    156 eol 6.5 saum

    Wrote a blurb phone died lost it so in brief here qe are ..

    After what felt like forever got a load going was simple in the end user error and some helpfull advice from @The Claw showed me i was 100 thou off . Bit of crap in throat gave me a false "by feel" touch on lands . Up to 20 thou off and were away laughing . 3 shot groups this time as brass is running low with all the tests. Mainly unfired rounds i knew wouldnt work after strings of rubbish


    156eol
    10 ES
    3009FPS AV
    .175 3 shot group

    Im having issues iv never had about drag and drop photos so might take me a day for the proof

    Good to hear you got it sorted mate

    What powder are you running? And what overall length did they come out at? Thinking of trying some in my PRC if they are going to mag feed OK

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    Ran the 156 in the prc today in front of 56.5 of rl26 avg 2876 and es of 4.5 with no pressure out of 20 inch. They were how ever jammed into the lands. I think 2900 fps with decent accuracy may be achievable.
    Would be interested to hear if anyone has any terminal Ballistic reports on them
