    favorite powder for 45-70 modern loads?

    I use RL-7 in my 45-70, .450 Marlin, and .444 Marlin. I like the Lehigh wide flat nose dangerous game bullets, as they work very well in all three guns. Very accurate loads and devastating on game. I use 46.5 grains of RL-7 with the 380 grain Lehigh bullet in the 45-70 and .450 Marlin. Stout...

    Best compromise for 243 and 3006

    Superformance works well in both calibers also.

    best powder for 300 win mag and 180grn bullets

    RamShot Hunter is my go to powder for both of my 300 WM’s. It is very accurate, clean, and on the upper scale of velocity. Since I can’t get RL26 anywhere anymore, Hunter has been a very close second.

    Kaboom 💥 Today 😟

    I had that very same thing happen to me a couple of months ago. M-14, .308 using Fiocci brass. Blew the magazine out through the bottom of the receiver, damaged the bolt and cracked the stock lengthwise. Turns out it was a bad brass casing. Like you, I was very fortunate that I was not injured...
