LOL! Stranded on the Island of Misfit Handloaders.

Very nice. I am going to chamber form some new Peterson brass with a reduced load of 67.5gr. N565 pushing 175 ABLRs, and then rip some at 69.7 to 70gr. I should be approaching 2930-40fps, which is fine for me.

it's rather simple as the reamer is basically self-guided.

I appreciate it! Comparing their factory loads to my handloads, it's interesting that they jump those bad boys quite a bit. I got my best accuracy at a BTO of 2.643", with average 2923fps and an ES of 4. The shortest I loaded was 2.563" BTO, and with the same charge weight, averaged 2850fps with...

Thanks!

Please tell us how they shoot. Also, could you measure the BTO? I'd be interested to know the seating depth. Thanks!

Yeah, I came to that conclusion recently.

Did you try N565?

I got the last box of 175gr ABLRs that Cabela's had a few days ago. It was on sale too!

The you can probably go with a slower powder like N570, but you'll most likely have a full case with a bit of a crunch at max pressure.

What is your barrel length? I find N565 just about perfect for a high density load with 100% powder burn for 175s out of my 22" barrel.

This one?

Do NOT waste your money on the high end GE Monogram. Although my dual fuel range has been awesome, but my 48" fridge compressor inverter fails almost every year and needs a new one. I keep a spare on hand. It has a 20 year compressor warranty, but the rest of it is only 5 years. I bought them in...
