    300 Norma Mag

    I used N570 exclusively for a 300 Norma and heavy bullets. One day I was getting great ES numbers and then one day I wasn't and this was from the same 8lb container I was using, let alone switching containers or lots. No change in the load process whatsoever. Tried a different container and...

    300 Norma Mag

    Bottom line is all powders have the potential to perform differently at any given time and what people are spilling on the internet just adds to the confusion, most often you aren't getting anything but the what that individual deems to be the most important details, whether intentional or not...

    300 Norma Mag

    I can tell you this much. I ran Lapua brass, Federal 215M and 245 Bergers with 87.0 grs of N570 and never had any pressure issues. The starting load of 83.5 with the 220 and N570 seems useable. Can't speak for other powders or combinations.

    To a degree yes, but you have to work up the load and check for pressure. The closer you get to the lands, the more pressure increases.

    .308 Winchester

    It's usually never the 5th shot. Usually 2nd or 3rd and then all remaining shots cluster back into the group.

    I shoot a lot of 5 shot groups with 4 touching and then one a half to three quarters of an inch away from the group. If I ever figure out how to tune that out, I'll let you know.

    Fart wrong and it will have an effect on an M1A. One day it will shoot great groups and the next day it won't, very frustrating rifle. Yet I can't live without one. A lot of the armorers from the 70's and 80's had some very interesting things to say about the rifles and what their shooting...

    .308 Winchester

    Oh I know all about them. It was the first bullet I tried in the rifle in January with H4895 and it shot lights out, even jumping .117 at mag length, better than any M1A I've ever had, and was still shooting great up until about a month ago with that bullet until I changed lots of powder and...

    I've actually wanted to upgrade for a while since I have SAC's headspace comparators, but after seeing the disparity between the diameter measurements, I'm just going to switch everything over.

    Sorry, I misread you post. Thought you you were talking about seating them out when you said shoot them long.

    I'm pretty restricted on the OAL because of the magazine. 2.830 is about max and I have no interest in single feeding.

    Glad you brought that up, going to order some from SAC now that I'm thinking about it.

    That 2.135 is for a factory 168 ELD load? I never had much luck with the 168 ELD in an M1A.

    Does anyone have a CBO measurement of a 175 Sierra at a 2.800 OAL? I have a chamber set up for 168 Sierra's at 2.200 at that OAL jumping .010 so I'm wondering how the 175 compares before I buy some.
