    Tested 6.5 Creedmoor loads with new magnetospeed.

    As DrMike pointed out accuracy is important and if you plan on shooting long range be it Game or steel the load with the lowest SD will be the most accurate at long range especially if it is also the fastest load as well. You will not notice any difference in brass life or barrel life with...

    6.5 Creedmoor 143 X-Eld Load

    Tried the GM215M primers in my 6.5 Creed using RL26 and HBN coated bullets. The 130 ELD-M bullets seemed to like the Mag primers, ES dropped into the single digits with good groups at 100. The 143 ELD-X bullets ES opened up, strange they would shoot several almost ditto on velocity and then one...

    6.5 Creedmoor 143 X-Eld Load

    I have a 1000 of the Federal GM215M primers coming in to see if I can reduce SD a bit, some of the guys using RL26 say that Mag Primers help, so I decided to go with the Match Large Rifle Primers. They had them at Cabelas split Hazmat with a bud and it cost me $50.00 total for the 1000

    6.5 Creedmoor 143 X-Eld Load

    Yes you can hear it starting to crush, but remember I did test up to 49 gr of it with the same bullet and it fit. Did not have pressure signs at 49 gr but according to QL the velocity of 3054 fps was high. QL shows 70,538 psi to get the speed I was getting with 49 gr. I did see pressure signs...

    6.5 Creedmoor 143 X-Eld Load

    Did a little more testing with RL26 using 143 ELD-X bullets, this time treated with HBN coating. It took about .5 gr more powder to equal velocities but I worked it around the test I had done that showed 48 gr to give me 2999 fps and tight group. Using HBN the results were: 26" barrel, Nosler...

So I should have 10 applications in the drawing next year, but for some reason the VT Fish and Game only has me in for 5 right now and 6 if I( apply...
