    30-06 Recommendations

    Lots of choices obviously but one not as widely noticed is the Franchi Momentum. Checks every box and comes in a 6.5lbs. I have an original version that's a very good shooter and the newer models are even nicer. Only downside is they're 1-11 twist but you can run the 180 class bullets no...

    300WSM Yes! Yes! Yes!

    I run Lapua or Peterson in all my rifles and this (300WSM) was the first time using ADG and I'm a little disappointed. During load development, anything that I ran on the warmer side but not what I would consider stiff loads, the primer pockets loosened up significantly more than I would have...

    300WSM Yes! Yes! Yes!

    Outstanding. Peterson now says late 2024 for thier 300 WSM so if this is available prior to that then Lapua it is.

    Howa 1500 308 accuracy issue

    My original 1500 20" HB shot 185 Berger Juggernauts extremely well in front of VV N540. It was sending rainbows out to 1000 (2535fps) but was very consistent. I had it cut down to 16.5" and wanted to run something lighter and went through almost 10 bullet powder combinations before finding...

    300 wsm and 180 hammer bullets

    Getting ready to load the 163 HHTs for my new 300wsm this weekend. Hopefully my scope will show up next week and I'll start putting them down range.

    Announcing the New Hammer HHT

    Just ordered some 163HHTs for a new 300wsm build. Reading through a good bit of previous posts, it sounds like the HHTs will be similar to HH load data as opposed to AH load data. If that's the case I recall a recommendation not to run the AHs compressed but is a mildly compressed load okay with...

    300 wsm 166 or 181 hammer hunter

    May I ask what powder you're running?

    Green horn here, what are the biggest things youve learned from reloading good and bad?

    Check everything at least twice during the process. This will save mistakes like dropping powder without primers in the case, seating a bullet without a powder charge, using the wrong powder, seating bullets with die set for the wrong projectile, etc. I've done all except the wrong powder but...

    The 450 Bushmaster Hammer

    Anyone get a chance to load and shoot the 221gr Hammers yet? Really thinking about getting a bolt gun in 450 BM and if the Hammers run well that might just push me over the edge.
