    I have come upon a good supply of pulled .30 AP bullets from LC 53 ammo. I am wondering if anybody has any load data on these bullets loaded into new commercial brass.

    338Lapua Magnum - Barnes Bullets

    Hi everyone, I'm looking at trying 225grn TTSX from Barnes as a hunting load. My local dealer advised me to load the projectiles at least 50 Thou off the lands. While this gets the length of the cartridge down to a length that will fit in the magazine, I'm concerned that a jump that...

    Rebated Boat Tail Bullets

    It seems to me that most match bullets are BT bullets. However, I've noticed that some Lapua bullets are rebated BT. There was a resent thread about making your own match bullets and the company that makes the dies for the bullets seems to only offer rebated BT dies for their match bullets...

    Dimpled Bullets

    Interesting article on dimpled bullets on the 6mmBR Dailey Bulletin. Anyone know long these will stay in the prototype stage, and when they’ll be available from Berger? Seems they pick up 80 fps in .308 and close to 150fps in .338 caliber.

    Load Interchangeability of .308 155-gr Bullets?

    I'm finding a lot of firsthand reports on 155-gr Lapuas and the occasional A-Max, and I've just finished up a box of Nosler 155s and have access to some Berger 155.5s.... Except for the A-Max, anyone see differences in safe max loads between the various 155s? With both 4064 and IMR 4895, my...

    Feed Ramp marking bullets

    It seems my AICS mag causes my bullets to slam into the feeding ramp and scrape up the ramp and leave copper jacket bits behind on the ramp. With help from a separate thread I was able to adjust my AICS 5rd mag to not scrape the feed ramp as much. However, after extracting the bullet (carefully)...
