Tried several factory loads in my .260 and got OK results ... gave Chad a call, he spent a solid 15-20 minutes with me understanding what I wanted to do and explaining my options, and he had 100 rounds of custom hand loads ready for me the next day. Groups tightened up considerably, and the price was just a little more than I paid for factory loads. Can't recommend Chad highly enough.

He's a good dude and knows a little about loading  Really, he's a walking reloading manual.

He helped me out a bunch with my Tikka 223, both in terms of working up some sample ammo and loading me some bulk for it, and helping me out once I got my press and started loading on my own. He's good people for sure.

Wow, thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad to hear they shot well for you. The 260 Rem is one of the rounds I know intimately. Thanks again!!

Had Chad reload 100 rounds of 30-30 with 150gr projectiles awhile back. Cost was more than off the shelf loads. First time to the range was an eye opener. Was shooting about 4.5 inches high at 100 yards, but the accuracy was amazing (could put a dime on the 5 shot group and touch ALL holes). A little adjustment to lower the group to 1 inch high at 100 yards. For informational sake I tried some shots at 25 yards and 160 yards (farthest target at range). 25 yards = slightly more than 2" high. 160 yards = 1.25" low. Looks like I'm 'good to go' at most ranges. On actual animal- aim point = impact at 60 yards. Well worth the extra cost. HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!

Chad has been great. A couple of years back I hit him up about some 300blk loads and then some advice with my reloading. Even though his business is bullets, he took the time to help me out with some loadwork.
