I'll have some Scott. But make sure Axel don't find out.I wouldn't want him posting any bullshit data, since you guys seem to be sharing the same computer

Come on, Karl. I'm sure 'ScottS'/'Axel'/et al., only Googled up SAFE data.

Well in that case I guess its safe to ask for some authentic headshot bison reports complete with personally recovered woodleigh bullet pics as well.

What I will do is use the Alexander Arms load data as a starting point. It is available online so all can see it.

Will post plenty of pictures with little notes attached so you can see it was not gleaned from Google search.

Will have to wait for the weather to warm up a bit. Hopefully, I will be able to provide data by March at the latest.

Okay,

These are the max loads I will try, at least to start.

Bullet - 334gr Rainer FMJ
Case - AA 50 Beowulf (I believe they are Starline)
Primer - CCI 350

Load #1
IMR4227 - 40 grains
Calculated muzzle velocity - 1896 fps
Calculated chamber pressure - 40,712 psi

Load #2
H110 - 42 grains
Calculated muzzle velocity - 1930 fps
Calculated chamber pressure - 40,000 psi

Load #3 (taken from Alexander Arms reloading data)
Lil gun - 37.9 grains
Calculated muzzle velocity - 1894 fps
Calculated chamber pressure - 41,180 psi

Alexander arms advertises there 334 gr factory load to have a chamber pressure of 35,000 psi and a muzzle velocity ~ 1950 fps.

When the weather warms up a bit I will take these loads out and chrony them. We will see then how close the simulation and the advertising are to reality.

Okay,

These are the loads I will start with and we will see what the response is from there.

All loads utilize:

Rainer - 334 gr FMJ bullets
CCI 350 Primers
Alexander Arms brass


IMR4227 loads
#1
38 grains
Calculated muzzle velocity - 1770 fps
Calculated chamber pressure - 35,000 psi

#2
40 grains (I CONSIDSER THIS ONE TO BE A MAX LOAD)
Calculated muzzle velocity - 1896 fps
Calculated chamber pressure - 40,712 psi

#3
44 grains
Calculated muzzle velocity - 2155 fps
Calculated chamber pressure - 52,000 psi - Should Cause Case Head Expansion ie Extractor Marks < !--color-->

H110 loads

#1
36.5 grains
Calculated muzzle velocity - 1595 fps
Calculated chamber pressure - 25,200 psi

#2
40.0 grains
Calculated muzzle velocity - 1809 fps
Calculated chamber pressure - 34,600 psi

#3
42.5 grains
Calculated muzzle velocity - 1961 fps
Calculated chamber pressure - 41,400 psi

Personally I think the H110 loads are predicting far too low of pressures, we shall see though < !--color-->

Since so many here seem to believe I do not actually shoot guns I have taken the following pictures as evidence. Additionally since Karl had requested this information I attached some special little notes to the following pics, just for Karl.

Here are the IMR 4227 loads as components


Here are the H110 loads as components



Here is the rifle:



Here is a close-up of the rifle for Karl. It clearly shows the caliber designation:


It is too cold around here currently to do any development work, so you will have to wait a while for the actual results. Hopefully it will warm up enough to go out by March.

Well Well! I forgot about this thread



Same lengthy drivel as the trolls.

Same IP address as the trolls.

And a note adressed to me.



What does this all mean?



Do we have another 700nitro being born here?



Axel- from schizopphrenic troll, to schizophrenic troll with a gun?





Or is there more (or less) than meets the eye here?









Karl.



PS Axel the guy who owns that gun will probably be pissed that you put my name on it mate.
