    Moa Hunter liked post by Pommy On thread : Trying something, Eric Cortina method of load development
    It's a very clear way to approach load development. One thing I would say when doing your seating depth test is to remember an important piece of context of his videos: he's shooting Bergers. He's...

    Moa Hunter liked post by ZQLewis On thread : Insight / Discussion RE magnum calibres for mountain rifle
    OK back to it. You asked why not the CM. The only benefit in the 6mm or 6.5 CM in a short action is that they come standard from the factory with a faster twist barrel than the older 243 and 260....

    I have tried 2 methods that sounded similar. Both were complete disasters. The Eric Cantona method was just a kick in the face and the Ford Cortina method proved to be totally under powered.:D

    https://i.ibb.co/Lzyp2X7/Screen-Shot353.jpg (https://ibb.co/Lzyp2X7) The 56.5gr load looks good. Low SD, low ES but would be nice if speed would have been closer to the loads on both sides....

    Moa Hunter liked post by dannyb On thread : Trying something, Eric Cortina method of load development
    Yup Cortina states any load can be tuned by changing seating depth and shows targets shot showing where the nodes begin, peak and taper off. He also states that there may be multiple seating depth...

    I once loaded 100gr NBT's in my 260, had them going 3300 fps from the 20" model 7. Took them to Stewart Island for my first ever crack at whitetail. I ended up shooting two whitetail yearlings...

    90gr TNT or 90gr Nosler Varmageddons with 2206H, BM8208 or 2208 but you will use twice as much powder as the .223rem and the bullets are twice the price too. Faster bullets and more fast burning...

    So I'm trying something different. I have been watching Eric Cortina's vids on YouTube reference "chasing the lands" and how it's a really inaccurate method of working up a load. So for those that...
