    Nukes:

    If your ballistics program is accurate to under 1/2 mil @ 600, it is fine. You would have a real hard time trying to figure out what variables are involved and a harder time trying to...

    TS:

    A couple of guys have done so. Run a search and you may find the threads.

    There is no difference in accuracy. However, the Lapua brass is much more durable so for the money, it is...

    No, I understood what you were saying. We go through this argument once or twice a year on the forum.

    Bjorn:

    You may notice differences past 600 because many programs use two algorithms. One to about 600 and another past 600.

    I use these things to get me close but don't expect them to be...

    XCR:

    None of the powders are good for the Grendel. 4198 is too fast, H4895 and 4064 are too bulky.

    Get the CCI 450 primers as most of the brass you will use will be small rifle.

    Bolt gun is a totally different story. Especially if you are using a Mauser action. However, I still doubt anyone makes a powder that would give that type of velocity safely from a Grendel size...

    TD:

    Sure you can.

    First. Get a supply of bolts because you will shear bolt lugs at a rate of probably one bolt every every twenty shots. Until you blow your upper apart which will probably...

    Magazines for the Grendel are all made by one company. Too bad as far too many of their Grendel magazines suck.

    Rust:

    If you are worried about pressure given a .2 grain difference in a charge, your load is too hot.

    Use a powder and charge that reloading handbooks recommend. Seat your bullet so that it...

    I was more on the lines of thinking of how people rationalize dissonant cognitions so as to maintain a psychological homeostasis. I think it would fit in this particular circumstance but I...

    JAS.

    I was more looking for an accepted psychological theory.

    Do you think he meant Cognitive Dissonance Theory (Festinger, 1957)?

    Do some research and you will come up with a couple of presses that you think will be good. Then present them and we can...

    TD:

    Don't use Reloader 7 with the Grendel. Way too fast for any bullet in the Grendel. Reloader 10X is way too fast so Reloader 7 will be way, way, way too fast.
