    30 sherman magnum

    Yes Rich, longer version. I haven’t shot the 215s much as it likes the 225s better. No, I don’t shoot these at max either( 85 H1000 at 3090) it’s happy at 83 H1000 at 3010, or 84 at 3050 and have settled on the 83 load for now.

    30 sherman magnum

    I maxed out with 215s at 86.5 H1000. 87 blew a primer at 3206. 83 RL23 overpressured at 3223. 82 RL23 ran 3198. So I think with your 28” tube you will surpass these speeds. Both these powders shoot pretty well.

    Forming 375 Ruger brass from 8x68s cases

    Good info Paul. I only bought one 20 pack of Norma at same time as RWS back last summer. They measured fairly close and water volumes on sample cases were similar however the Norma did vary a little more on the few I measured that way. I did not weigh and sort every case. Also noted that a few...

    300 Norma experience,data & info needed

    I’m not at all familiar with the 300 Norma, however if the advertised H2O of 103 is correct I would think H1000 would get you there in a 26” tube with the 225s. I just tried 85 h1000 with the 225s in a 98.6 capacity case and ran 3080s out of a 24”+ barrel. Might try it and see how it likes it...

    Well we’ll see how it likes it. I was hoping to have some data in a week or so but it turns out the smith needed a small tool he didn’t have on the shelf so it’s going to be a few weeks. I’ll be in touch with what we come up with. I think we’ll throat for the 285 ELDMs. The

    Forming 375 Ruger brass from 8x68s cases

    Using a powder similar to that phorwath used and the case lube I was able to keep a case of at least 2.580 consistently. So yes it seems good. I haven’t shot that enough since to get a feel of numbers of loading but hit on 84.5 of N570 with the 225 ELDMs at approx 3100 depending on conditions...
