I run the 195 Berger EOL hybrid out of a Rem 700 26" bbl 7mm Rem Mag at almost 3000 fps from ~71g Retumbo. Longest shot to date 1906 yards. But I also shoot in Colorado, at 6000' ASL, so the factory 9.5" twist doesn't subtract from the stability as much as it would at lower elevations. only ~2%...

I have been shooting a Rem 700 Long Range 26" factory bbl with the 195 Berger Hybrid at 2950 fps... the velocity is higher than I expected, but I have verified with Magnetospeed and with dope. It appears that the new 180 ELD has G7 = .401 / G1= .796, which beats the Berger's .387 / .754...

huh?

No, it's a new Remington 700. Just out of curiosity, what pressure does QL say that book max (47.0) gets?

I was hoping I could convince myself that backing off 0.3 gr would be enough, but I think that's probably not enough... I may end up going down further as you suggest. No need to risk it for a few extra FPS.

I worked up a new load for my 6.5x55 with H4831s, Berger 140gr Hybrids and Hornady 5x fired brass last week at the range. Shooting in the shade and 65 Degree weather, I went from 45.0 grains up to 51.1 with no pressure signs. I knew 51.2 was a hot but fast/accurate load from another reloader, so...

Well, you can get a gunsmith to ream out your bolt face a few thousandths, sand down the case head on the brass a few thousandths, deal with shoddy extraction, or swap out for American brass. I went down the same path with my rifle. The first time I tried to run the lapua brass trough it, the...

EasyGravy, I had a Rem700 .30-06 that I had rechambered for 6.5x55. Long story short, American made (.30-06) bolt faces are not the same size as true 6.5x55 specs. They are a bit smaller. So true 6.5x55 brass will have a tough time fitting a rem bolt face. However, I've found that American...

EasyGravy, My previous load was 4350 with Hornady brass. Did OK overall. I think my load was 45.9gr. Lapua brass didn't fit my bolt face. TeaRex

I worked up a new load today with OCW that ended up being very similar to loads that others have suggested for 140 gr Berger Hybrids and H4831sc. Final load was 50.9 gr of powder, loaded to 2.483" to ogive. Shooting was done from a bipod and rear bag with a 24" bbl and TBAC 30-PS suppressor...

I'd never seen this in one of their boxes before... But I appreciate the message. It was kinda like opening a fortune cookie.

So today I ventured out for my first shooting in Colorado, and my first shooting on public land. I had heard that there was good shooting to be had at Pike National Forest, so I left Denver at 9am today to go shooting. After driving a good ways into the park down Rampart Range Road trying to...

Step 1: pick the rifle back up. I'm glad I was able to help. That was a tough one...lol. Just kidding. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I used 45.9 gr IMR 4350 beneath 140 Hybrids. No sights of pressure, but I never chronograph end it either. RP Rifles in Houston cut my rifle with .199 freebore, 24" bbl. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The renters policy I had included a $2500 limit for firearms and firearm accessories. So scopes, ammo, reloading equipment, ROTC all fell under that limit unless they are separately insured. My brother had ~10guns stolen in a breakin a few years ago. Prob ably $10k worth, and a few family...

In TX, they can mail the silencer to your door, but they have to notify the CLEO, and then wait 7 days after doing so. If you want to pick the silencer up in person, this is not required. It is really just a perk in TX that it can be mailed to you (with a few extra hoops to jump thru).

In my experience with SilencerShop, they were as fast as possible. I did two trust form 4s, the one they shipped to me was at my door 10 days after they received approval, and that included 7days waiting to notify CLEO.
