    Case fouling on shoulder/neck

    My Hawkeye 7 mag did the same thing when i was running some hardened brass though it. Fresh or annealed brass will almost certainly solve the issue.

    That is some awesome help. Thank you. I will be hunting with my young German Shorthair.

    I can hardly bring myself to say it! Ruger?

    Ive seen an early 2000's ruger 30-06 shoot wonderful groups with Sierra 150 something or others over a stiff charge of H 4350

    I can hardly bring myself to say it! Ruger?

    I have an m77 hawkeye in 7 mag that absolutely fought me to death while trying to work up a good load for it. Nothing would shoot less than 1.5 MOA. I put a cheap rifle basix trigger in it and floated the barrel, still no luck. One day i got creative and was just clowning around at the reloading...

    Load for 7mm wsm

    Thanks for the input on some loads you guys have done well with. I'm well aware of how to find a barrel twist rate. As mentioned before, I just havent had the time to sit down and do it. I used the term "slug the barrel" incorrectly. I wasnt thinking straight. As far as case prep and load...

    Load for 7mm wsm

    I recently picked up a 700 with a shilen 7mm wsm barrel on it. I dont know the twist yet as I havent found a few minutes of time to slug the barrel. Any of you have some good accurate load for yours? I hope the gun will shoot well. I tossed a random load together of IMR 4831 with a Nosler 120...

    7mm RM neck & shoulder black

    This all makes sense to me now. So if I'm a few grains over max and still need a large boost in pressure I assume that the chamber on the rifle is sloppy as heck....

    7mm RM neck & shoulder black

    I dont have my notes with me but I have tried tried Nosler 140's with 65g H4350, Nosler 120's with the same powder, Sierra 140 Pro hunters with 63g H 4350, Hornady 162 BTSP's with up to 61g H 4350. I have tried some IMR 4350 with no luck and RL 22. I would need to go back to my book to know...

    7mm RM neck & shoulder black

    Let me rephrase part of that. I am tried varying my seating depth a bit. I have only let me COL got to 3.29 I believe.

    7mm RM neck & shoulder black

    I am new to reloading this year so bear with me. I reload for a Ruger 77 Hawkeye and am struggling to get acceptable accuracy. I put a new trigger in the gun, floated the barrel, and have tried MANY bullets, powders, brass, primers, and COL's and still cannot get consistancy. I'm not trying to...
