07Guardian Report post Posted February 20, 2021 I'm sorting some brass and came across a few with this headstamp. Anyone know what the HE stands for? I did a quick internet search and found nothing. Figured someone in the forum who's smarter than me would know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

07Guardian Report post Posted February 20, 2021 I'm sure the FC is federal cartridge. The batch of brass has about 70 with "FC 270 Win" and ten that include HE. Just curious what the HE is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

452b264 Report post Posted February 20, 2021 I only have half a box left of 3006 spr. 180 partition HE, which is unfortunate they shoot .5/.65 in my rifle. The factory specs. 2880 for 180 gr. Bullet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roninflag Report post Posted February 22, 2021 I have a couple boxes each of the bonded bear law and nosler partitions. 180 grain 30-06. The partitions shot .6 and clocked 2888 out of a Remington 700 mtn rifle with a 22” barrel . Worked real good on a 6 point bull elk. I would love to know their recipe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
