This is for a Hornady ELD-X 178 grain bullet. Their manual lists the lowest charge at 58 grains up to 67.9. The load in question was for 64.0 grains. It was the most accurate out of all of my test loads. I will be going up this weekend. Thanks, Grub

Actually, the starting load for the bullet is 58 grains, I just couldn’t fit it all in the screenshot so this charge is in the middle range of the recommendations. I am going to jump up to 64.4 and go up in half grain increments up to the max load.

These were cleaned prior to the photo. I use a home brew for my case lube which consists of lanolin and rubbing alcohol. I checked a few other cases by heavily sprayI guess them and and running them back through the dies and no further denting was visible…however, they were already resized. I am...

Here is the load data from the Hornady App:

I appreciate all the comments. The data I am using is from the Hornady guide for that particular bullet. Those loads are coming out at 2925 ft per second already so they are a pretty fast bullet. It is happening at the chamber, not resizing. I am going to go up a bit on the charge and check...

Good afternoon, I have been reloading for a few years and have not had any issues like I am seeing in my new gun. I am looking for a little expert advice. I am loading 64 grains of H4350 in my Bergara 300 Win Mag shooting 178 grain Hornady ELDX with a Federal 215 Primer. In the 3rd reload with...

I’m not quite sure what your comment about sitting on a lazyboy is supposed to mean. I of course would love to own all Swarovski binos and scopes, I can’t afford them. I have good binos, not the best. I want a spotting scope…good, not the best to help me at the range and hunting. Even if I...

I’m sure it does, but the extra 3x is not going to help me that much at the range where I’m sighting in my rifle at long range, which is part of my plan for the scope.

I appreciate that link, looks like a great deal. I do have a really nice set of 12 poet bible already. I really need more magnification though. Thanks, Grub

I may take you on that offer if I can‘t find something I love. Regards, Grub

I will sure try… Thanks, Grub

Does this come with a lifetime transferable warranty? I am not familiar with their policy. Thanks, Grub

I really appreciate all the feedback that you have provided me. It has given me more education than I possibly could have imagined. Truly, I am at a point in my life where I make a good living And have some money to spend. I am 45 years old and have just started to buy into out west hunting and...

These pics are incredible, which spotter did you use to take these photos?

These are both more than I can afford to spend at this time. thanks,
