[QUOTE="roundss, post: 251572, member: 10556"] I got my hands on some Matrix bullets that Marshal sent me to try out. Here are some pics that I took today while reloading 10 of them to test. I have some Berger bullets loaded with Retumbo that I've been waiting to ty out. I got 70 gr of retumbo meassured out and loaded into the cases and attempted to seat the bullet. 70 grains of retumbo is a compressed load so I thought it would be a tight fit. Unfortunatly I could not get the bullet to a length where it would cycle through the action. So rather than really push it (and the powder) I decided to pull it and start over with H4350. So there were no problems with it seating since it was only 56.5 grains of powder but I did have to push the overall lenght back to 2.77 to get it to cycle through. So now to get out and shoot them. Here are some pics. I forgot the length and weight data at the reloading shack so I'll post that up later but I did remember to bring my camera home.
