Thanks for that capacity data. That gives me a bit of perspective and I've always kind of liked having something a little different. I'll do some reading this evening and see if I can figure a reamer configuration out.
Isn't that pretty dang cool. It's really amazing how far bullet technology...
My old PRC had the Unknown Munitions +P throat in it and was also a 22" barrel. I'm not expecting to get the same speed out of a normal 7 PRC. I was running the 180 VLD at 2940 and the 175 ABLR at 2960. I hunt anywhere from 700' to 8,000'.
I think were tracking along the same line of thought.
I shoot all the time at the range on the farm out to 1,200. In reality though, I don't think I've ever shot a big game animal over 700, and I can count on one hand the number of animals I've taken over 600. At this point how far I'm...
I took a long look at the 7 Mashburn! I know a few guys that really like them as well.
I looked at going that route as well! Left 28N, Center 300 PRC, Right 7PRC. I thought it looked really close to the 28N but I couldn't find much info about it on the web. I kind of really like the idea of...
I've had both a 28N and a 7PRC. The 7PRC was a lighter rifle with a 22" tube and was running a suppressor on it. The 28N was really heavy and no fun to pack around in the woods. I've now shot out the 7PRC and am literally losing sleep at night trying to figure out if I go back to a 22" 7 PRC, or...
I did an accidental experiment with this a few weeks ago. I had a good load for my 22CM pushing a 77gr TMK with a BR2. I loaded up 50 more and accidentally used a 210M. I had developed a load that consistently would do a 5 shot .5-.7 MOA group with a bit larger velocity SD than I wanted, but it...
Thats not a bad thought. I certainly wasn't bashing Berger, I shoot a lot of their bullets. It was more of just trying to see if anyone else had ever seen anything like that with any bullet. I hadn't.
There weren't any holes in the paper or the board that were not perfectly round, and I didn't see the grey clouds either.
It shoots the 105 and 108 vld very well. It's not a lack of twist issue.
I made it to town this weekend and happened to find a box of 87gr Vmax and figured they would be...
I started out at 3000 fps and ended up at 3134. I haven't tried it without the can because it shot the 108 really well with the can.
Thanks, Jim. It is a notably shorter bullet. If the bullets are touching the lands, I'm less than a half a bullet diameter of bullet shank into the neck. I almost...
I won a 20" barreled Christensen chambered in 6CM at a local fundraiser last spring. I'm running a Dead Air Nomad Ti on it and have been shooting the 108 VLD out of it for the last year. Due to the short barrel, I'm only getting about 2900 fps at the accuracy node. It's plenty of fun, but I...
I have ran the 70gr RDF in a 22 Nosler AR. I was getting 3,000 fps out of a 22" tube with CFE 223 (I think). It shot very well all the way out past 700 yards. When I put them into coyotes though, they just pin holed through. I think I shot 5 coyotes before I switched back to the 55gr NBT.
I ran a 270 Weatherby for a while. I had outstanding results with the 140 AB and 7828. I played around with the 150 ABLR with H1000, 7828, and RL-26, I couldn't seem to get it to shoot well. I also played with the RL-26 with the 140 AB. I was able to squeak out a bit more speed, but the 7828...
This has been my experience with the 88 ELDM in the 22CM as well. Went to the 95 SMK and never had an issue. That combo has accounted for several mule deer with some of the most impressive results I have ever seen from any caliber on deer. BUT, I quit using them for deer as half of the coyotes I...
I can't remember where I heard it, but a guy was apparently selling used primers on gunbroker and had a bid of $40 :shock: To me, that is where the line gets crossed. I'm loading up what I can, and thinking about taking up yoga after I run out of primers. :lol:
I ran the 105 VLD in my wifes 6CM. I had it up over 3300 with RL26 out of a 26" tube. RL26 never gave me the groups I wanted though. I switched to H4350 and lights out groups at 3175 fps. I would think that H4350 or RL23 would be great starting points. Best of luck to you!
