    6.5 mm 143gr ELD-X for 123gr AMax

    Anyone have 20-30 123 Amax to swap?

    I have some 130 scirocco as well if that suits.

    Just wanna see what the 123 goes like in my rifle.

    We were looking at that round earlier this week eh. On what I put through QL and AB the 123 or 120 Amax stood well ahead of most contenders out of the 6.5mm projectiles. The scenar was the only other one in the running. What powder will you try R93?

    Not sure yet. I have a few ideas and different sorts of powders.
    I have never tried 120-123 projectiles in my Ackley so it is pretty much just to satisfy my curiosity.
