    Prefit match barrels with test target?

    I am not a profit barrel guy but since every rifle is basically a tuning fork and changing the action would change the tune, why would a group shot with another action prove other than that barrel is not a turf on that action? I mean it won’t indicate it will shoot tiny groups on your action...

    Precision Rifle Gear Are 147’s still blowing up?

    That’s before I started shooting them. My experience started five years ago with them. Once I ran out of Scenars and had to find available bullets. I tried the 147’s and they have worked great since in 6.5 Creedmoor. The rifle I push them to 2850 fps has a Bartlien barrel Savage barrels are...

    Precision Rifle Gear Are 147’s still blowing up?

    So in summary Guys running the 147’s in 6.5 Creedmoor report great results Guys running them at 6.5 PRC velocities are having terrible results I bet there is an Hornady Engineer somewhere saying “ I told them the jacket would not hold up at PRC velocities” As to the quality control issue I...

    Precision Rifle Gear Are 147’s still blowing up?

    Precision Rifle Gear Are 147’s still blowing up?

    I saw Berger 155 VLD .30’s blow when pushed through Savage barrel, 1/10 twist at 3250fps but when kept at 3100 or below printed tiny groups so a 1/7 twist could be the reason. You spin any bullet fast enough and it will shed its jacket

    Precision Rifle Gear Are 147’s still blowing up?

    First of all Rob and I have seen about as many rds go down range as anyone on here. I have been sponsored by many companies over the years but never asked or will ask Hornady for a sponsorship so I have no skin to loose in this discussion either way There are lots of great bullets out there. I...

    Precision Rifle Gear Are 147’s still blowing up?

    I have only shot a few thousand of the 147 ELDs but not a single issue. 2850 fps from a 28” barrel. Super consistent. I know Military tested crap out of them and liked them enough to order more than we on SH will probably shoot

    Cole-Tac.. I've got to give these folks credit
