Right now the only thing holding the rifle back is me. Building up the brass so I'll soon be able to start developing loads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What twist is your rifle? They have BERGER 6.5MM 144 GR LONG RANGE HYBRID 1:8" TWIST, TARGET BULLET / 100 BOX $104.99(US$78) At 140gr they have BERGER 6.5MM 140 GR MATCH LR BT, TARGET BULLET / 100 BOX $97.99(US$72.80) They aren't listing 140gr hybrid now so will talk to them on week when they are back. I'll call around to some other scources and get you some prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 8-twist is the most common for these things now, just to handle the heavies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magwa Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Yeah I am 1 in 8 twist and only interested in Berger 140 Grain Hybrids..... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunuckgaucho Posted April 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 !40 gr it is then, I'll put out feelers along with finding out on Saturday what happened to the ones dealer had listed earleier/when more are coming in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 147s are better for 6.5s. I'm just sayin'.... Compare BCs. Run all the math on those projectiles. Your goal is distance, so don't handicap yourself early on, when there might be a better projectile out there. My $0.02. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magwa Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 For the difference in what gains I could get and even if I could find them I will stick with the 140 grain Hybrid and low and behold I found 3 boxes yesterday . I would have to find a new node and charge weight with 147's I just ran this 6 shot string on the chrono and checked my zero I have a match Sunday here is what I got 1. 2975 2.2966 3.2966 4.2966 5.2970 6.2968 ES 9 SD3.6 all in a group of 0.32 that is why I just can not abandon this combination .......

Magwa Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 So any updates are you shooting the new baby? are you looking for components ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunuckgaucho Posted June 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 Works been pretty busy last month and a bit, I'll get out this Sunday. Still shooting factory ammo to get brass. Componetsaren't an issue, bullets readily avalible and I have powder and primers. The paperwork is filed so soon she'll be able to go south of the 49th( added pistols and some other stuff to the list). Might find myself in Idaho later this summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
