The stability of 160 gr bullets in a .270 Win 1:10 twist is pretty close to the edge, I can not see this solid shank = more bullet length, added length helping.
What are the opinions in regard to this bullet and stability ?

That said, I ask again for the  members to ask around, can anyone find some nosler 160 gr bullets for me. I do not wish to do the whole job to find no stock available.

oom Drie, I have just lost enthusiasm in the reloading, almost like common sense kicked in. I have hundreds of reloads for every caliber I own and will likely not hunt through my stock. I also have for instance, about 300 .270 bullets that still need loading before i will "NEED" new ammo, so why reload more ?
I know this is a "kak" attitude to have, but has kinda just slipped in.

What do you need - inspiration from us or a swift kick?

I still need to get to this load development, bullets have been lying on shelf for 2-3 years now.

General Discussion / Re: BIG guns

They had a few such weapons building up to this.
I remember the one big gun had side chambers filled with propellent that ignited as the missile passed. These added chambers edged the shell to greater speeds and filled the loss of expansion caused by the extremely long barrel.
The extra charges were there because the barrel was so long that the bullet travel along it caused loss of pressure, the pressure was topped up so to "along the way"

I think it would be nice if we can have a forum dedicated to firearm  / ammo collectors.
I know there are not a lot of us out there, but we are a lot more dedicated than the average firearm owner.

I can post the first article in there about the difference between the Russian AKM vs the Norinco Type 56.


There is now a Collector's Corner, just below the General section, and in there are three message boards - Associations, Ammunition and Firearms.

Let me know if that is suitable.
