Tikka Ctr 6.5 CM load data with eld-x

[GLB]

Building a 6.5 CM in the AR 10 platform. I plan to use the 143 ELD X for load development. I would normally use H4350 for the 6.5 but may try some R26 when I get it built.

I got my loads over the chronograph today. Was 34 degrees so a hot summer day may increase velocity a tad. H4350, 42.0 br2 primers, 143, 2.910" - 15 shot string averaged 2720 FPS in 24" Tikka T3X CTR. Zero pressure signs and I probably could work up to at least 43-43.5, but this load is to accurate to spend time chasing another 100 fps.
