Range Report 6.5x47 with 140s

[distantfoe]

What velocities are you achieving with your 6.5x47 using 140gr bullets? Are you running a bushed firing pin, how long of barrel, load, etc.?

Re: 6.5x47 with 140s

Bushing firing pin may not be required unless you plan on running HOT loads

i SHOOT 41.5GR h4350 UNDER 130gr unbushed no issue

Mostly i shoot 130`s better suited IMHO
Thou i did try some 140 2900 is pert easy to do 28" barrel

I tried several nuclear loads in my Surgeon and had no primer issues. I primarily shoot 120-130gr bullets.
