charge

Selling my White Oak Armament National Match A2 Pre-Ban Upper receiver and BCG. This upper has 1/4 MOA pinned rear sight, Hooded rear aperture, .052 front sight, free floating handguards, and the lead weights for the front. The barrel is a Krieger, 1-7 twist, with a 223 Wylde chamber. The...

I am developing a new load and am unsure whether to run a ladder test on charge weight first, or seating depth first. I usually end up alternating iteratively between the two for a few tests since each influences the other, probably wasting time and rounds, something that I cannot afford to do...

I am new to reloading and now that I have a couple hundred rds through the barrel I want to try to find what it really likes. I have a Remington 700 5R, .308, 24", 1:11.25 twist. If I load to the standard 2.80 OAL I am jumping .155 with SMK 175's and .139 with Scenar 155's. So, my question...

TO clarify my question, I'm dropping a "minimum recommended" powder charge as starting point, But my measured velocities are almost at the maximum. I;m trimming cases to .008 under "sierra" manual. Should I be concerned about bullet depth (OAL)? I'm not sure where to look. Thanks

I read some where you can use a straw to improve the charge master can some one explain?

Just looking for a conformation on the viable charge range for 208's with Retumbo? I have one instance of data off of the Hide but want some more conformation before I load up some for a velocity match with my best H1000 load. From Berger 210 gr VLD (69.5 - 77.2 gr Retumbo) ??I thought...

Just picked up my 6.5 from American Precision (Patriot Arms)... Read all the articles on the round but need to know where to start the powder charge to work up a load. Thanks! Jim

Got my Patriot Arms Rem. 700 .308 with a 22 inch barrel and just mounted my USO SN3 TPAL. Now it's time to develope a load. I plan on using the TAC powder I have on hand as it meters well. What do you all suggest for starting and ending charge weights to push 155 gr. Lapua Scenars and 175 gr...

Quick question. I reduced my Varget charge on a 175 SMK load by .5 grains (originally 42.5g now 42.0g) The 42.5g load shot at 2644 through a 3 screen, indoor oahler chronograph. What ammount of velocity reduction do you think I'll see with a .5 grain reduction? Any thoughts would be...

Anyone know what powder and charge weight Black Hills uses in their 308 win 168gr match rounds? My rifle likes this load but I want to load it myself. Someone help me figure this out please. Thanks

I am working on a new load for my rifle. I have selected berger 155 hunting vlds and am using r-15. After researching about loading vlds and reading the berger bulletin about them, I selected a near max powder charge of 46.0 grains, then loaded some work up single rounds in half grain...

Grafs in St. Charles Mo. has 5 1000 count 210 m primers and I saw a 1-2 chargemasters there. I got my thousand for 39 dollars Inc tax. 636-946-7468. Hope somebody needs them hope it helps someone out
