    30-378 Weatherby - IMR7828

    Hello, Haven't seen any load data for this caliber so I thought I'd post what I've been working so far and maybe get some additional contributions. I've been out only a couple of times due to lack of range options here in upper WI (Shiocton under major revamping, Machickanee closed due to...

    Reload Data 30-378

    Well, first time on the range w/ this rifle. 30-378 WeatherBy Accumark w/ a Vortex PST 4x16-50 FFP scope. Since load data is scarse and limited, I started w/ 93 grns of IMR7828 SSC and loaded up to 96 grains by .5 grain increments using Norma brass, 210 Federal primers and 208 BTHP Hornady...

    LR-308 Trigger Upgrade?

    I just came off the range yesterday and put 9 rounds in 1.5" at 100 with each 3 round group having a hole in hole. Moved out to 200 and my group went to 5"s.
