LOTS of good info in here.
Articles on:
224 Valkyrie write up and data, a lot of the CFE223 loads directly match the test rounds I just loaded last weekend (while I got rained out) so I’m pumped to try them. It also confirmed my suspicions on 8208XBR: it’s a quicker powder so leave it for the 60gr and lighter bullets for speed. I got some decent heavy loads (77gr) but they were ridiculously slow. Tiny groups at 100 that fell apart at 300yds
6mm and 6.5 CM
45ACP & Long Colt
Black Powder shotshells
Wildcat 30 Rem AR
6.5x54 Mannlicher (my wife’s grandad has a few of these rifles in this caliber up to a 9.5x57mm beast)
Muzzle loader substitute powders
LOAD DATA
Lots of updated data; some quick comparisons against the usual suspects showed some tweaks even against 2-3yo manuals
If anyone wants anything specific just tag me and ask
