[QUOTE="Marine sniper, post: 282475, member: 4768"] I finally got the 30-378 together. Hall G single shot 33 in. Pac-Nor 3/3 land and grooves 10 twist. .333 neck. NF 5.5 x 20. Jewell trigger. [IMG]http://www.fitnesssolutionshb.com/photos/30-3784.JPG[/IMG] I have never loaded a 30-378 before. I hope I can get the HAT 210's to shoot. I have two boxes of the 180's that I will start with.
