My dies and bullets are in, I ordered 50 pieces of brass and I can't wait to start reloading for this round. I'm going to try the XTP 240gr mag to start with and probably use ww296 because I have 4 lbs of it. I will post any results.

wildcatter wrote:HOOT, FYI.. just so ya noze.. The chamber is freebored .200". I did this for two reasons. One, was that it would accommodate any bullet profile and two, which is more important, to lower pressures. So, the only limiting factors are, magazine interior length (usually not more than 2.260" +-) and whether the bullet is in the case far enough to grab it properly and some of my loads are only in the case 3/16", so the cannelure position, is of no importance to me. See, personally, I worry about the Power Factor more than accuracy, just so long as the accuracy is more than adequate. Where as you seem to be more involved in the accuracy department, accepting the power as more than adequate as it is now. Neither one of us is wrong and only wacked-out guys like me could ever think more power is needed, from what our factory rounds give us now, but we both want ZR1 Corvettes, we're just coming at the equation from different view points..t
