    Eldx accuracy questions

    I have not loaded any bullets for the 300prc. I did EXTENSIVE load development with my 7wsm (over 200 rds) and was about to sell the gun, but out of a miracle some rotumbo came up for sale and I found some unicorn tears about the same time (180 hybrids). Loaded them up and the same gun now...

    Eldx accuracy questions

    I have done quite a bit of load development with 175 7mm and 212 30 nosler. All I did was give up on the eldx and switch to 180 and 215 burgers and quickly found 1/2 moa. I recently purchased a 300prc and factory loads might get 1moa....maybe. I also have some custom ADG loads with 215 Hybrids...

    Shooter ballistic App vs Applied ballistics

    Question....I have used Shooter (app) for over 10 years. I understood way back then that Bryan Litz was the developer. Now I download Applied Ballistics and it appears to be an updated (less user friendly) version of Shooter. Does anyone have a preference between them? Is Bryan Litz associated...

    Magpro temperature test

    Just wanted to make an update. Did some load development last Jan/Feb and was very happy with 1/2 moa results out to 900 yrds. Loaded up 100 and forgot about the gun. Took it out Thursday and set up some milk jugs at 400, 500, and 600. First shot at 400 center punch. Second at 500 missed. 3...

    Magpro temperature test

    I was playing with 4000-MR and happy with the initial tests. So I did a temp test and was less than happy. Almost 120fps in 100 degrees of temp change. I decided to do the same test on magpro and retumbo. 3 bullets loaded near max, but proven good mode with no pressure signs. .010" jump, but...

    4000-MR experiences?

    I did a little testing. I found a load near max but appeared safe. I froze 3 rounds at 0 deg. I set 3 other rounds under my wood stove for 36 hours and measured temps several times. The rounds measured 109-113 deg over 36 hours. At the time of shooting 110 degrees was measured. 7WSM 162 ELD-X...

    4000-MR experiences?

    I have been playing with 4000-MR lately in my .243 and 7WSM. After trying several other powders my best accuracy has been with this powder. I wanted to use Rotumbo in my 7WSM, but since I havent seen any on the shelf for a long time im hoarding it for another gun. I tried Magpro, 7282SSC, and...
