26 Nosler???
When a thing starts life as a lie, don't expect much from it. Nosler tells us that it has more velocity at 400 yards, than the 260 does at the muzzle. A quick glance at Nosler's reloading manual shows that to be B.S. Now compare the 260 with the same new magic bullet..... Try a thing...- Darkker

Gunsmithing Pressure Sensitivity?
There is a lot more than "the barrel" that ads to things. First thing is first, what is "pressure"? IF, and this is a BIG ASSumption, IF a company ONLY built brass by the metals handbook formula. Cartridge brass has a tensile strength of about 70,000psi, so when you notice expansion, guess where...- Darkker

Am I reading something wrong? Data for 6.5 Creedmoor and H4350
"Too low" is rarely an issue if you follow any book. That said, remember that Hodgdon won't give any specs on "their" powder...

300 WSM w/ 130 gr Barnes TTSX? Need load data help

Hello from the dry side of Washington
Have enjoyed the info for a while now, so I figured I should join up. Have been shooting my 308 past 1k for a few years now, starting to work on my groups at a mile. Not awesome, but working on it. Cheers- Darkker
