Worked on some coyote medicine for my coyote problem tonight. I have not seen a fawn all season, but have seen plenty of coyote sign. The neighbor also said there have been so many coyotes that he keeps his dog put up.

What did you do today in the reloading room?
- Thread starter Deerhunter
- Start date
Loaded up about 25 30-30 rounds to get rid of some misc bullets and the last of a container of IMR4350. Needed some ammo to check the zero on my Dad's old Marlin.
Got a package from Dillon yesterday, so today I'm setting up another caliber conversion kit so I don't have to keep robbing a parts when I switch to 300blk. Now I have a dedicated setup for 9mm, 10mm, 45acp, 6.8spc, 300blk, 223 and a spare toolhead if I decide to add another caliber. All my bolt and lever guns still get loaded single stage.
Full length sized about 400 pcs of brass.
Looks like you're good to go buddy. Glad it worked so well!
I really like my Howa in 6,5 Grendel. The new 90 Cx bullet interests me but I've not messed with any yet.
The 100 ttsx looks great here

Decided to try something different in my custom 280AI:
Peterson brass
VV N570
195gr Berger EOL
Fed 215m
I have used N570 successfully in several cartridges and curious how it will do in the 280AI with my designed reamer.
Picture is cartridge OAL in my chamber seated .030" off lands.

I loaded some 350 legend with 165 FTX over 26 gr H110. That's been a dependable, low cost hog load for me so just adding to the stash.
Started prepping some brass tonight for my 6.5x47 that has been sitting in the safe neglected. I hear these things can be accurate.
That is the same load I use in my 350.
Varget and Berger 140's are so boringly accurate, it's like a cheat code. Add low ES/SD's to the mix and it doesn't get much better.

Working on my new Browning 7mm PRC loads. Tried IMR 4831 and VihtaVuori N570 so far. Hornady 175 ELDX and 180 ELDM, and some 175 gr Speer Grand Slam bullets. I wasn't sure if the N570 would work given the X Bolt has a 20 inch barrel. 5 shot group with the ELDX was 1.09 inches. It likes going fast so I'm gonna go up a whole grain and see if it gets better.

N560 or 565 my be better for that short barrel but everything I'm seeing says that H1000 will make her sing. That's what I'm starting with. I'll be posting updates in a thread in the rifle forum.
N570 will still perform well in a 20" barrel. Am I seeing it correctly, your load is 65gr N570 with a 175gr bullet?

Im running 67.7 gr of mag pro and 175gr eldx getting 2870 average fps out of my begara hmr and getting sub 1/2 in groups at 100 h1000 best i could get was 1 1/2 from min to max
Need to try 560 or 565 and see but i think i found my load. This is out of a 24 in bbl
H1000 seems to be the go to powder for magnums to find an accurate round. It's not always the fastest, but I have never not been able to find a good load with it.

Quack, I ran your particulars 175 ELDX, 3.330" COAL, 20"bbl, and came up with 74gr to 74.5gr N570. Case is full but not compressed and pressure is low at 54kpsi.
