My load WILL BE DIFFERENT than yours... ALWAYS work up...

Fire forming of .30-06 brass.

9.3 grains of Bullseye powder was the best, Clays (7.3 gr) also did well... 300+ cases FFed with only two split necks.

Bad news...

12.3 grains of Blue Dot (same load data as the others) started to back out primers... and "ching" snapped off the extractor (CZ-550 Medium) after about 40 rounds (didn't realize until too late).

New extractor is $35...

Such is life... different powders act differently.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
