the 200 hornady works to

My wildcat cartridges are proprietary information, and since there is no one making the brass for them [I've asked] it won't be put out there. To get the cartridges I developed there were up to 13 steps to forming the cases. Thanks for watching from Down Under.

No. Thanks for watching.

Not to mention that it is a whole lot easier to get into a 7 PRC or 6.5 PRC than some wildcat only chambered by a select few gunsmiths with load data only for one powder and a few bullets and no option to buy ammo. The marketing may be misleading or even dishonest, but lowering the bar for entry is a big deal for the average gun buyer. I can buy a 28 Nosler or 7mm PRC Savage pre-fit barrel, go/no go gauges, a set of dies, some brass, and be up and running with a set of reliable load data (Hornady and Hogdon have 7PRC load data available for free on their websites) in 2-3 months for little cost. What does it cost and how long does it take to do the same in 7mm-404 WE?

Bunch of BS my friend from your side since don't listen and pay attention to whole video and exact words used, but if it makes you happy to be a sheep then go for it...Randy is honest and straight foreward with facts, manufacturers are reinventing the wheel and you're buying this nonsense😂

@@dawwlo - Randy is obsessed with the 7 Rem Mag. There's nothing new under the sun when it comes to cartridge design and manufacture. I've probably forgotten more about cartridges and handloading than you'll ever know. Get back to me after you've designed your own one-of-a-kind wildcat round, signing all the checks and going through all of the rigamarole, knowing that in the end it will be just another round, like so many others.

@@jasonbroom7147 Good for you, now I understand why you need another round to eventtualy be forgotten in time

@@dawwlo - That's the point, though... ALL rounds will be forgotten, in time. The only thing priceless is knowledge, and I gained a ton of it developing a true wildcat. Life is too short to whine when newer, better things (like the 7 PRC) come around. If you understood why belted cartridges exist, you'd also understand their limitations and why a beltless round, with a larger case diameter, is actually a better design. When a very experienced, but stuck in his ways gunsmith can't grasp that value, it's kind of sad, frankly.

Hardness of the cases is always measured at the head. Always. Thanks for watching.

Because there are so many variables in wind currents between the hunter and the animal and a shot just a bit off can mean the difference between a dead animal or a wounded one that the hunter may or may not recover. Have fun shooting at targets that don't bleed and suffer if you are off a bit because all of the gadgets and gidgets most "hunters" now rely on, can't tell anyone the difference in air currents. An example. From my place to 800 yards are several gullies and a creek bed, and by looking closely at grass movement it is possible to see that the wind is not consistently blowing the same direction or velocity at all, but changes drastically by terrain. So, yes, all the practicing at the range is all fine and good and a must. But shooting at gongs or paper is NOT the same as taking a chance on a bullet placement not going exactly where you think it is. And the gong or paper can't take a step in that fraction of time it takes for impact. Our majestic animals deserve better than being ego targets. Thanks for watching.

IMR 4350 OR IMR 4831. either are perfect for the .270 Winchester. There are others as well but those 2 are the old standbys.

RL26

@@1HeavyHitr Yep, if you can find it, R26 is hot!!

He would tell you there are three he feels work the best and those three are Hodgdon’s H4831 then Reloader 22 and lastly the very best Reloader 26.

@@nickcannon1558 Yep, you are probably right. H4831 will give the slowest velocity with that bullet if that's a concern. R22 is pretty temp sensitive and R 26 is great but very difficult to come by, at least right now. Good call!!

I shoot revolvers, and shoot centerfire bullseye competitions with revolvers also. Variation is normal, you may want to fire them at least once, then run them thru your sizing die and then measure several to find minimum length and trim all to that size. If you are shooting target loads with low pressures, you may never need to trim again, and that starline brass will last pretty much forever. I taper crimp my target revolver loads, so little variations in case length have little to no significance. But if you are shooting high pressure magnums, the cases will stretch, some more than others, you will find yourself needing to trim that batch of brass, especially roll crimping to the bullet groove. Case length matters if you are trying to align that heavy roll right into the groove in the bullet. Lee makes oversize sizing dies, or you can send your sizing die for them to open up a little. This way it will be much less effort during sizing and will work the brass less. Depends on your chambers, of course.

@@michaeldoe4805 Thank you. That was really helpful. I have the Lee Factory crimp die and that taper crimps. Im shooting low pressure target stuff. I was thinking that the variance of length would affect crimp strentgh in the longer pieces and result in less accuracy. If they are not that sensitive thats so much nicer. I havent done all the testing yet just figuring whats best to do. I didnt want to load the brass once then trim it if I should be frimming from the beginning for exact equal length

I don't believe .005 to be of any great matter. Thanks for watching.

Randy is not your average guy. Vmost average guy keep it under 500

@@Peter-od7op So it’s do as I say not as I do. Got it.

@NC Woodland Roamer this man ain't kidding. He's got just as much experience if not more than some smart alek culedo ever had.

He claims not to promote long range hunting, while saying he builds long range hunting rifles, go figure

They admitted early on it was their data they were sharing and their methods were infeasible to the average shooter. 😊

@@davidsalsedo Agree with you 100% just look at the benchrest and F-class crowd if they have a barrel that isn’t shooting .25 or less and many expect half that that barrel is no good to them and onto the next one. Those shooters agg in the 1s and low 2s over a whole season hundreds of shots and Hornady trying to say that’s not possible how is it not they do it every single day. I have several guns some of which are even factory rifles that consistently shoot down in the low .2s sometimes even smaller and I never once had to shoot 30 50 or 100 rounds to verify these loads were as good as they are. Now I have seen times when I may work a load say in December when it’s 20 degrees out and that be a 3 tenth load then shoot it on a 80 degree day in June and that load will be then a 6 tenth load but as soon as the cooler weather rolls around it’s right back to normal. Hornady is a good company I think I shoot some of there bullets the interlock the and the new CX bullet good bullets but when your dealing with people and a company that will feed you a line of shit just as quick as anything you have to be able to read through the hype of say a new cartridge. Understand ballistics and that one cartridge with less powder can’t possibly push bullets faster than one with more case compacity all things equal. Hornady has made a boat load of money since the creedmoor with lies and false advertising and then I saw that podcast I thought come on Hornady more lies and playing on the gullibility of your customers that don’t know any better makes me wonder if the bullets of there’s that I have been using if I will continue to use!! I don’t see any other bullet and cartridge manufactures making these wild claims look at nosler and there line if cartridges they have there not out there every day bashing everything that is competition for the cartridges they know they made some great rounds and they let the end user do there advertising because I feel word of mouth makes a much stronger impression on someone than hyped up false advertising!!

Not excepting the existence of a .250 gun is an error. Saying no gun is .250 aggregate is like saying; No man is a four minute mile runner aggregate. During the life of the barrel or a marathon aggregate test maybe not just like during the life of a man or a marathon run maybe not but for long periods in between to deny the possibility of a four minute mile or the existence of a quarter minute barrel is obviously an error. Benchrest guys do it and better as a standard to compete these days. As do track stars running the mile these days. A determined disposition to reject objective truth is almost the norm of human existence these days. Years ago there were philosophers that discussed the objective existence of universals and particulars. Plato and those who adhere to his philosophy are followers of the universals. However a student of Plato by the name of Aristotle showed the error of not recognizing the existence of particulars and the procession to know things through simple syllogism; A diagram from particulars to universal. Aristotle understood the importance of not denying either but what we could come to understand now as subordinate autonomies. One is foundational and necessary the other is specific to a particular.
