| Fill the case up with IMR or Hodgdon 4350 and seat a 110 grain bullet just deep enough to hold it in the case, and stand back and blow fur all over Canada. |

| Same Same only 06 for the kid - I tried to get some 125 Ballistic tips to fly. Give that up!! I had to seat them so far off the rifling I new it wouldn't work.. Rem 06 Classic Bedded... Anyways I would opt for a longer bullet as in a 155 Palma or 168 Match from the various makers.. Atleast you'll hit what your shootin at.. and they don't cost that much more.... Less powder to! |

| WW760 I had some leftover, But its the throat.. I can't even come close to the rifleing and no it is not burnt out , less than 300rds down the tube - Head space is only .002" longer than the Norma cases I'm using. I like to run my bullets about .010 off usually - somtimes further back but seldom past .020" I would have to go down and look but I think I'm over .050 off and that is with a .150 seting depth ( used as a single shot) |

| If they shoot well out of your rifle you well vaporize any varmint you hit with them. ![[Big Grin]](images/icons/grin.gif) Don't expect to recover much for pelts off yotes or fox. |

My friend George P. back in Utah in the 70's loaded 110 gr. Sierra's in his .300 Win. Mag. First time I ever saw a fellow reload a case by pouring the powder into a shoebox and then dipping the entire case into the powder to fill it to the rim. He seated the bullets just deep enough to hold on.
I won't say what the powder was, and Lord only knows what charge weight it was, but it was safe with the 110 grain bullet.
And - when we went to Wyoming to hunt jacks with it in the winter - can you say "nothing left but a red spot on the snow"? ( a very wide red spot, at that. ![[Smile]](images/icons/smile.gif) |

| I have a friend that does that, shoots compressed loads out of a 30-378wby with 110 gr bullets. It is total hell on anything it hits. |
