Cartridges I?m reloading.
Can you guys guess what they are?
Most of them are really easy.

Some are pretty hard Nug! :huh?:

My guesses...from left to right:

.357 mag, .204 Ruger, .223 Rem, .243 Win, 6.5X55 Swedish Mauser, .270 Win, .280 Ackley Improved, 30-30 Win, .358 Norma, .376 Steyer, .458 Winchester..

VERY unique and varied selection!

How did I do?
 
I don't think the one on the left is a .357 (unless it's warped) but I wanna know how you figured out .280 Ackley Improved (I think ya did real on all but possibly those two - and you may be right there as well).
 
I don't think the one on the left is a .357

I couldn't tell if it's a straight-walled case or not...I'm really just guessing that's what it is. It DOES look funny...


but I wanna know how you figured out .280 Ackley Improved

It has a sharper shoulder than the one next to it...but it really doesn't look like a 40 degree shoulder of the Ackleys.. 7x64 perhaps? 8)
 
.32-20 WIN for that one on the left?

And I think that other one is just a .280 Remington.
 
444, 224 weatherby, 220 swift, 243, 260, 303, 30-06, 30-30, 375JDJ, 35 Whelan, and finally a 45-70 Gov't. LOL :lol: Where's my prize *G*
 
Wow, Chuck. :applause:

Thanks Nug! I thought I had it...That .280/7X64 had me a little! That's really a nice, varied collection! You can do ANYTHING with those cartridges!

I think there are still gaps in there.
270WSM or 300WSM is missing. :shock:
Or something else. :lol:

Are they going to fit in 3 or 4 pictures?
 
Nug you got it covered pretty good except for one real long range blaster like a 300 RUM or maybe a .338 Lapua. Nice collection!

Thanks R-man. I know. I really want .338 Lapua. The other day I almost bought Sako TRG-42 in 338 Lapua. Jim had to twist my arm and escort me from the store. :wall:
I?m still drooling on that rifle. Store had it for $3200 and 20% off coupon. But thing is that we do not have range to shoot it. Longest distance available at our range is 300 yards. :cry:

Or should I wait for this http://www.cz-usa.com/media_releases.php?m=4&msgid=66 ?
 
I dunno the CZ might be good, but personally I think I would either get the Sako or more likely for that kind of jack go the custom route.
 
wow... That is a real gift ya got there Chuck!

I got the obvious... .204, .223, and 30-30 Maybe cuz I have all of those.

Pretty amazing! What is up with that 6.5 Swede?? Needs a longer bullet :huh?:

Nug - Jimmy, can you shed some light please?

JJ,
Swede likes heavy bullets. One on the picture is Norma Oryx 156GR seated to 0.03 off the grooves.
Rifle, of course is Steyr :wink: Mountain with 20in barrel.
I?m getting velocity 2700 ft/sec with 48GR N560.
I know Jim likes 160GR Sierras., but I do know details.
