Running 38.2gr of Varget.I'm not sure it does anything that my 260 wont do.It's still in load development stages more or less and I really haven't had time to do much testing.

Those are some pretty stout numbers,, 28" tube 142SMK 44.5 H4350 running 2950...I run a 28" Krieger 44.3 H4350 at 2850.Wish I could get another 100fps but it isn't going to happen in this gun. My 22" 6.5x47L is getting 2800fps with the 136gr ScenarL's and a moderate load of Varget.

Same load for me as well. wingzero Might be a stupid question. I'm also thinking of converting a Rem 700 308 to 6Br. Is there a need to bush the firing pin hole? Yes,,send it to gre-tan they can fix you up.

Bob IIRC you probably have a first gen Sendero.

+1 A 8.5 twist will do everything a 8 twist will do.It's whatever you want.

Neck sizing is old school IMO.I use fl bushing dies on everything keeping shoulder bump to minimum.No problems with accuracy or brass life. May want to look into annealing as well.

http://optimalchargeweight.embarqspace.com/ The 60gr load isnt terrible you can tweak the setting depth and probably close it up with some good shooting on your part. If you keep getting those nasty little fliers I would consider bedding the stock down the road.

Can you expand on a few questions.... 1.Is your stock bedded? 2.Is this new brass or fire formed brass? 3.Do you ns or fl size? 4.Is there land marks on your bullets? 5.Do you have a slower burning powder that you could try? 6.What primers are you using?

I use the Bersin and have no complaints.I thought these were no longer produced?

Depends on the headspace of each rifle and how much your setting the shoulder back.If you have one chamber that's max SAAMI spec and one that is min SAAMI spec and your just bumping the shoulder back .001-.002 on the max chamber it may not allow you to close the bolt in a min spec chamber.Clear...

I'm gonna venture to guess it's the load.To light/heavy of a charge weight will cause vertical stringing and your load is LIGHT.Your 4grs under minimum according to Hodgdon for that bullet weight.ES means more than SD unless you have a huge sample group.Go with what your groups on paper/target...

Go with lapua if ya can....Lapua

If your interested in accuracy go 6br,you can shoot the lighter weight bullets not the heavies with your 14 twist.
