    TBH Reloading Library

    Here is a thread to post any reloading recipes that you want to share to help beginners and experts find helpful load data.

    REMEMBER WHEN RELOADING THAT ALL FIREARMS ARE CREATED DIFFERENTLY YOU MUST WORK UP TO ALL LOADS AS THEY MAY NOT BE SAFE IN YOUR RIFLE!

    USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN FOLLOWING ONLINE RECIPES!

    YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY!

    ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS WORK UP TO MAX CHARGES AND DONT ASSUME WHATS SAFE FOR ONE RIFLE WILL BE SAFE FOR ANOTHER!

    I think it’s a good idea to post as much info on each recipe as possible: brass,primer,bullet,powder&charge,coal ext. also post velocity weapon shot from and average group size.

    Have fun and stay safe!

    I’ll start:

    223 Remington (THIS IS A MAX LOAD USE CAUTION)
    Winchester brass
    53gr hornady Vmax
    27.5 grains Varget
    Seated to AR15 mag length

    I’ve had extremely good results with this load out of all 223 rifles I’ve shot it from. Average groups is .5-.75” depending on the rifle. Muzzle velocity out of my 16” AR was 3150fps.

      Components that work well together. Ok. Loads for specific rifles. Nah

              I have a .308 dedicated to light loads for kids and beginners

              I load Nosler 125 BTs, Barnes 130 TTSX, Hornady 125 SST

              I’ve had the best success using IMR 4895. Sub MOA at 100, light recoil, DRT shots. I do limit this gun to 150 yards

                    I was suggesting putting the rifle because if you look in most reload books they do have the test rifle listed.

                      I think he means no two rifles (even of the same model and manufacturer) will shoot the same. So a load for one rem700 that shoots well might be a poor load in another.

                          I would discourage anyone from going with powder loads from someone else's comments or 'home-recipes' online, here or otherwise. Always USE a reloading manual and/or COMPARE with one! This business is too dangerous to be experimenting or working up loads just to be macho.
                          Not pointing anyone out at all but reminding newcomers that safety is paramount here.
