150 ABLR Journey

[FLHunter87]

working on a new bullet for hunting and I picked this one. I’ve had ok results so far. Initial tests were ok with H1000 but velocities were really low so I kept going up. Ended up at 57.6 H1000 at 2909 with an ES of 7. Shoots about 3/4”. I also did some testing with RL26 today. Groups were really good all .5” or smaller but ES was not great at all like high 30s and 40s. I’m definitely going after the H1000 right now to see if I can get that smaller. I might revisit the RL26 and see if I missed something on my last session. 2 shots were 11 FPS difference and the 3rd was 47 off, so maybe I missed something during reloading and velocity for that outside of the high was 2850. We shall see. Hoping I can get one load soon. Browning X Bolt Pro 6.5 PRC.

Playing with the same bullet with the 6.5PRC. I'm using H1000 and H4831sc. So far having better results with velocity using the 4831, but only loaded 6 test groups so far.

Definitely report back. Whether message or comment. Definitely interested in what you find. I don’t have 4831. I do have 565, Retumbo, 7828, RL 22, and Magnum to also try. I may skip the 26 and go for Magnum if I can get the H1000 1/2” or smaller.
