I have been using empty plastic JIF peanut butter jars for years. see thru, recycle and if I drop one ...no glass to clean up.

Another option is to use a Coleman mattress pump that runs on "D" cells. Some flexible plastic tubing and you can pump air from breach to muzzle. Get them at Walmart. Works for me on hot days.

In late 60's, early 70's, I shot bullseye against the 4th AMU at the old Caddo rifle & Pistol range just outside of Shreveport, La. They, 4th AMU, would leave excess 45 ammo and all the expended...

When I had mine built on a Rem 600 mag action, my smith suggested a 2nd recoil lug under the barrel. Then he glass bedded both recoil lugs...never had a problem with any stock splitting. Stock was a...

abunaitoo,
I've had one for many years. When setting up, the Pact techs advised to keep the wires in contact with the ground and do not tie the leads together but keep them separate. Otherwise false...

You might try 49 gr of 4198 under a Speer 400 gr soft nose. Took moose with it and it grouped s holes touching at 100 yds. This was out of a Rem 600 re built .

Thanks for the replies. Think I'll start at 24 gr and work up.

I recently picked up 5 lbs of WC844 from one of my local gun shops. My understanding is this a surplus version of H335. Can this be used as a direct replacement for the H335 ?

The load I have been...

You might also try Hornet Triggers in Florida. I have 3 of them; very good triggers. They are simple to install.

Thanks for the info guys.

I have an 8# jug of WC 820, Lot # 47320that is labeled to use Acc # 9 data. I no longer load for 357 or 30 carbine so I was wondering if anyone had used this powder in 308 Win with 180 to 210 gr...

Larry, Thanks for keeping me on my toes. You are right, after rechecking my data I found it was 34 gr not 43. I guess at 72 I am a little cross-eyed.

Hope this helps. I am using 43 gr IMR 4895 under a 200 gr Lyman 311335 GC cast of 3 to 1 WW & lino. Win LR primers, Federal brass, and 2.860 OAL. This is fired in a Rem 700VS 308 w/ 26" bull bbl....
