- More load testing and first Rock chucks.
My latest community poll asked: Is Top speed, precision, accuracy or Confidence in making the shot more important. Pleased to see that most placed an emphasis an "confidence". Testing 95-100 grain bullets with RL-16, RL-23 and RL- 22 to achieve 3,000+ FPS.

Good Morning Dave & Good Shooting!!! You really opened that Rock Chuck, I've not seen that since I went prairie dog shooting! 243w. shooting real good! Have a Great Memorial Day Dave!!!
Thanks for watching and for honoring Memorial Day.
I've never before seen a shot + field dressing at the exact same moment. Wow, is all I can say 😎
Thanks for another Saddle Up Saturday morning 👍
Thanks for watching Jeff.
Dave. Another good video. And as always great shooting. Thanks for sharing and take care.
Thanks Bobcat
Great video Dave.👍
The 243 gets overlooked way too often as a good, all around cartridge. 👍👍
I am glad i waited to the end to comment, as I was hoping to see some rockchuck dusting.
Glad you both watched and commented. Thanks again. See you on your next video.
@@davestrohmeyer-saddleupsho8009
Well yes!!
One must watch the entire video (sometimes two or three times) in order to properly learn the information presented. 👍
Comments let the creator know it isn't just Government Spy-bots watching. 😅
Don’t overthink perfection, Strohmeyer! 6mm Rocks! And that setup is darn close with .157 results! Next!
Thanks for watching Scott.
You hear folks talk about 'inherently accurate calibers'. IDK but 243 might just be one. Given all else is equal. ( Well made rifle, barrel, loading. )
@@nohandle257 Great cartridge for small to medium game.
I've always enjoyed using the Reloder series of powders from Alliant. As of late, I'm getting excellent results in 7-08 with RL 17 and Hornady 154gr SST. So far the world is short one coyote with said combo! Haha
Thanks Dave!
Agree on Alliant powders. But good ole Win. 760 works best in my 243's and 30-06's out of all powders tested.
I was looking at the ballistics tables for my preferred load using a 100g Hornady in .243 Win.
About 2900 fps is all I need for expansion in the lungs of a deer to about 250 yds. The bullet will be traveling about 2350 fps or so at 250 yds.
Back in the 80's I called Sierra, reloaders help phone line. I asked the tech. what was the lowest velocity needed for expansion in a deer's lung area.
He answered quickly and with confidence telling me I needed at least 2350 fps for reliable expansion in a deers lungs. Then he went on to explain that this was if no ribs were hit.
So therefore most of the time I load about 2900 to 2950 fps/w the 100 grain bullet.
I don't think I've gone up in velocoty much past 3000 fps with the Speer 105g spire point bullet/IMR 4350. This load was described in Speer's №. 11 reloading manual. I shot very few of those loads since they were probably hotter than a blowtorch in the .243's barrel. I use about 2875 to 2925-50 with the Speer 105g load. Accuracy is lacking a little though with this bullet.
A word of caution to other loaders reading this comment and load reference. The copyright on the Speer reloading manual is 1987. Things have changed, since then and maybe drastically with powder, primers, bullets, cases, and rifles. Canister powders are supposed to stay the same. But I don't think this has happened because most all powder manufacturers have changed ownership since then. Its a ducky that they don't make powders exactly the way the past owners did. So be careful using older powders and new data, or new powder with older data. In 30 some odd years, in my opinion, canister powder has not remained unchanged. Same goes for pistol powder.
Thanks for your comments here and for watching.
Great video, the two smallest groups are fantastic. Wouldn’t break my head to get another 100 feet per second, at 2840 it’s flat shooting enough 👍
Yes, But unanswered questions relating to published data always leaves me befuddled.
Hi Dave, I enjoy your video's, excellent groups. I have had good luck with IMR 7828 and the Speer 100 gr BTSP using the Nosler data. Velocity around 2950 and nice groups. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for your comment here and for watching.
Those loads sure made a mess of them rock chucks. Good shooting Dave.it’ll be interesting to see where you need to go to find some speed.
Thanks, be sure to watch a future 243 video.
Another great video, Dave. Keep em coming. Looking forward to more
Thanks for watching.
Thank you , always enjoy learning from you.
Thanks for watching and for your kind words of encouragement.
I would take super accuracy, over velocity anyday. Just have to write the ballistics on a dope card, And follow them. Our goal is always to put a ninety five grain Bullet from a. six millimeter in a groundhogs eye. App three hundredYards.😊😊😊
For small calibers "Speed is always your friend" I just need to figure out why this new rifle/ammo combos aren't meeting published speeds and why there is such a disparity of charge weights between manuals.
I've been reloading for 20+ years and have seen the same differences in Max loads in different manuals.. an I don't always find a load for the specific bullet I am using (but same weight).. So, I do what you did, and work my way up, looking for the sweet spot...
I wouldn't worry about 1-200 fps, if the accuracy is there, for (big game) hunting distances it won't matter, and for varmints, well... misses happen, it's just another excuse :)
Agreed. Thanks for your comment and for watching. More testing soon.
.243 is one of my favorite cartridges. I like that stock.
Thanks for your comment and for watching.
Good shooting and congratulations on a successful hunt brother. God bless you too. 👍
Thanks Rick.
ha ha ha sounds exactly like my dog when I shoot something.
My neighbor has great Bird hunting Dogs.
Great Shooting Dave ! Stick with what works best for you and your rifle. Trying new powder can be fun or it can be a mistake. Have a Great weekend and a memorial day remember our Vets that gave everything for our nation.
Yes! and Thank You.
I know Honady load data max charge is not always max pressure, but best precision or maybe I should say max speed before groups fall apart in their testing.
Good to know, Thanks
Just wondering . . . If that kind of chronograph might affect the barrel harmonics?
There is a point of impact shift. But no change in group size, if I do my part consistently from string to string.
I like hybrid v100 for 95 ish bullets in 243 win
For the heavy bullets 7828 ssc to h1000
Thanks for your suggestions. stay tuned for future 90 and 95 grain new videos.
Hello Dave
Hello Brian!
So you’re setting seating depth blindly? Longer throat or not you can measure it
Initial testing only against published data only. Thanks for watching.
Just my opinions::::Invest in a better rest and bench, buy some wind flags and learn to use them, and get a stand alone crono and take that weight off the barrel
All of your points are valid for "Bench rest or match precision shooting disciplines... But shooting at multiple non shooting range locations and preparing for hunting possible situations as is shown at the end of this video, my portable system works well enough.
@@davestrohmeyer-saddleupsho8009 Ill give You this, You do very well with accuracy with the set up you have.
