    Reloading and Expectations

    I was poking around on the the site this morning and stumbled on the article below by Chris Way. It isn't posted in Reloading but its content is directly applicable to reloading and expectations of what is needed in developing a load. It's based on actual shooting results and can help new...

    Hodgdon 308 and 223 Load Data-Ignore

    I just noticed that Hodgdon has changed the 308 and 223 data for velocity on the Reloading Data Center. The velocities are now reported for 15" barrels. Oops, pistol data.

    Load Development Method N135 and 52 Berger Target 223

    I normally use Dan Newberry’s OCW method and have been happy with the results. I recently tried a test but unfortunately had a 25 mph crosswind and the results were inconclusive. I have read where some advocate picking a charge and varying seating depth to find a load. I think this might be a...

    I need intervention!

    I love my 308 Rem 700! 99% of my shooting is 300 yds or less, static from a bench. Sixty-eight year old body doesn't want to shoot prone. Yesterday a friend forced me to shoot his 6.5 RPR. He's 4" shorter than than me so nothing fit right. Felt like I was bent up like a pretzel. First two...

    223 and 8208 XBR Load Opinion

    I am looking for some experienced guidance. I have a load that I worked up using Newberry's OCW for a 223 Rem R700 Varmint which is quite accurate at 100 and 200 yds. Because I am limited to 300yds I have never chronographed the load. The load is 53 gr SMK with 25.5 grains 8208XBR, Lapua...
