Painless load development (mine)

[Formidilosus]

MRC was rebarreled with an ACE 18” Tikka T3 lite contour, in 6cm.




2 rounds in the dirt to check function, then 6 different bullets with H4350. Max book powder charge, bullets seated to boat tail at neck shoulder junction and checked to make sure the projectile isn’t touching lands…




















Then trued at 960 yards with the 95gr TMK at 3,000 fps.

Either I missed something being out of cell service past few days... or you chopped an inch off something on the back of an old 3-9... OR THATS ONE OF THE NEW GOT DAM MOFO SWFA CHICKENS?!?!

It’s a 10x SWFA HD.

He's trying to distract you from the Rhodesian camo bag....

EDIT: When you got the S2H store and click on the jellyfish back, that option appears in the color menu as the page loads, then disappears....

Shout out to this thread and the folks who provided valuable info. With this thread's help, I took on my first reloading task. Followed the process with the equipment sourced/had. Checked off a personal goal for 2024 and hope to take an elk in 2025 with this round.

300 WSM. 63.5 gr RL16. Sub MOA @ 100 and Sub MOA @ 525(shown below). Velocity of 2993. Factory Christensen Traverse chamber.

how’d it do? Did you get any improvement over last few weeks? I was looking at harrels last night after reading this again as the CM lite isn’t exactly quick…

I haven't messed with it much beyond loading 100 rds with Leverevolution which was pleasantly fast and it shot well.

Right, wrong, or indifferent - I doubt i'll mess with h4895 and larger stick powders using the thrower for a while.
