Powder
These are the powders I have consistently used and keeping going back too!
Sc 4831 is a very accurate powder. The short cut 4831 is way nicer for loading as the propellant flows way better and fills the case more consistently.
Hodgdon Extreme H4831SC Smokeless Powder - 1lb Can
4350 is another great powder it has a little shower burn rate, but still gives very good velocity and very, very accurate cartridges once loaded.
IMR 4350 Smokeless Powder - 8lb Keg
I like mag pro it is a little more sensitive and takes a little more to develop loads then some other powders, but still gives great results once you find a load.

My most used and abused tools that still live to tell their tale! They have been tried and true through the many years I have been re-loading!
The rcbs rock chucker press is a great press. I've literally ran thousands of rounds through mine and it's still working flawless.
RCBS Rock Chucker Supreme Press
I absolutely love the charge master from rcbs. I started out loading with the old balance beam scale and this makes a world of difference. The auto feed once you set the pan down gives you time to press a bullet into the case and keep going. I don'...
RCBS ChargeMaster Supreme Digital Powder Scale and Dispenser
This de-burring tool is a must have for prepping cases.
Deburring Tool .17-60 Caliber
The brass boss is an amazing tool. I have used one several times and love the efficiency that it gives.

Bullets
The top performing bullets that I have tested and witnessed through my years of hunting, target shooting and owning a butcher shop.
The hornady sst is a great hunting bullet. I've harvested several deer and elk with them. The bullet retain it's weight well and was devastating inside. This bullet would land well within my top 5 choices.
Hornady SST Series Reloading Bullets
I just started using the eldx bullet and so far I like it. The bullet does exactly what it the box says. It does well in the wind and on close range impact it nearly explodes with farther shots or retains weight well. I owned a processing plant an...
Hornady ELD-X Series Reloading Bullets
I've used the tried and trued partition for 23 years. This bullet is unstoppable. It may not have the best b.c. that all the long range hunters are looking for but if your not worried about that this is the bullet for you. I have taken numerous an...
Nosler Partition Hunting Reloading Bullets
The nosler accubond is probably my most favorite bullet on the market. This bullet has a great b.c. and stays together great. I have only bullet one bullet out that the weight retention was under 80%. Between my wife brother and myself we have harv...
Nosler Accubond Reloading Bullets
I can't say enough good about the Barnes ttsx I shoot this bullet in my 7mm-08. I have shot one elk and a couple deer with it. The weight retention is remarkable and it drives deep. The 6 point bull that was harvested with this bullet was shot at ...
