The 700LTR are shooters, I’d love one in .223. Did you get a LH in .223 or a RH?

.45 Colt with the near last of my Trail Boss and .45 Cowboy Special with Titegroup.
I mainly shoot CAS and with the TB situation, I'll use the TB in .45 Colt for my 1873 and the Cowboy Special in the SAA's, to save the TB I have left.

This one is RH. Picked it up used from a shop in QC. Bore wasn't the prettiest but it's a shooter. Not fussy. It stacks 50gr Vmax, 53gr HP and 55gr SP with 3 diff powders into tight groups
It is made by Custom Reloading llc. and I bought it off of eBay earlier this year. It is similar to the "survival reloader" that X ring makes. It works pretty good and does a nice job on the crimps. It's not super fast by any means but I only use the .410 to plug away at grouse anyways.
Thanks. I'll look into that. - dan
Time to reload. The final test on my coyote thumper is complete.
First to FL size…
Next is priming…
Charging is next…
And after seating, the finished round…
Who said you can’t load precision hunting rounds? With .001” shoulder bump, .002” neck tension, and exact seating depth on every round.
6.5CM
Nosler 90gr Varmadeddon bullets
CCI BR2 primers
Hornady cases
Varget powder 42.0gr
CBTO 2.15”
Performance: 3115fps, .390” grouping (.345moa) @100m, 1930FT-LB energy

Nice, great rifles. I can’t remember if they made a LH ltr in .223 but I’d love to get my hands on one if they did.

I loaded 100 rounds of 38S&W
158 gn lead round nose on top of 3.1 gn of Unique
Then made a work up load of 25 rounds of 38 S&W with same bullet but on top of 2.3 gn of win 231 to start , then made 25 more with a charge of 2.6 gn of win 231. I need to start looking at other powder options since I’m on my last can of Unique!

loaded up 10 rounds of 338WM for testing
Sold my last 338 WM, but just dug out a bunch of reloads I did years back. Guess I need another one. Hmm, I have a magnum Mauser and a magnum Win 70 actions sitting in the cupboard. Have to dig through the barrel of barrels and see if i have a 338 in there. - dan
Some 300 Win Mag 150 & 165 test loads for a Tikka T3X to test it out . RJ
21 rounds of 308 win with 155 Sierra match kings. 3 of each from 44 to 47 grains in 0.5 grain increments using varget. I set the COAL at 2.775, as per the Hodgdon recommendations. Hopefully I find something in the batch that shoots decent.
