Fun Rounds-on-Steel Video

[BigNate]

Some of the chatter in the recent 6.5 CM thread coincided with a buddy posting the video below in a different forum (actually a local car forum that is about 50 of us...).   Anyway - I decided not to clutter that thread with this - but still thought it was cool enough to share...  This is .300WM - Norma brass, RL26 powder, Hornady 225 ELD bullets and cci magnum primers.

Love that bullet trail.

Pretty cool seeing that thing "lob" over to the steel.

The trace is badass - we can still do that here for another month-ish.  Takes humidity for that, and once our humidity goes away, it's WAY harder to see. 

That load components you posted @BigNate - that's close to what I load for mine.  Running the 225 ELD-Ms, but RL-22 powder, with the CCI large rifle magnum primers.  If this guy in the vid is local - you need to bring him out sometime with us.  We'll get him on the mile target with that boomstick.

He lives in the Midwest these days... he gets back here from time to time - if he happens to be out on the weekend of the fall shoot, I'll invite him.  He tends to have cool toys (tools).
