Well things seem to have gone a little quiet here on this subject which used to be one of the most commented on. Phil and his input on this is sorely missed, at least by me. A lot of really good...

Gordons Reloading Tool reckons you should be getting more velocity than that (2560fps, but really need actual case capacity). It predicts a shorter COAL of 2.25 would give you another 80fps or so,...

This was in April 2019. As for several years now, I go hunting in the same field, which I take as my hunting school. I say school because in it I am learning the beautiful art of stalking. And by...
