I loaded 50 rounds of .243 Win. for the Long Ranger. 38.0 grains of RL 15 pushing a Sierra 85 grain HPBT. That rifle really likes this load.
Here they are as a couple!!

Need to feed the Savage, so I loaded 50 rounds of 7mm-08 Rem. I like the Sierra 120 gr. ProHunter and use 40.0 gr of H4895. Velocity and terminal performance is great for whitetails.
You can see a couple of left over red tipped Nosler 120 gr. BTs in the rear. I use the same powder and charge with those. They are also great shooters, and I go to them when the Sierras are scarce (because they're more money
).

don't know if you are aware of Shooter's Pro Shop .... they sell Nosler's "Blems" .... their bullets that might have a blemish in their finish .... I've used them for years and don't ever recall being able to see the blemish .... as you can see in the link below, their prices are very reasonable .... if you are interested you can get on their mailing list and they will notify you when they have them in stock

JEBar,
Thanks! I opened an account and asked to be notified.
I saw these once before sometime ago and was leery of what they categorized as a blemish. Thought it might be a construction or dimension issue and maybe affect terminal performance. But I'll give them a try!

I finally broke down and ordered an RCBS Chargemaster powder dispenser. Found it on sale at Natchez and it’s supposed to arrive tomorrow. I have 200 .223 cases prepped and ready for powder so I’ll be giving it a test drive this weekend.
