Yes my 50 Beowulf loves LilGun....

I have a .50 Beowulf SBR and with the 400 gr bullet, sitting on a bench is not much fun. Standing can shoot all day. Shooting position determines how much recoil I am willing to deal with.

I have a tuner and you start with it screwed in all the way. Then start turning it out 3 notches at a time. Go out at least 1 full turn and see where your best groups are, then fine tune from there.

Not sure exactly what he is talking about but I think I like it.

Yes I have purchased there before. Has been awhile though.

Found that Retumbo worked best for me with heavy's, works best with mag primers, fed 215's preferred.

Dammit...

Last I checked this is a free country. If you want to pay $150 a brick that is good for you. Personally I'm not going to pay that so when I run out I run out. Just making sure I have my hunting ammo set up and will wait to shoot the others when prices go down. Do not blame others for what they...

Question then. As it sits right now my OCW is at 56.5 with the velocity of 2950. Should I re evaluate and start over for the OCW? As it is I had some of my brass that I threw out because the primer pockets were loose most likely form those 57gr and above charges. I really do not want to burn the...

I agree with you totally. When I did the initial loading with the A-Tip's I only went as high at 56.5. When I got the Berger data and started shooting their 153's and starting off at Min of 57gr and not finding any pressure signs until 62gr where I stopped. So looking at this I figured that I...

Well at least we know they are not conservative on 6.5 PRC. I have used there book for my 264 win mag and 270 with no issues, but again that was from the book.

I was at .045 of lands. Started at .020. Long skinny bullets seem to like jump better but I see what you are saying and that does make sense.

Using Labradar.

Nope same primers and bullet lots were the same too. I did find this issue with two different brand bullets same weight and same issue. When I had the Issue with the Hornady 153 A-tips I cautiously loaded up Berger 153's and found pressure signs at 57gr exactly the same as the Hornady bullets...
