Thanks, everyone!
I hear you. I currently have 4 that are dead on; .6CM, 6.5CM, 6.5x284 and 308. Once I find the right load for a gun, I leave it alone and move on to the next making sure I have at least 100 bullets with everything else that go with it. My next project is my 243AI in an 8 twist. Still have my 25.06, 6ARC, 6.5GRENDEL, 6Predator, 30.30, 25CM and 30.06 which I'm swapping barrels to work on. My GS still putting together a 260AI for me. 20 years ago I only had a shotgun, rifle and pistol. Now looking for a 3rd safe. It's addictive.I do. I have
Model 7 rechambered to 243AI just returned from the smith
Model 700 with a Lilja barrel I had spun on and looking forward to that. It's in 270 win and I have a load looking good for it.
Model 700 in 308 in a Manners stock I put together for my son.
Tikka in 270
My daughter's Ruger in 7-08
Gonna be fun working loads up for these.
Keep me posted on that 243ai ! I am looking forward to hunting with mine this fall. I have been chasing hogs the last few weeks on my property and hoping to get a load worked up in that next. Would love to shoot one with it. Mounted a Trijicon Credo on it.I hear you. I currently have 4 that are dead on; .6CM, 6.5CM, 6.5x284 and 308.

What twist is that 243AI?Keep me posted on that 243ai ! I am looking forward to hunting with mine this fall. I have been chasing hogs the last few weeks on my property and hoping to get a load worked up in that next. Would love to shoot one with it. Mounted a Trijicon Credo on it.
Thanks for the advice. Gonna load up a bunch for this 7mag now that I have a good load.
8 twistWhat twist is that 243AI?
I can't wait! Gonna start working on that one this week. Tim, those Hammers at 3600 are cookin!You'll like that 243AI. Have a 700 with an 8tw Rock Creek barrel. Have 2 hunting loads, 105 Berger around 3100 and an 80gr Hammer Hunter around 3600. It's a riot to shoot!

I wouldn't load up a "Bunch" just yet. Try 5 more in a day or two....then try 5 more in another day....the re-loading Gods can be very fickle! They can giveth and taketh right back!Keep me posted on that 243ai ! I am looking forward to hunting with mine this fall.

Yup. Verify then reverify and then verify again. If shooting the same then your gtgI wouldn't load up a "Bunch" just yet. Try 5 more in a day or two....then try 5 more in another day....the re-loading Gods can be very fickle! They can giveth and taketh right back!
That's helpful and makes sense. I have 10 more loaded. I'm going to shoot them in two groups of five this week.I wouldn't load up a "Bunch" just yet. Try 5 more in a day or two....then try 5 more in another day....the re-loading Gods can be very fickle! They can giveth and taketh right back!
