OCW is what you make of it ... And you've done bloody well, so success I'd say, without shooting all that extra powder...

You'd be pretty pleased with that for a first crack, ay ?

Ha Ha cheeky bugger!! I printed that one before I got the non PDF.
The font is called 'fuck yeah!'
Yeah stoked mate. I loaded up 9 more of 51.5 grn so at least if i go for a deersie I know im in with a chance. After the 1st 3 I dropped my poi by 2MOA as it was not the height I wanted. I also moved it 1MOA left after the rest so should be about bang on for 200. Will be tested though to be sure. Just need a crony now and then I can make a droppy

Question: The crown on my rifle is now filthy with black residue, never had that issue with factory loads. Is this normal and what will get it off? Hoppers didnt.

Run a wet patch thru with this stuff on it and you will be amazed what comes out..

I use 2 wet ptaches, wet the brush and scrub it, then another wet patch. The dry ones.. Then an oily patch and a dry patch...

Some guys leave the oil in there

Good to see another reloading 'addict'.

Any .270 users tried 110gr on red deer ? Looking to load up some reduced loads for a youngster that still do the business for shooting in close and would be very interested to hear how the Sierra Pro Hunter in this weight performs at 2200-2500 ft/sec ?

At close range with the 110gn pills in .270 you will be shooting more like 3200-3400fps.

he did say at reduced loads

Yes, muzzle at 2500, impact 2500 down to say 2200 ft/sec.
