[QUOTE="CasperTheMedic, post: 2547591, member: 119008"] I do load my own. Got a stupidly good deal on 600 pieces of once fired factory Hornady brass. Test loads for the camo boys heading to afghan etc. Everyone I have spoken to said that Hornady is too soft and gives stuck cases. 400 rounds downrange & not one even slightly hard to extract. 250gr Hornady BTHP #33361 88.1gr H4831SC for a nice solid 2855.8fps Ogive 2.962" COL 3.625" Case Length 2.714" ES 14fps SD 6.53 100yrd 0.43" / 0.39MOA 360yrd zero 1.80" / 0.48MOA Can NOT find the projectiles anymore. Have 100 in the box. Probably going to switch to the Lapua 250gr HPBT Scenars. I have heard good things about them. [/QUOTE]
