    How accurate have SP10 been out of the box?

    This is a good question, anyone talk to Seekins about it?

    6.5 Creedmoor 147 Gr ELD-M. RL16, RL26, H4831SC, H4350 Test and Data

    Based on the data EDMJustin provided in this thread I thought I'd try out some RL16 so loaded up ten loads of 5 rounds from 41.2 - 43.0. By the time I got to the max load it was pushing those 147's past 2900 according to my Magspeed Sporter, but the groups were opening up and I was getting some...

    6.5 Creedmoor 147 Gr ELD-M. RL16, RL26, H4831SC, H4350 Test and Data

    I'm sorry I didn't write the results on the target, so you'll have to look below and at my awesome Paint skills. I've been running 44.5g as my load. These are 7 shot groups, BTW. 147g ELDM - 1x Hornady Brass - CCI Primers - H4831SC - .020 off lands. Average Velocity - ES - SD 44.5g 2722 -...

    6.5 Creedmoor 147 Gr ELD-M. RL16, RL26, H4831SC, H4350 Test and Data

    I think it's pretty clear that several of these powders will give good results. I started off with H4350, but when it got scarce I bought a lb of H4831sc, (and then later 16lbs), and that's what I've been using for the last couple years. The rifle is a Badger 2008 action with a 24" target...

    PRS Talk Brake vs Suppressor

    Unfortunately I didn't do my homework properly, and bought the AAC because it was "A good deal". I just bought their combo brake/flash hider QD mount for 1/2 x 28 and will put it on an AR just for fun shooting, as there is not a direct thread option. I'll get a Thunderbeast in 6.5 and it...

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    See I don't mind having a civil discussion about it, but when I receive an ad hominem attack, I tend to push back. What I was referring to is that he was implying that I was not investing in training, which is not the case. Also, there are several guys that shoot these club matches in...

    You told me everything I need to know about you in the first post, no need to double down.

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    That is the goal. I will take that step at some point, but probably next year or later this year. There are usually some sponsored shooters at these club matches, and I try to be the sponge. Everyone I've met at these events has been very helpful...except for one guy that got mad at me for...

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    I'm just shooting club matches at this point. I don't have the free time to devote to the travel for PRS events, and honestly don't feel like I'm ready for that level of competition anyway. I live in Phoenix, there are at least three matches a month within a couple hours driving time, and I...

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    I'm definitely learning techniques for applying the gear. I like the MPA skid, and the Area 419 ARCA/Gamechanger and feel like I can shoot just about any position they throw at me with those and an Atlas Bipod. I've seen people use barricade stops but usually the prop is not sturdy enough to...

    It should be legal. MSRP is $1279.

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    Edit; The blue/yellow target is from the Badger/KRG WT3 rifle, and the red/yellow target is the Tikka. Yeah I hear ya. It's more about positional shooting, and I do have a MPA skid on it, but without an ARCA rail, I'll have to use the bags and or Atlas bipod. I'm doing a one day class at...

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    I have an open rifle and sometimes I use it. I'm real confident in that rifle, it's just the production thing is another challenge for me. The target is seven shot strings, except lower right and that 14 shots.

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    When I shoot for Chrono, I use 10 round strings and it does seem to open up a bit. Also I was using an AAC can, but that made the heat soak worse, so have gone back to a brake. This is a target from load development, (PoA is at the top of each diamond).

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    I'm at that point where every match I shoot (1-2 a month), I feel like I'm getting better. The people I'm shooting with are very helpful, and I try to get on different squads so I can see as many techniques as possible. I'm a gear-hound, always have been, whether it's skiing, or MTB, or 4WD...

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    I am reloading. Using Hornady 140g ELD M pills, in Hornady (for now) brass, and H4831sc powder. Just got a jug of RL16 so will work up some loads for that. And yeah, I guess I'm expecting too much out of a mass produced rifle, especially with a fairly light contour barrel.

    PRS Talk Production rifle choices in 6.5CM

    I am new to this competition thing as I shot my first match less than a year ago, but I'm hooked. I've got a really good shooting Razor/Badger/Krieger/KRG chassis rifle, but those open guys are kicking my ass, and I want to to place better and bought a Tikka T3x CTR in 6.5CM to shoot in...
