SST

• “My Remington 700 ADL 30-06, the 150 grain SST is set just above the cannelure (shorter than recommended OAL) and its shooting dime size groups.”

• “I recently loaded Hornady 139-grain SST bullets in my 7x57 Mauser and in my 7x57 AI.”

  Bullets Do Odd Things at Different Ranges

• “So finally I fired about 10 rounds of Hornady 117-grain SST Light Magnum .257 factory loads through the Remington and chronographed each shot.”

• “I gave polite constructive criticism, however, regarding the velocity performance of the 257 Roberts LM load (a 117-grain SST at 2940 fps) and the 280 LM load (unimpressive), and politely pointed out that any reasonably skilled handloader can safely get a 257 Roberts to shoot a 100-grain spitzer at 3200 fps (or higher), and compared the 257 Roberts LM load to Hornady's 6MM LM load (100-grain bullet at 3250 fps).”

• “I also suggested that Hornady's 7x57 LM load (139-grain SST at 2830 fps) could be safely improved to 2900-2950 fps (or higher) with the same 139-grain bullet in a 24 barrel, and pointed out that a number of modern day handloading manuals do just that.”

• “Now using Military cases is like adding 1.5 grains of powder. 30-06 Hornady 150 grain SST, 53 grains of IMR4064. 22 inch barrel 3080fps and 24 inch barrel 3150. 25-06Hornady Third Edition shows 25-06 117 grain 50.3 grains at 3000fpsMy old ragged Hornady old as the hills shows 53.9 3100fps.”

  Lazz Loads: The Short Magnums

• “That Hornady 117 grain SST my 8 year old Grandson really made an impression on everyone from the field to the check in station to the game processing shop.”

  Meditations on the Whitetail Deer

• “He was using my 30-06 700ADL 22 inch barrel (cough, gag!) using Hornady 150 grain SST loaded just over 3050 fps and dropped a nice 5 point buck with one shot.”

  Meditations on the Whitetail Deer

• “Perhaps the key variables for Atlantic cyclones are these atmospheric patterns and not SST, with these same atmospheric patterns or what causes these patterns also causing the short-term SST variability.”
