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.
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...
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...
For short action mag feeding. I was limited to 2.95 OAL by the mag. For single feeding, I could have gone longer. For the SAAMI chamber, I could have gone to 3.035 (to jam) if I was single feeding. For single feeding or a long action, I would consider a longer free bore than the SAAMI...
When I was shooting the 153gn ATips, the box said 1-7.5 twist minimum. They also published 6.5PRC load data showing velocities of 2950-3050. But if you put those together, it spins faster than their recommended max. I've only shot them in a 6.5 PRC at higher speeds (i.e., 2950 to 3050) in a...
The calculations are the same, the numbers are different. If you find one set of numbers is easier for you to think about than another set, you should do what is easiest for you.
It depends on how you think about it, and whether you will confuse yourself. I shoot MOA and most of the people I shoot with shoot MIL. It doesn't bother me at all, it's pretty easy to do a rough conversions in my head. But it is a little easier if you are shooting the same flavor as people...
I can't give you a direct answer, but here are a couple of data points that might help. I did a straight 1:7 for my 6.5 PRC. I had a problem with 153g ATips blowing up when the barrel got a little worn. Hornady said it was spinning the bullets too fast, but Berger 153.5s (and everything else...
