Bullseye has long been a popular powder for pistol target loads but probably a bit scarce these days. I use Winchester Super Target for .38 Special, 9mm and .45 ACP. For my 10mm I use Winchester...

I seat so that the case mouth is at the top groove in your photo. I don’t load to an OAL with the cast bullets, I don’t even measure them.

Increase powder charge by 0.5 for each load. Shoot a 3 shot group working your way up, rem bering to let your barrel cool down between groups. Take note of the accuracy, you should hit a sweet spot...

Chase accuracy not speed, that's what the swede is famed for, anything over 2600 fps will be perfectly adequate for hunting out to 3-400 ydswith that bullet. I use 2206h in my m38 sporterised with...

Brand new Hornady is around $89/50 ($178/100) Norma is around $167/100. Once fired is worth 1/2 that in my book

Maybe trade them or sell and buy new.

162 is the optimum weight in 7mm mag. You don’t gain enough by going to 180gr. What you gain in BC you lose in velocity and extra recoil. To really get the advantage of 180’s you need more case size....

Hi Joe, Practice is good but you need to practice good technique. Mimms is right - it starts with the feet and whatever part of you is on the ground. Technique and specially position do vary...

Perhaps you would like to share your actual practical experience with killing animals with a 2506, rather than cherry picked numbers from the internet to suit your given position. A typical load for...

Do you really need to anneal the cases, have reloaded for 40 plus years and never annealed any of my brass. I do get split necks after a while but usually get quite a few loads from them before this...

No worries. Bill999's absolutely right and I had a similar experience getting the buggers seated. Ended up buying a Lyman 30M1 expander die which helped and used the hot glue gun trick on a spare...
