yesterday I've tested some load with my AWSM, I've found that N165 91.5 gr is good for me.
No primer sign, no cratering, good case condition after fire.
Primers are FGM 215 M
free bore for me is 92.00 mm and I work .0020 and .0030 off lands.
I've used new lapua case, neck turning ecc ecc
2 different redding bushing .364 and .366 the results are very similar
PVM 08 is the test crono and the distance is only 100 meters, I always use 100 meters for initial load test
the average muzzle velocity was almost the same with a SD very low.
the ATLAS bipod was very stable and after fire I was able to stay on the target
after the test I choose a very small target at 321 meters using the Barrett BORS ...... bang target vaporized...
at the end of march long range test over 1300 meters
