H4831SC should work, might be a tad slower than the H4350. RL16 will be faster, but I doubt it will beat H4350 in consistency. Honestly, my experience is that H4350 is about as good as it gets for consistency in that class, so maybe look to other parts of your process for improvements.

Or scrub it clean and shoot a few Lapua foulers yourself so it is ready to go ay the test center.

MDT did not make these. They did have some kind of partnership with the manufacturer, but ended it after a short period.

Measure the volume, i.e., weigh the amount of water fired/unfired will hold. I think you will find that the fired will hold more.

Mine is from when they first started shipping, but it is threaded and I use it in a press.

6 twist for the 50gn bullets

I have what I consider a good load for the 32gn bullets in a standard barrel. I’ve played around with the 50gn bullets and have had o.k., results, but nothing good enough that I would consider it as being finished. This is in a 1:6 twist barrel using the reamer that Cutting Edge published...

IRamshot Enforcer is generally in the right range, but I haven’t tried it. I got good results with Longshot with the 32gn, and HS-6 has been the best I have found for 50gn so far. I have also tried Unique, VVN3N7, VV350, AA9 and Lil Gun at various times. I kind of put my experimenting with...

260 Rem and 6.5 Creed are pretty close in performance. 260 Rem has a bit more case capacity, so you can push a little harder. 6.5 Creed gives you a little more room to work with longer bullets, and is supposed to be slightly more efficient. You can get factory ammo is either, although 6.5...

I’ve had great results from. LRX bullets in 260 Rem and 300 WM. I haven’t tried PVA solids or the LRXs in 6mm.

H4350

ADG virgin 67.1 ADG once fired 68.3

My load is 57.2 of H1000, OAL is about 2.95 (I measure BTO, OAL varies a little). Also a 28” barrel, I guess mine is a bit faster than yours. If yours is a new barrel, it may speed up. IIRC, mine picked up about 100fps from 0 to 200 rounds.

I have 2 7-35 ATACRs and 2 4-32 NX8s. I have the ATACRs on centerfire match guns and the NX8s on rimfire match guns. They are both great scopes. The ATACR is significantly heavier/bulkier but has wider FOV. The FOV isn't as important for rimfire, and the lighter weight is nice for the...

Bartlein will do fast twist 22RF barrels
