    I’m thinking back to a thread I read somewhere; another site. The contributor there reckoned the 147 could not be fully potentialised for reason mentioned in my original comment. Thinking back again, he suggested the 147 was more suited to the 6.5x284. I discarded the reference as I’m happy with the 143 eld-x and 139 Lapua Scenar pills and use them exclusively. Give the 147’s a go if so inclined.

    The contributor in question is incorrect.

    All good. As stated, I love my 143’s and 139’s.
