    7 saum and 165 gamechangers

    Hi, anyone tried this combo? I have R26, Norma brass, fed primers, 165 Sierra gamechangers. What’s the secret sauce?

    Have just started loading gamechangers using 2217 as that's what I have - so can't help with the "sauce" but gee so far so good group wise - first time at the range shot 4 different loads groups averaged O.55"

    In my rifle a significant improvement on 175 EDL-X

    They seem pretty easy to tune.
    Shut up, get out & start pushing!

    No good for me. Grouped like poos. 150 ballistic tip is the one I’m using. Shame they don’t make a 160 bt.

    A bit irrelevent to your question I spose.
    but.
    I settled on 59gr re17 as most accurate (started at 57gr) under 160gr Accubonds.
    Have a chrono now so be interesting to see what their doing..
    20" barrel.
