I just bought this out of Eurooptic but decided to stay with my 22 ARC.
Tikka T3X, 223, 16 inch, factory threaded 5/8x24, I replaced stock with Stockies carbon VG, Trigger tech straight trigger, and MTN tactical Mag, BM, shroud and knob. Rifle has 20 rounds through it. Also UM...
Well I just got a 20 inch 6 PRC 2 days ago, mostly went PRC because Lapua brass. I loaded 115 DTACS NR and got to 3195 FPS with very mild pressure signs and RL 26z
Loading some 108 Bergers and H1000 as they expand a bit faster that the DTACS for small TX deer.
Im using ADG 270 WSM brass, COAL 3.035. I can probably push it harder but not sure I want to. Groups were better in the higher load charges which is not usual for me BTW.
Today I did a ladder with 134s and N570, 62.0 gr to 68.0 gr, 26 inch barrel, 1:7.5.
Started at 2990 and ended at 3263, mild ejector mark and flat primer, no bolt lift or anything else. I’m gonna probably stay at 66.5 gr at around 3150 not to trash the brass if the load shoots.
I hope the OP doesn’t find my posts as an intrusion, did a ladder today with H1000, Fed 215 M, from 60-63.5 gr and 134s. Never hit pressure, started at 2960 with 60 gr and ended at 3115 from a 26 inch barrel. I have room to go but I’ll switch to N570 and let it rip.
More to come.
Well this was a timely find, I just received my 25-300 WSM and started load development. It’s build on a defiance XM+ and a 26 inch C6 Barrel. My GS reamer has a neck 0.292 and my loaded round was 0.291 so I got pressure early with 62 gr N568. I’m using a reading 25-300 WSM die and 270 wsm ADG...
Selling a range used sig kilo 10k with AB, Gen I, box, wind meter and bino harness from Sig, couldn't find the manual but it's on line anyway. These are in pristine condition, selling because I upgraded to Gen 2s.
Asking $1100 TYD.
Im not doubting your experience, it has not been mine in terms of shot range and performance at least in NA game, and for the record I hate Barnes X too.
It’s funny how this question generates polarizing opinions. I’ve shot no less than 30 animals, from
Black buck to elk with Berger bullets, never had an issue. Are there issues, sure, like every other brand out there. I’ve seen issues with TTSX, and accubonds, that doesn’t mean they are bad...
I’ve used the 147s on my 7 SAUM over H4350, 20 inch barrel at 2950. I shot 2 white tail deer in TX last season, devastating performances. Shot distance 200 yards and change. They shoot really good in my rifle. I also tried the 201 AB on a 300 NMI, could not get them to shoot less than MOA and...
You can throw on the Hornady and trickle to either FX or Creedmoor sports, the only reason y sold my CM was to go to auto trickler. You can use a Bean scale I guess, it just wasn’t my thing
