    I recently acquired some Trail Boss powder to fire form new 300 win mag brass before working up loads. Had to trade primers for it :(:(:(.Anybody familiar with how it works and particulars on steps.100% load is 26.5 grains to the base of the bullet. Jam the bullets into the lands to keep the...

    Inconsistent chrono readings on bright sunny days

    If you go with a Labradar be sure and lay out another 50 bucks for the shot trigger that attaches to your rifle.It is triggered off recoil. Without you'll have missed shots just like an inexpensive chrono. Just my observations....

    Inconsistent chrono readings on bright sunny days

    I use a pro chrono and do the black marker thing.As long as the sun isn't shining straight in the sensors it never misses a shot.Also very consistent readings on various weather days.

    130 TTSX loads for 308 win

    Guess my deal was with the changing of charge weights. I've used their old data with varget and w748 with the ttsx and worked pretty much as expected. I'll just rely on the usual pressure signs and my chronograph and go from there. Thx for the reply

    130 TTSX loads for 308 win

    I think the truth lies with the dollar. Handloaders are definitely a minority.They make piles of money on factory ammo so why cater to a small percentage of their market. Hopefully they'll live to regret it one day.

    130 TTSX loads for 308 win

    130 TTSX loads for 308 win

    You mind me asking what you found for max loads and where ? The old Barnes manual says 50.0 grains max and the latest online stuff says 46.9 max. Just trying to make sense of it all and where to start....
