Why We Don't Use Other People's Loads To Start

Recommended Posts

Yup.

Had a friend that wanted me to help him sight in his Sav 99 in 22/250

Well we got started and that stupid thing wouldnt hit the broadside of a barn at 25 yds (we went to that from 100) so I grabbed the rifle to inspect the usual suspects when I noticed it said 250 Sav on the barrel.

I showed it to my friend when he saw it he was shocked.

Lol.

No wonder.......

Saw something similar a buddy was trying to sight in his 30-06. He was using reloads made from old military brass. At 25 yds he was missing the Target by up to 20'. The brass had been resized to 270 win.
