That is interesting what you have come up with, I very much doubt the loads are running at 70 - 80 000 psi as the cases wouldn't be looking like they are and...
No I haven't, My other nephew has just got a Tikka 7mm Mag and we are going to try 162 gr eldx using RL26 , according to Alliant 69.1 grs was max for that bullet. Hope that bullet shoots OK as mine...
What powder were you using?
It is compressed but when the powder is in the case there is a bit of space, it's not up the neck probably mid shoulder in the case.
24 inch
That's what my nephew has been reading also. These figures are in a 24 inch barrel which makes me wonder a bit.
There is a slight crater but the primers look good not flattened out to edges, my 300 Rum has bigger craters than these and that is good no heavy bolt lift etc.122952122953122954
I send some through in a few minutes
The people that know seem to think that the RL 26 is a very good magnum powder and if this all pans out it will be so. I still want to see how the longer dialed shots go but the chrono appears to be...
Well this is an interesting one. My nephew just got a Rem 700 300WSM and we have been doing a bit of load development with different bullets and powder. The rifle is a good shooter with most combo's...
