    What firearm are you using the 124gr MO bullets in at that length? at 1.125" my rounds don't come close to chambering in all 3 of my glocks.

    Missouri Bullet 9mm 124gr COAL and starting load

    Hi all, I purchased 3K 124gr round nose hi-tek coated lead bullets from Missouri Bullet. I have 3lbs of titegroup I'm hoping to use. Hodgdon lists 3.6-4.0 gr for 125gr LCN at 1.125" COAL. this is the closest published data I've been able to find so far. I was going to start at 3.6 and work...

    Distance to Lands, Barrel Shot Out?

    Follow up question, if not shot out, would you recommend loading to load data COL and forget the lands? Is there a limit on COL length? could I safely load to 2.935"? I believe I read somewhere not to seat less than bullet diameter plus boat tail length. I've only been reloading for a couple...

    Distance to Lands, Barrel Shot Out?

    I recently traded for a 1990's rem 700 VLS .308 in very good shape. I've shot a box of factory loads through it and had .6 MOA results which I was very happy with. Before starting my load development I wanted to know where the lands were. I check by removing the firing pin and ejector from...

    Long distance match

    It is a 16" DD 1:7" LW barrel. I am going to try to find some 80gr SMK and varget powder locally this weekend. I'll pick up the Bergers if i see them also. Did you purchase a single loading mag follower or do you just start them by hand in the chamber? I found a 3D printer file for single...

    Long distance match

    Thank you DoubleMag. Good advice. I'm really looking forward to this. I do reload...i have about a month before the shoot, so i will be working up a new load for heavier .223 bullets. i've really only used my AR with 55 gr loads for plinking up till now, so i am anxious to see how it shoots on...

    Long distance match

    My gun club has an upcoming long range match...20 shots in 30 minutes at 450 yards. Not long range to many of you, but it is to me. I am new to this. I own an 5.56 ar15 and a .300 wsm Winchester m70. I know the .300 would be the better choice ballistically, but I'm not sure I can shoulder 20...
