Well, it's pretty sweet for a guy with about a thousand cases and bullets already in hand along with a bunch of suitable powders.

As to the Accelerators, I'm not sure they even still make them, but that same guy has a couple of hundred .22/30 sabots and a seater tool to load them. Never got great accuracy from the original factory loads, but I have a couple of ideas about using Trail Boss or 5744 to make up some small game/turkey loads. Already have had good luck with 110gr Speer HPs and Trail Boss.

A .30/30 would do a lot of the same stuff, but I'm totally bereft of brass and dies for that one. There was of course, a free .30/30 in the box the .308 came in.


What fresh Hell is this?
