Thank you Larry, I don’t have a lot of this powder but with the way powder is if nothing else when I try it maybe I’ll learn something from it to add it to the list of possible’s if nothing else can...

In a rifle load running a gas checked bullet how hard of lead do you need if you run “any powder upto a velocity of 2000 fps? I have been looking at a cheap source of lead from a company the BHN in...

Has anyone loaded cast bullets with IMR-4831 in the 308 win? I have a couple pounds left over from when I had a 270 and would like to use it up, I have a 177gr 185gr bullet currently to use, I do...

I’d love to get my hands on some H4895 to test out in my 308, 303

I do actually and I wish Lyman would update it with some of the “new” powders that we have to choose from these days, especially when we are left buying what’s available vs what we really want. If I...

When I get home from taking my pregnant wife to the ER I will send you a more detailed PM to what I am looking for,

I wanted to add something for thought to this one, I have been watching a guy try to replicate SWISS Black powder and he has found that it makes a great deal of difference in the species of wood but...

Very interesting!

I have to ask will this powder be corrosive though?

I’ll answer question #1 with something out of an old reloading manual about 30-40 krag, the nominal bore diameter is .308 how ever bores from .309 to .3125 are commonly found.

I have messured a...

My guess from reading is that maroon is variation allowed on the color red, NATO calls for red not orange for its tracers, http://www.cartrology.com/cartridges/1544 there is example of a German...

It’s a tracer, they call out blue for incendiary rounds, tracers can be orange, red,maroon brown, purple ect, as there is red, green, dim, and IR tracers as far as I know
I seen some of these for...

Tracer by the looks of them, could be a IR tracer and not a visible one perhaps

Personally they should have improved the old 308 round, they could have done something like a slight up pressure of it with propellant made to get the best velocity out of a lighter bullet. Thus...

Read up on the British specs for 303 British head space, the SAAMI specs are tight which is why just about all US made 303 brass has rims that are to thin and create head space issues, ppu makes...

This one is kinda loaded because it depends on what AR-15 we are talking about, I have learned over the years not all AR-15’s are nice easy recoiling guns I actually had one that had more dam felt...

I have been looking into the NOE mold 205gr .316 one, thinking it would be fat enough to fill the groves on all my rifles, but still unsure where I want to go load wise I’ve heard 4227 loaded to...

Do any of you guys load for 303 a lot? Have you guys found any particular load/bullet combos that have performed well across a few rifles? I have a few in my collection?

They probably used WWI era Russian ammo which I think is about a 148gr flat or open base bullet most likely simular to the Tula made 7.62x54R. They may of also used heavy ball too.. you would need to...

I did watch that guys video about the 71gr of powder kinda nuts it worked as well as it did, from seeing what he had for results I almost think the powder pellet the British used was made from 4F.
...

I just seen both that guys videos got like 55 and then 71.5gr of powder, think he needs a 200gr bullet though.

So I’ve heard black powder is better at bumping up bullets to grove diameter then smoakless powder is.. my question is would BP bump a .308 jacketed bullet into a .303 bore if it was a open base...

Have any of you tried to load, shoot BP in the 303, I know the original loading was 70gr of powder with a 200gr bullet, how ever most people can only get around 50gr in a case. I have read of a few...

Hard to say because of the Ukraine and Israel thing going on both are being supplied with 5.56, I am told lake city canceled all commercial ammo sales
