Thread: 500 BPE load advice

@norsk

I just put the first card wad in to let me compress the powder down a little with a 1/2" drift punch
And the top card was just because I was having some fun.

Yes I know I could rip into a bigger load but its all a learning curve and I'm just firing it and looking at the cases and seeing what they are telling me.
I'm off to see John this afternoon and I expect he will have some die blanks there and advise me what to do to make a sizer for the necks
They only need a little bit of a tweak to hold the bullets again and the cases are only about 3 to 4mm off fully chambering.

I'm picking somewhere around 90 to 100 grains will be where I find the limit of my appetite for punishment.
Then I will load up the 5 cases I have and make a big hole in a deer
