   My two favourite projectiles have been 107 tmk's and 100gr nosler bt's. Dabbled with heavier. But even with a longer barrel, the BC of 123 and 130 elds didn't make up for the much lower muzzle...

   It's taken a while, but the superlite bottom metals are coming off the machine. These ones will take the factory mags. The likelihood of doing a blind version is low for now. I've found that the...

   I was using 8208 and 123 Eldms. Velocity 2400 from a 16” I tried cfe223 but accuracy was better with the 8208. Dropped deer at 150y but didn’t try further out. Sold the rifle when I needed cash, now...

    123 ELDM and Lever Evolution. Getting 2300 out of a 12" barrel, and still some case capacity left to push for more. What I did find is that most of the published loads are pretty weak, and designed...

    Just a side note: rifles with barrels 16" or less are often referred to as "pistols" in the us (has something to do with their legislation afaik)... so might pay to look for "pistol load data"...

    Easy as. No different than using brass. I use a little more lube, that's all. Just put the x39 case through the 6.5 die to take it down in diameter. The lengths & other dimensions are basically the...
