thats a interesting idea on keeping the yellowjackets/flys away , I have that problem with my sept elk hunt , a spray bottle with some vinegar and water works but u need one guy shooting :D

well you do have 200 win brass now , you can buy the same 140 bullets then just copy the oal & fps if u have a chronie from the factory ammo to your reloads .. it may just shoot as good or better

I think it was like this from new , I only have about 150 rds threw it . thats why Iam trying the 175gr from the 160...... 190 seems interesting funny thing is that when I was doing some varmit loads the fb 120 shot nice

I have 7mag dies , do u set it as usual to bump it? or do u just do a FL size? I havnt seen new stw win brass here (canada) in 10yrs My other problem is my throat , max oal to load in my gun is about 3.645 BUT I dont touch the lands till 3.702 ...with a .20 (3.682)jump Iam still .37 to long !!

thanks , yah I new it was pretty loose from the measurements ,just wondering if it was real bad , my cases expand quite alot(length & width) from new brass , I seen the ring and was worried about head separation ..I have a 338wm and its fine has anyone used the body collet to resize there...

What are the 150 BT ? ttsx? lightbulb Also bring a ground cover or sheet of wood for underneath the muzzle brakes to cut down the dust

go with 150 - 175 gr for your elk hunt , there a tuff animal & very smart

Has anyone used RL25 with a 160gr ? I was wondering what its like for temp sensitivity, I test loads in 60dg but hunt in 0-, -10 or what have u used in a similar situation
