All sounding very reasonable, I guess we're considering different things. What I'm looking for is powder performance and efficacy, while most are chasing velosity. Powders like blue dot, 4227, and #9 all of which I use give their best combustion numbers in that 30-35kpsi range. So for me it's...
Your load was in tune for the current conditions using the run of components you had. When anything changes the tune changes. Use any data you had like velosity to retune your load. If your specs on ammo are good deep clean the rifle, check for tightness and try again. I've worked with two...
Why are we reducing pmax to 30 from 35kpsi. We're already running the 35k handicap from the 40k cip and earlier American loads.... I don't load 40k much, but some powders don't even turn on 30k and below. Blue dot being one.
50 a pound is vhit prices for 1 and 300 series. Imr is 75 a pound when I quit looking because it's not worth 50 percent more.... I feel shifting your buying habits to support companies not shooting prices to the moon is the best message. I don't feel like vhit is any lesser quality so I'm not...
I'd sure like to try an Ackley at some point. I just got into my first not so wild cat cartridge with 6x45. The rumors I've herd is 30-30 gets the best performance enhancement. Don't really need more from that cartridge, but I have plenty of brass to play with. The 280ai seems very nice, but...
I actually go the other direction because I feel the longer neck I have the more options it gives me for seating depth and hopefully being able to stay north of the neck shoulder junction. I trim every time and try to stay right at Sammi max.
