Thread: 6.5prc

Got mine out for a ladder test today, only looking at speeds and pressure today, no groups shot.

First up was 147 ELD-M and AR 2217 in Norma brass.

58.5 2704 2661
58 2629 2624
57.5 2619 2661
57 2578 2624
56.5 2554 2554
56 2539 2478
55 2510

No pressure at 58.5 but I think it'll be close, might be able to get up to 59.5 or 60 but I don't think it's worth it at the moment.

Next up was 147 ELD-M again but with Superformance, Norma brass again.

52 2515
53 2710
54 2721
55 2766 2777
55.5 2812, heavy bolt lift only shot 1.
56 did not shoot

I was surprised at how quick the speed picked up with this one. Still pretty slow considering but I'm only up to 49 shots down the tube so hopefully will speed up in time. Next I'll see what the groups look like at 55 grains of Superformance and play with seating depth accordingly.

This Norma brass is super soft, I sized them for a firm fit and just chambering them scuffs the case head.
