Anyone have a recommendation for this with IMR 4350? My friend just bought a Kimber in 243 win but can't find a load with IMR 4350.
Thanks

I went to shot a ladder yesterday and decided to shot an old round to check my scope before shooting a ladder test. My first 2 shots were 6 inches higher than where they should have been. The velocity on my chrono was in line with what I had recorded previously so I chalked it up to the scope...
How do you guys determine what load to start with when shooting a ladder? I am planning to load some 7mm Rem mag with 150 gr etips and Ramshot Magnum. The tech at Ramshot gave me a starting load of 66 grains to a max of 73.2 grains. I am thinking about starting at 3 grains below max and coming...
I hunt with 150 grain 7mm Etips but they are kind of pricey. After missing a deer at 260 yards yesterday, I realize that I need more practice at longer distances. Is the 150 ballistic tip a good option for the practice bullet, can I use the same powder charge and expect a close poi to the etip...
What is the reason for not allowing bottleneck cartridges in many midwestern states? More importantly, why don't hunters in those states fight to change the regulations?

I finally got my dies, bullets and brass to load for my 7mm Rem Mag. I have some Ramshot Hunter I would like to try but I am not sure where the max charge should be with the E-tips.
Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Has anyone shot anything with the Etips beyond 500yds. I am thinking about trying them in my 7mm RM but saw the minimum velocity is listed at 1800 fps. According to some ballistic calculators the 150 gr would reach that around 450 yds. What are your thoughts?
Pop,
Does your quickload program have info on the Hornady .308 flextip bullet for 30-30 win. The bullet weight is 160 grains. I want to find a load using Varget. The Hornady site has loads for similar powders but not Varget.
Thanks
Chris
How well do these bullets hold together on deer? Also does the coating limit the copper fouling? My rifle barrel fouls quickly even with using Tubb's Final Finish and JB bore compound. Also would this bullet stay together on Elk?
