DF, glad you had a good visit with Bill and got some really good info sounds like. Don’t sound like you’ll need to fire off a lot of rounds for load development.
Don’t know if you gathered, he’s the HMFIC at Swift.
Didn't realize that, although he obviously was very knowledgeable. He answered the phone on about the second ring.
I told him I had developed 160 NAB loads for my bud's 7RM Sendero over RL-26, used very successfully on a PG hunt. "He should have used Scirocco's". I told him bud was a big NAB fan, but for my fast twist .22-204, I used 75 gr. Scirocco's and I let him know how well they whacked hogs. He liked that.
I think I casually mentioned that I have some .416 400 NPT's on the way.
He wasn't too generous concerning the competition. I didn't mention Partitions or such any more....
I was looking for Swift bullet info, not trying to pizz him off....
From then on, it was all A-Frames and Breakaway Solids... We talked for a while. He was in no hurry to get me off the line. I enjoyed the visit. He was very generous with both his time and his knowledge.
DF
