Fireforming

that's a very nice rifle indeed. And when you know what kind of machinery they had in those days... it's a real piece of art!

Suz...that is impressive accuracy from an old rifle, and it looks magnificent, in oustanding condition.

Suz,

I'm glad that everything worked out. Now you can add your own tutorial to the discussions on the other sites, if you feel so inclined.

Well the other sites seem to have problemos with sharing load data but I can at least share the idea of QuickLoad data. Not the data just the Idea of using it. I've tried to be friendly but they even ignore my personal e-mails, so the heck with them. Ya know if I blow myself up it's my fault and I know that too but when you know from experience what works and what to stay away from then why not share. They'd rather you not even try, I guess. That's never gotten me anywhere.....so anyway yes it worked out great and I'd not hesitate to use that data, it's a tad anemic shooting but I started from the low end and expect it will ramp up as I try the other powders. The pressures seem well below cast load data and I think there's a good chance I can stay with those loadings and find a pleasing load.
