Alternate to Berger 140 hybrids (6.5)

[Alpine 338]

I shot the 142's in my 260 Rem. They worked so well, that I never even tried using the 140 Hybrids, which work great in my 6.5x47L.

I use 140 Grs Nosler Custom Competition HPBT with decent results.

Eurooptic, Optics Planet, Creedmoor Sports,ect.

CM Sports doesn't have backorder for that product.

Ordered through EuroOptic. Not a fan of being pre-charged for it, but, hopefully I'll have some luck.

Thanks.

Vendors have been getting the Berger 6.5 140 VLD Hunters instock. I bought about 1000 of them in place of the Hybrid Targets.

As of this posting Powder Valley has these instock: https://www.powdervalleyinc.com/product/berger-264-6-5mm-140-gr-hntg-vld/

I did a 20 round test using the same formula that I was using in my 6.5 Creedmoor 140 Berger Hybrid Targets.

H4350
Lapua SRP
205GM Primers
2.220 (-.010 off the lans)
Avg Velocity: 2813
SD: 6.6

100 yard zero is the same as two other loads I use. Groups were pretty well sub moa. Hopefully they do as good out to a mile as the Hybrid does.

So you’re running 75000 PSI and shoot “pretty well sub moa.” Is that supposed to impress us?

No.

So do people like the 144s more or the 153.5?

The 153.5's work great and better than 144's out of my PRC, but I feel they're a bit too heavy for a Creedmoor. Then again, depends on how far you're trying to shoot them and/or which cartridge you're using them in.
