We're going to be in Unit 77, DIY. It'll be my fourth season in Colorado (first was archery in Oregon), but my wife's first. I've hunted...

Where are you hunting elk, guided or on your own? If you're shooting them at 200 on it grab your basic 30-30 or 243 and rock on:)...

Just got my first custom rifle back from the gunsmith and got my first few shots through it, couldn't be happier with everything so far...

My load of H4350 with a 168 TTSX has been outstanding on elk and mule deer. Velocity has been 3125-3150 with most animals not taking...

Thanks for all the help. For now I’ll be using H4350. I got to the same speed as H4831sc without any hints of pressure. I’m running out...

I loved RL26 when I had a barrel chambered in 7WSM. It just got too hard to find where I was and that was well before the pandemic...

Looks like I misspoke in my earlier post. If you want velocity, RL26 is it. My case is an improved case but it screams with RL26.

Those slower powders are great. May not be able to get enough in the case for the lighter bullets though.

I was thinking those might be a little slow for the 190s but I’m willing to try. I have four pounds of H1000 and about 10 of MagPro...

NOPE !!! Same thing for every short mag or anything based off the 30/06 casing..tried about everything possible for myself and different...

Yep, there is nothing wrong with it, especially out of an 18" barrel.

H4831 was okay. I was really hoping that it was THE ONE. I couldn't get above 2700fps, in a 18" barrel, without heavy bolt lift with...

VVs have some excellent powders. I have a few to try, but I was playing with powders I already have open.

N550 is what I settled on for 300 Mega, 208 LRHT. Tried all the powders Feenix mentioned, plus N555. N550 got me to my desired...
