nice. my tax return is going to be going towards my lift. but I found out the other day, my work kinda screwed me over, so now I'm only getting about 300 back instead of at least 800 I should be. so now it's back to being about 3 months before I lift....unless I get a new job. which I am working on.

I really need to start going to bed earlier. also, While watching TV. within a couple episodes, I watched at least 4 XJs be killed/exploded. all pre 97s. and one was a 2wd one in a very ugly blue color.

Damn, that thing is sweet. I hope your jeep does end up like that. Just need to bob your bed.

Federal cases only at 17k+ CUP and not in my guns.

Here's what I have in my log:

4.8 gr. Bullseye under a Rainier 230 gr. Plated round nose @800 fps
5.4 gr. Bullseye under a Hornady HP XTP 200 gr. @840 fps
5.0 gr. Titegroup under a 185 gr. SWC lead. @920

All with Winch pistol primer and once fired (at least) Federal brass. These are samples that work well for me, YMMV, load at your own risk.

wondering if I can get a little flatter trajectory. I did the same thing with my .308, I normally load 150gr fmj bt with 40gr of 3031 and they clock in around 1200. with a 45gr 3031 with a 110gr bullet I can get just under 3k and its a laser, super flat lol

Is there a reference that states the pressures a certain barrel or mechanicals can take? My 1911 will be the first semi I have owned and reloaded for.
