    Bergara BMP?

    The hornady 140grn bthp shoots the best for me in my bergara bmp and rpr both in 6.5cm. I've tried hornady eld match and berger hybrid and still the bthp works best. All rifles, shooters, and hand loads differ so in my opinion try different things till you find one your rifle and you like. Funny...

    Tikka tac1 or Bergara bmp in 6.5 cr

    I know this post is several months old, but i have the bergara bmp. I love it. Still working on finding the best load, but so far hornady bthp 140 grn with varget powder is great. Even loads with different powders, the hornady 140 grn bthp still working better than the eld match, and berger hybrid.

    Bergara BMP?

    I have a bmp in 6.5cm Still developing a good load. Vargit powder with hornady eld match are working best so far. A friend has good luck with his 308 using vargit powder and berger bullets.

    6.5 creedmore reload problems

    6.5 creedmore reload problems

    Ok I'll do that and not crimp. Next question is can i save the cases I've already screwed up if i start over with them? Rookie mistake on my part, but i prepped extra cases before finding out i had a problem.

    6.5 creedmore reload problems

    Yes i crimped them, and and after putting a micrometer on them it looks like i crushed the shoulder. Its .15 larger than factory ammo. So even it it has a cannelure i shouldn't crimp?

    6.5 creedmore reload problems

    I'll check for any catch points. They are polymer. I checke feed problem with 5 different mags. Same brand but some are 5 rounds rest are ten rounds. Same problem with all. Its a bergara so only takes one style mag.

At the closest point of body to shoulder is .15 wider in diameter than a factory round. Not sure what i did. Either i didn't size right or i have a...
