140 Cutting Edge Lazers

[Ryan Avery]

I thought I would post this up because I can't find much on Cutting Edge bullets, especially on game performance. I might have a deer hunt coming up on private land and the landowner won't let me use lead bullets. So I had Whaley Precision build me a 6.5 SAUM on a long action. Unknown Munitions made up a box of test loads starting at 59 grains of VV 565. The Cutting Edge Lazers have a Sealtite band, basically a bore rider, we didn't really know where we would hit pressure. I worked up to 64 grains with no pressure. The best group was also 64 grains with a velocity of 3100 FPS with a 21" barrel.... Smokin! I plan to shoot a few critters with it. I will post back when I do.

This is my second one. The PRC gets all the love but both of my SAUM'S have shot lights out. AND you can find brass.

Let me know when you decide to do a third and I'll give this one a good home

Next short 6.5 will be a Sherman, adg brass readily available, and less mag box issues..

AND they don’t seem to have as frequent clicker / sticky extraction issues as PRC.

What twist did you go with? Those are some long Mofos.

Very True.

1/7

Any chance they'd stabilize in a 1:7.5?

Pretty sure Daniel on Long Range Only is using a 7.5 on his PRC with no issues.

I took my first deer with a cutting edge bullet. I try to use them where I can, but it did it's job.

Ryan, that thing is only .5 away from being the perfect gun!

sending my tikka away tomorrow to get built into a 7saum with a 20” barrel and throated looooong.

Wound Channel? Pics?

Wound channel was a lot smaller than I expected. It was a lung shot on a doe, both were jello but really no ruined rib meat. Sorry, no pictures though
