300BlkTalk

This is the workup I have been using as my plinking / run & gun load for a few years with great success. http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg59/DarkSoulracing/300loadup.png I am switching to H110 (availability) and will start to do my workups on that as well, but this is where I am guessing Ill...

I shoot mostly 147g milsurp bullets that I get from Hitech ammo , I am going to bet they are out of stock ATM, but just google 147g M80 bullets and there are several places that carry them at usually about $100 per 1k or so. I shoot out of a 16" Wilson barrel, 1-8 twist I believe, and load to s...

To start, I swear there is a rifle in there :D When i started it, I used the Rhodesian Camo masks, but used urban colors. When it was done, obviously, it could go either way, and a friend of mine called it the polar bear gun, so it sort of stuck. I kept trying to get good pics of it, but my photogra...

For Quickload I use the PMC .308 147g FMJ-BT , dimensionally they are the closest I have found on QL.

I talked to one of the guys at accurate today and he told me everything should be GTG if I follow that chart. He said go with the 150 data as it is the closest in weight. He also mentioned that A1680 was very compatible and that they compacted it 125%? So they are loading compressed powder charge a...

Yes, Its WC680, Lot #47271 I am running SS rounds using the milsurp 147g M80 projectiles, and have been averaging in the 1850fps range, so about 75fps off of what Quickload states. Keep in mind that QL is estimates as well, so you cannot always bank on that, and of course it is always wise to use a ...

I load A1680 (well, milsurp equivalent) at 18.6g on the M80 projectiles-

Personally, I would recommend a Dillon 550, it costs more, but IMO, worth every cent. Although you do in fact need a good reloading book (I have several of the Lyman books) the load data for 300 BLK is not in them yet, I am sure it will be added in the next edition though. Also, keep in mind, if you...

Dolomite, how are you holding the upper to the tube mandrel you cut? Is it just pressed on, or being held from the back with a live center?

Just a quick bit of info, I exchanged a few PMs with the guy from AAC, and the max pressure for the 300BO is actually 64000, the same as a 5.56 cartridge, so on the printout above, it has a max pressure of 55k psi (should be 64k) so the data is actually not quite accurate in that the pressure gener...
