thats nothin to complain about!

these are actually my first EVER hand loads...only got dies, powder and bullets for the whelen right now actually...so i only have RE15 on hand i just picked it as it seemed to be the favorite for the whelen...

i have a good helper..so i feel i passed the learning curve pretty quick...


i just worked up a bunch of loads to try and see what she likes...did seat them a bit deeper than last time...

just waiting on the weather to cooperate...im not shooting in the wind to try to read groups....

i want it to be cold since this rifle will only be used when its cold...but need the wind to quit for a day...

and i got a trigger spring on the way so i want to put that in before i head back to the range...have a buddy that has them in all his 7600s and he said it takes them to a nice 2.5-3lbs..i'll be pumped if a 10$ spring lightens it at all...

im in love with the gun, the caliber, and handloading already! cant wait for it to get warm so i can work on the 22-250! thats gunna be fun as i already know its a sub-moa gun...
