    25/08 IMP liked post by earplay On thread : Priming tool
    I found the WR primers a pain to seat (in Win brass). Ended up uniforming all pockets, and adjusting priming tool (Hornady) to seat a little deeper than usual to try get them in. Apparently shell...

    Not quite real world, but GRT suggests around 2600 or so at max charge (SF with 180 ELDM).

    Micky Duck liked post by earplay On thread : Kaimai Deer and Wallows – Year-Round Use?
    I hunted it on and off for about 20 years so a few hours in there :), but yes 20m might be being generous. I think it depends a lot on where you go. The regen stuff is pretty nasty, but there are...

    I think it's good advice to focus more on proximity to water (during summer), and keep an eye on wind. Certain sections of Kaimai's have very little terrain (i.e. a plateau), so it can help to focus...

    F Majeur liked post by earplay On thread : CDS/Chrono Question
    As already mentioned - box velocity minus 150fps (assuming 25fps/inch loss) puts you at 2529. Add a few fps for the suppressor, and you're sitting in line with your chrono data, which should be...

    Yes that works well, and is also what I've done. I've started keeping targets during load development for reference, so just liked having a consistent template. It's interesting how that "1/2 moa...

    After spending a bit more time at the range with load development lately, I've been through a few different targets. While they all work, I found that those which offer a more precise aim point seem...

    Trout liked post by earplay On thread : 100m target
    Gave the Tentman target a go at range this afternoon - worked well. Decided to try a 10 shot group at 200m (after watching too many Hornady podcasts), to see how this load actually groups. Around a...
