I am nearing the completetion of a new section on Gun Loads where you can submit loads and view them hopefully with ease...
I am working on adding some more pistol and shotgun rounds at the moment (Muzzeloader probably won't stay)
Have a look and tell me what you think
http://gunloads.com/modules.php?name=Gunloads
You can submit loads if you want..
Great idea Gm I've got a couple of loads for the 310 cadet I'll submit when it's up & running

Gun load master,
I just got done submitting some loads for the 223, with cast and jacketed. Will submit loads for my rifles one cartridge at a time until all are done, and then keep submitting every time I work up a new load.

I added them Bullshop :)
It helps to have the Lead Size filled out too :) It's actually part of a block and the loads get sorted that way too. I edited those just to show them. But for futher reference :)
Keep them coming Bullshop!
That's just what we needed
I believe for the most part, The Rifle and Pistol section is done. If I missed any popular cartidges please let me know and i'll put them in. Feel free to submit as many as you want!
I'd add a few abbreviations to your list:
Spz - Spitzer Point
SBT - Spitzer Boat Tail
LRN - Lead Round Nose
LWC - Lead Wad Cutter
LSWC - Lead Semi Wad Cutter
GC - Gas Check
I added those abbreviations.
Any other suggestions or additions PLEASE let me know!
Nice list for pistol calibers.
From the hip:
-You dubbed the 41mag;
-did you mean .50 Boxer (".55 Boxer")?
-.577 Rev/boxer,
-the montenegrin calibers (I'll look them over if you buy them...),
-15 mm French (I know, there's probably no more than three guns in each of these calibers and we can't afford them, but you asked :mrgreen:
-10mm magnum,
-401 Herters,
-500 Wyoming Express (www.gunblast.com)
-Also some might want to see the 45-70 and others in the handgun section, we had a question about the BFR a few days ago;
-and are we allowed wildcats:twisted: ?

I got a .41 Remington Mag and a .41 Mag.. Are those the same?
I got the .55 boxer from here:
http://www.absoluteastronomy.com/ref...gun_cartridges

Montegegrin calibers... Never heard of those....
15 mm French .. Where about's would that one line up in my list?
10mm magnum - added
.401 Herters - added
.500 Wyoming express - added and impressed :)

Look at the 5th link down :) I've had my site listed there for quite a while. That's a good site.
Just another FYI. If someone has some good information on a specific caliber and wants to write up maybe a story or little article about it. I will add it to that calibers page underneath the loads..
Gunload master,
I really like the new set up over there!!!!!!! On the one 30/30 load with the 2 round balls I was not sure if that one would qualify, but I tried it anyway just because I knew that it would be going to you and that you would do what you thought was best with it, whether it was to post it, or deny it.
DANIEL/BS JR.
P.S. I might try to write a little story about my experiment over the summer with the 223, and cast bullets, and synthetic bullet lubes. If that would be ok?[smilie=w:
You can write up a story about that by all means. I would actually post it on the front page of Gun Loads. More of what I am going for is history of that particular caliber so that people would know what kind of caliber it is... That make sense?

Gun load master,
How do I go about geting you the story when I write It?

The 15mm cf is an overshot honestly, a black powder scarce antique French and little known oddball from 1890. For the record, an old Eleys' Cartridges advertisement listed a 15M (mm) pinfire, around 1886. Did these guys have fun or what?
You'll have to draw a line somewhere and keep guys like me under control :) .
The "11mm" Montenegrin/Gasser are a confusing group of relic calibers, if only because shooters are not ctges collectors and don't realise they were several different rounds.
(Helllp! My chambers are not standard....! Right..., a bunch of these guns were made in Belgium too..... The montenegrin prince, who happened to represent the Gasser Company..., decreed that every militia member had to carry full-time; the militia actually covered every male adult ... can you believe that? )
So we had a 11.5x36 (.444) bottleneck around 1900,
a 11.4x17.5 (?),
a 11.3x33 to 37 (.454, first Austrian Gasser service round, 1870) ,
a 11.2x29 (.448, 2nd Gasser Austrian service round, 1882),
and a 10.8x23.5 (.425); according to my reference*.
The first service round was dropped by the Austrians because its dimensions were similar to those of the 11.5 Werder, 50% more powerful ... accidents happened..
If you decide to add them to the list, I would suggest one single entry with warning.
The guns do come up regularly on auction sites:

here's a list of old calibers (no sight of the Gasser/Mont.) :

PS: There's also the quite popular .400 Corbon; I'd like to get a 1911 bbl in that caliber this year, but where in Canada am I going to find it ????
Lot's of good references to calibers there... I will keep the list I got right now as a default, then as people say they have a load for an unlisted caliber. I'll just add it at that time..Quote:
