What cartridges are on your short list to play with?
My list is pretty short right now.
I have a .338 RCM that will fill about any need I could have in a big game rifle and I would like to work up some heavy bullet loads for it using the 270 grain A-Frame as well as a flat shooting high velocity load using 185 grain bullets.
I just got a couple of Contender carbine barrels that I need to work with. One is a 23" .30-30 and I am hoping to find a good load with the 150 Nosler Ballistic Tip. The other barrel is a .17-223 that I need to form cases for and hope to find a good 20-25 grain bullet load with it.
I also have a TC Encore .223 with 1/12 twist barrel and am working up a 40 grain load with it.
