I just found AR comp an hour away. There will be another ladder this weekend.

While AR-Comp seems like it would be the perfect powder, I don't have enough of it to make the effort valuable. So I went with H4198. Here are the results of a 5 shot ladder. I may have hit pressure at 38.5gr. I might see a faint ejector mark and I don't know any other reason besides ME for that...

The only leaves we have bigger than that are cactus palms and poison ivy... Clothing it is!

And this is the real reason to dress in layers!

If you haven't ever had to wipe your *** with a shirt tail, or sleeve, or sock, are you sure your not from the city? ;)

I just ordered some 97gr absolute hammers to try in my 7YO son's 16" 6.5 man bun. I've scoured the internet for load data and called Hammer (Brian?). I dont have any of the powders I've seen listed except CFE223, which I loath. And Tac-x is not currently available locally. My question is...

Since some meth heads decided they needed my CC 4x4 Tundra, and they don't make it with a 5.7 any more, I bought a '23 CC 4x4 Chevy 1500 with the 3.0 Duramax last Aug or Sept. I didnt think Id ever say it, but I should have made the switch a couple years ago. 2 weeks ago it was customized by a...
