Here is the load I developed with Bear Creek Bullets sized .447". After this group I noticed the front scope base needed a little more tension. I suspect that is why this group is so large....

It has been a while, however I finally made it out to the range.
The target shows a 100 Yard group.
Sierra Sports Master 300gr sized down to .446"

-60gr
Remington 9...
Incase anyone is still paying attention to this thread, here is another range report. I haven’t had much free time lately and finally was able to sneak away quickly to shoot a 10 Shot group.
Once again thank you very much! I will let you know how the field tests turn out once I have a free day to get to the range!
Great thank you very much!
I just purchased QL hoping it arrives from Germany quick so I can stop bugging you!
Hopefully my last request,
With the subsonic loads it looks like the fill ratio...
500gr J words showed up they are 1.355” long.
I have lots of powders to choose from more than what was listed earlier. Pistol shotgun and rifle powder, however I only have 50 projectiles to work...

I have ZERO interest in getting a 400gr projectile up to 2200fps. I am not a speed addict, slow and...

I am also getting some 500gr J words from Hawk soon. Once they arrive and I can get the length for you do you think you could do me another run on your QL software? For subsonic as well...
I am currently using two types of brass:
1) RCC custom brass
- empty weight
-254gr
- water weight
- 84.5gr
2) various Magnum brass with the belts removed and...

Not sure what happened with shots #1 and #4. Most likely it was me.

Range report. Seems like I’m getting things dialed in. Thank you to everyone with the Quick Load Data!
For J words I have been staging down .458” rounds.
Several steps in an ol reliable RCBS Rock Chucker.

.446”
This rifle was pieced together and this round was resurrected from the history books.
I have long been obsessed with the 43 Mauser (11.15x60R) and the 1871 as well as the 71/84 rifles. I stumbled...
