My longest shot was 626 yds. on a groundhog.

Yeah, I heard that about 20 years ago too. Never got the chance to test it though.

Wow, that is smoking !

Those are some BIG prairie dogs !

Nice job. Congrats.

Great---Wow ! What I've been missing .

Hey, I'm glad to read your post because I've never fired anything over 50 grains .I was told that a 14" twist will not stabilize anything over 55 grains.

By loading them one at a time .

I have a Weatherby and can honestly tell you that whenever I see it compared to other new cartridges they use mild figures to make a point . Lately I've been using 165 trainers and have chronographed them at 3,450 fps with no pressure signs (extractor marks, cratered primers , stiff bolt etc.)...

I bought a 1917 Enfield. It shoots a .308 Norma Mag. necked down to .257 cal. I was shooting 100gr. bullets at 3,740 fps but backed off --- didn't want go burn my barrel out . It's pretty flat shooting. I'm using RL22 and 7828 . I've gotta try some of the new powders out .

I never heard of that .

I've been reloading since 1971 . Some of the bullets I have are actually over 30 years old . They work just fine .

Mama was right .Forrest Gump also said that . Great minds think alike.
