This afternoon I built the 130g TTSX dummies for Daughter's Ruger Hawkeye .308 as well as my Ruger Scout. The Scout has a slightly shorter (.005") leade.

To get the case mouth in the middle of a full diameter portion of the bullet shank (instead of in a groove), I gave a .120" jump. That is a lot of jump but it makes for one load usable in both rifles.

Now to build some loads with Varget and see how they do at the range.

If they work out, I may well use my Scout and the 130g TTSX for antelope hunting.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
