Thanks!!! I will have to get the Reloader 15, but that shouldn't be a problem, and I have been using CCI primers, but will pickup the Federal while I am out too. is RP Remington? That is what I have been using now.

it is for pig, and the guide says ranges could be around 200 and he thinks that the whelen is a shortrange rifle. I think he must have had guys that had the Rem700's with 22" barrels.

I wrote e-mail to Mike after your last post and he said same thing, he could get them out ASAP. I tried calling and hew asn't there so I left a message.

How did your's do out past 100? Lots of drop?

thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it.

Kevin,

thank you very much, what load were you using if you dont' mind me asking? I have a Whelen AI with a 26" barrel, so hope that getting the velocity to make the expand right shouldn't be a problem. The 250's are more and more tempting all the time, rather than the puny 225's :-)

I sent an e-mail to northfork asking how quickly they could get the bullets to me. if I could get your load data, I could start a bit lower and possibly get a load ready by next weekend. (this is cutting it very tight but is possible).

Thanks again.

Yes RP is remington. My longest shot with them was about 90 yards, but if you sight in about 2" high at 100 you should only be a tad low at 200. No reason you shouldn't be able to get closer than that with the wind in your favor, are CA pigs as blind as warthogs?
