    6.5 Creedmoor ELDX's loads for Sako

    Ironically after some selling for unicorn gold dust money I have a few of these to put into my BlackWolf Sako 85, but I'm not wanting to waste the fuckers mucking around

    Does anyone have a primo 143 eldx 6.5 Creedmoor load for a Sako - tikka ( running Norma brass )

    She shoots the Horny Precision ammo very well


    Chur Chur




    PS - No piss take load data please, I'm not that much of a cunt lol
    Shoot it, root it & then BBQ it !!!

    Yeh 42.7 for me using 2209/ Norma and Lapua brass- and it’s accurate and not hot (in mine).
    I use R16 now because of better availability over R26 and it’s also boringly accurate and fast.
