Load details, please, if you don't mind, opiewan.

I just stuffed some 40gr Vmaxes and Varmageddons over 13gr of Lil Gun and Mule Deer's recommended CCI 450 primers. Want to see if either will equal my 11.1gr of H110 and SP primers in my Browning (in hopes the lower pressure will be easier on brass). I tried it with Remington 7 1/2s once to no avail. With the weather as it is, might be a while before I can check. I also gave my rifle its first serious cleaning with some Copper Killer, and got nothing, Praise Be!

30gr VGs like the H110 too, BTW.

One of the best, IMO.

And with CCI 450 primers.

Hey Gunner - $1700 is a mite high, even if it does have nice wood.

I have a black pad #1B in .218 Bee, and it shoots very well, and came with really striking wood. Think I paid $1200 or so. Hornady made a run of the brass, and I grabbed 400 or so cases.

Thanks Tex, been wondering where you've been, couldn't remember when the rut kicked off down your way.

Thanks for the info, last check the little rifle was still there.
