    284 Winchester?

    Have a look at my rifle. A 284 on a short action sacrifices nothing with bullets at or below a 162gr A-max. .284 Win Tactical Hunter Kyle

    Heavy Carbon on necks

    Have a look at my response here (I'm 284win): .338 LM smoked necks - Sniper's Hide Forums It's a common problem with the 338LM and Retumbo. Retumbo is a very slow burning powder. If you read my reponse to that thread, more powder solved the problem, but I think you might be getting near the...

    " node "

    Put a little more simply, a "node" is where your rifle, bullet, and powder charge produces a nice little group while developing a load. To explain this would require a huge discussion on barrel harmonics that I won't get into. Typically, us as reloaders are concerned with two "nodes". You'll...
