Made the decision to have my 338/06 AI reamed out to the Weatherby 338 RPM with a 4D Weatherby Freebore Reamer. I just wasn't satisfied with my overall results with either the A-Square std or the Ackley (much as I love them!) More power! and I still have my sweet handling little rifle. Oh yeah! -

Sorry it took so long to get back to you sir! I was using IMR 3031 behind it, in the standard 338/06 and it was pretty zippy! I just had my rifle rechambered to the Ackley Improved. When the smith set the barrel back a thread to cleanup the chamber/insure a crush fit for FF, it also set the... -

My SIL killed a nice 5pt Bull ,a few years back, using the HSM ammo 7mm RM/168 Berger. He had bought a used Tikka T3 Lite from a local guy because it was so lightweight. At that time, he and a friend would drop down in this huge but God-Awful deep canyon for elk. He got a pass through... -

Annealing question
I have never shot enough rounds to worry about annealing. If I get 4-5 loads before a primer pocket opens up, I'm happy. any cracked necks, etc, get the heave ho. I try to shoot two or three rifles so I still get plenty of trigger time. I've also never done any drastic case forming. I have...- RevJim

Off-season project - 7mm Rem Mag
Many rounds seem to perform better with some compression. But I too have had rifles that just did not shoot well at peak pressure. I have also just traded or sold one that aggravated me one too many times, ha. Hope all the best for you young man! -

Off-season project - 7mm Rem Mag
You can get Nosler 160 Ballistic Tips very reasonable over on Gunbroker pard. They are the Hunting type and have a heavier jacket/solid base. Years ago, I almost pulled what's left og my hair out with those VLDs! It was in a .280, and I gave up on them. I "hear" those Classics are good hunting... -

Off-season project - 7mm Rem Mag
The "only" time I ever insisted on the same Lot# was if I found an accurate factory load for the rifle I had. I would then buy as many boxes as I could, which way back then, might be 2, hopefully 5. Never worried about it for anything else. However, LR Hunters/shooters benefit by watching every... -

Off-season project - 7mm Rem Mag
Seems like I read somewhere that if you heat it until its red its too hot, so brass becomes too soft? I know there is a "paint" for the neck/shoulder or something that will turn a different color at the "right temp"?. Ever use that? Midway lists a cartridge specific case holder you put in a...
