What did you load or shoot today?

[Skip]

I go out at dawn to get some good use out of my laser sight on a 380

Welcome to the forum!
Let us know how that works for ya!

 

[Cat-Herder]

Good shooting, Cat!

Thanks! I love my .357s....I could shoot them all day, every day!

 

[hps]

100 .45cal 230gr, 5.4 Greendot

 

[djl02]

I've been working on loading some 69 gr. SMK with 26.0gr of varget. Next ,i'll be setting up for some 55gr. Sierra gamekings. Not sure on load yet.

Anyone else used these bullets and have a good place to start with varget? Sierra gameking bullets

dj, I use that weight but not that make and my load for it isn't with Varget BUT, the other load is one of my all time favorites for my DPMS 20" heavy barrel A3-AR. It has a 1:9" twist and that load is a tack driver in my firearm!

Sorry I can't help with the other though!

 

[TGUNTER]

358 Enterkin Mag. 300 Weatherby blown out to 35 caliber with a different shoulder angle. Loaded with 76 grains of 4064 and 225gr Nosler partitions gets 3000 fps. Not too bad. I am going to try the Accubond next.

Have to look that cartridge up. Are they deer legal here? That would be a stomper fo' sho'!

I shoot the 225gr Accubond in a .358/25 WSSM Encore. I got the barrel from Just Hunt in Wabash and they are really nice folks to deal with. The twist rate is a bit slow, 1:14" so you have to run those puppies above 2500fps to get them to stabilize. Once you do though, they are a sub MOA bullet for sure!

Broom_jm turned me on to Nosler's new Accubond, the 200gr last week and I have some ordered. Can't wait to get them!

Got any pictures of that round?

I like 25.5gr Varget under my 69 Sierra's. Actually use 26 with my 60gr V-max, so 26 might not be a bad starting place for your 55 game kings.



As for the post topic, I shot some of my first .300 Blackout loads today. Missed my mark with the 208's as I was 300FPS above target velocity, but had great resuts with some 125gr Nosler Hollow Points. 2500FPS and they were down right explosive againts milk jugs and pop cans full of water.

 

[Slow Hand]

200 rounds of subsonic 147gr 9mm. Now if the ATF would approve my stamp!

 

[mike8170]

Slow day, 100 .357 mags. I wish shot a few though.

 

[billybob44]

.45acp.

100 rounds of Speer 200gr. JHP
100 rounds of Hornady 185 XTP

Both loaded over 9.5 to 10.0gr of HS-6 for around 950-1000fps.
W-W LP primed in Federal+W-W Nickle cases
Their kind of pretty--HOPE they shoot??? Bill.

I shot about 250 rounds of one of my older loads today ... 9 mm 147 gr TRN from Rainier with 5.4 gr of Accurate #5 ... I chrono'd them a while ago at ~950 fps (power factor ~140) ... That's a nice accurate load but I have since switched to Berry's 124 gr for my 9 mm IDPA loads (With 6gr. A#5 for 1050 fps/130 PF). Berry's seems to have much less variance in the chrono'd velocities than loads with Rainier's.

 

[bronson3304]

i loaded 400 55g 223 tonight

 

[mike8170]

My oldest with "her" 686. I also tested some loads with it. Too bad we shot the target up, because it was smoking accurate. 130 grain LWSC's over 4.5 grain of Tightgroup with a CCI 550 primer. Going to load a few hundred of them this week.

 

[ghitch75]

just shot 125 45ACP'S and 60 45AR'S.....200 22LR......loaded 50 22 Hornets last night...

 

[mike8170]

GREAT DAY to put rounds downrange

 

[Dr.Midnight]

I had family visit today, so I didn't get any shooting done or any loads worked up. I did, however, get about 750 mixed rounds of 38 special and 357 deprimed and resized.

 

[ZbornacSVT]

Loaded 6 rounds of 308 until I found a burr in my primer tube.......grrr.....

So I switched to small primers and loaded 300rds of 9mm and set up a toolhead for 40sw.
