yeah i cant wait to see what they do..... my gun builder says that powder with 35 gr bergers is the hot ticket so ill try them as soon as i get my hands on some.
 
Hope you get awesome groups! The bullets look to be seated very deep. ???
 
The photo makes them look funny. They mic out spot on both in case and oal. The lil 32gr bullets really are tiny
 
Took a run in the rain to let a few of the reloads fly. 9 shots at 100 yards as fast as I could recover and squeeze. Conditions were light rain with mild wind off the bipods no bench .This reloading stuff is easy :). Wonder what she will do with the bergers and sand bags

That is pretty darn good. Did you have a chrony with you?
 
No didn't want to set it up in the rain. :)
 
Been sick with the flu sooooo i Got my bench set up a lil better and some light right over it :) made up 5 loads in both 35 gr fb and 40 gr hpbt to test out. The big batch is supposed to be the load for my gun. Can't wait to see.

I'm not seeing it. What am I missing?

I wonder how may dogs will be dispatched with that lot of ammo? ;D
 
Yup good eye a lil chunk came off the neck. That's what I get for loading on cold meds
