[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 85777, member: 3733"] Well I finished my fireforming last weekend. I grew about 200 gourds in the garden 2" to 4" diameter. They make very explosive targets with the right bullet. I spent about 100 rounds in the 260AI and 243 etronx vaporizing them out to 400 yards last Sunday. Yesterday I started working up full house loads with the improved brass, basically just velocity and pressure testing. H4350 with 140amax produced a safe load at 2903fps. H4831 with 140amax kicked it up a bit to 2941fps. This was with a 3 groove 8 twist 26" Pac-nor tube. I did manage to hit 3012fps with H4831 but this charge showed extractor button flow, so I back off 1 grain of powder. Now I need to do a ladder with the h4831 load. I'm very short on time but hope to settle on a load, and work up my drops for this deer season. If not I'll have to pull out the trusty 300. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
