    I forgot how far out the die needs to be to seat 140gn AMAXs (this was a unprimed, case - just trying to get it right, so it did its job I guess )

    The brew for me is lapua brass trimmed to 54.75mm, CCI200 primer, 2209h 43.5gns, 140gn AMAX, OAL 81.1mm (a bit longer than the pic above ), doing 2600fps, and groups around 0.298moa if I do my part. In a tikka T3 with MDT chassis.
    6.5 Beaker

    Named for the inventor and uniquely shaped cartridge.
