dan belisleHey Martin, did you get your 500 A square back from Premier yet? I was in there the other day and looking around and didn't see it on the rack. Hopefully that means you are playing with it now. I have to build me one of those. Any headaches pitfalls to look out for? Take care - Dan
01 August 2002, 03:32
<phurley>I load the following for myself. 22-250, 7mm Rem, 7mm STW, 7mm Wby, 30-06, .300 Win, .338 win, .338 Lapua, .340 Wby, .358 STA, .416 Rem. I load anything else for a buddy except 50 BMG, if the owner of the rifle had the dies and will furnish all the components. Actually I show them how to do it and supervise their loading, I don't want the responsibility of the loaded ammo.

0.280 Ross (make cases from 8x68 and bump up 0.284 bullets to 0.291. I know, I know - the book says 0.288 but I polished my die out too much - they shoot OK. A true long range rifle - 28" barrel - so you don't need to get so close! Still need to figure how to scope it.)
0.300 Sherwood (draw 0.222 cases to make a rimmed Sherwood case and swage 0.308 bullets down to 0.300)

Leaving for the Kalahari tomorrow night - drive through the night to get to the farm by Friday afternoon. Still haven't decided whether to take the 250/3000 and limit myself to Springbok or to suffer the weight of the 8x68 and invite a Gemsbok to dinner. Decisions - decisions.
