The impact looks cooler???

I get 2500fps with 123gr projies out of my 6.r grendel and they are super accurate.

I only play with ADI powder, I'm past worrying about supply issues.

the PPC is about 10 thou shorter.

Yes it did but a 220 Russian is just a 7.62x39 necked down to 22 cal.

Thanks for the explain Scott, looks and sounds good. What reamer or series of reamers was used ? Did he get one specially ground for this chamber ? I have a spare 30cal barrel in the shed, and I could use my Zastava 7,62x39 action. :homer: Would it be possible to just ream out the original Russian ...

This shows the process 6.5 Grendel Expanded to 30cal neck turned fired loaded 125gr TNT https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200510/5f99abc2255d83dfa86a428a7b9fdfbe.jpg Quickload is suggesting 2850fps worth a 125gr TNT. That is using 38gr as the water capacity which is what the 30 Grendel comes out at...

Other than missing a small primer being added you nailed it. So it could also be a 7.62x39 Improved I guess.

So a skim of the necks almost cleaned them up, gave me 12 thou necks. I only had a 331 bushing so after spring back and 1thou tension the loaded neck was 0.3315 which isn't ideal on a 332 neck chamber. I will get a smaller bushing and see what happens with 2 to 3 thou tension. https://uploads.tapata...

The 125gr Speers should get up into the 2700 to 2900 range so they should be good on non deer sized critters. The rifle I’m testing it out of is a single shot predator, it’s a hunter style stock so it can go both ways.

Hi all, I got to fireform 3 30 ProCal 40 degree cases today. It starts life as a 6.5 grendel and is expanded and improved. The idea is to try and match a 30BR without all the case prep. It needs a neck skim but that's all the prep other than expanding. The 30BR needs to be opened up, shortened and t...

Not a lot of options that I have seen before. Klaus lists 3 different styles but I cant comment as I've never owned a 20cal air rifle. I use H&N 177 pellets in my air pistol and have used the 22cal ones in an air rifle and both shot well. https://www.acme-firearms.com/haendler-natermann-air-pell...

I dont just do it for load development, this is the data from when I ran in the barrel on the 6mm creedmoor. I figured if you are going to fire some rounds you might as well get some data out of it. Don't give me a hard time, I was cleaning after 3 shots and not 1. They are the first 27 shots throug...

So this is how I start load development, is it the best way? probably not but it works for me. I usually shoot at a target at 50m at the same time so I et a short range zero that I can adjust when at longer range. But at 50m you find you get a very good windage zero. I work out a maximum charge and ...

The best one i have seen is a gino at little river. he had a blazer tactical rifle in 338 lap, with a big NF scope (with fuck all elevation) and a BORS. He was shooting at a target at 100m for half a day. After every cease fire he would fire 2-3 shots and then sit down and talk to his mate and drink...

Don't know, there aren't any ranges open for me to test them.

A mate shot's sub MOA at 900y with factory 6.5CM ammo so would think there is a good chance with this stuff.
