    Help trying to match a powder from the 1960s

    That’s good to know. Dads rifle has never been chronoed. It is a Rem 721 also with a 26 barrel.

    Help trying to match a powder from the 1960s

    Thanks for the info. I have had my own 300 H&H in an x-bolt since 2018 and also have used H 4350 in it. I was just trying to recreate my Dads load in his rifle because I knew it had been so effective. What kind of dye are you using for neck sizing?

    Help trying to match a powder from the 1960s

    I was afraid of that. I have tried the IMR4350 I currently have but accuracy has not been very good.

    Yes he started reloading in the early 60s. He used this same load hunting across North America in the 60s, 70s, and 80s.

    Turkey choke for Remington 1187 12 Ga.

    I use either a primos tightwad (.660) or Trulock (.675) in both my 870 and 11-87. They both give a good even hunting pattern with 7&9 tss blend and are reasonably priced.

    Help trying to match a powder from the 1960s

    I’m trying to match my Dad’s favorite load from the early 1960s for use in his rifle that I inherited. His notes just say 67 grns of 4350 for the powder. What would be an equivalent in todays powder? IMR4350? H4350? or something else?

    Deer - lets see em

    NC whitetail killed last night. Crab claw 8 pt. Came out into a winter wheat field right at dark. The closer he got the better he looked. Watched him chase 3 does and make a scrape.

    Red lens when walking in the woods in the dark to get to tree stand?

    Been using a green streamlight headlamp for about 15 years. Seems to work ok.

    NC Deer Load

    Any of those will kill any deer in NC at 200 yds or less. I’ve killed a pile of NC deer with plain old hornady 130 grain bullets in a 270. Also recently been using accubonds. They work well also and have not damaged a lot of meat.
