I think it has been mentioned but Im a bit slow so keep it commin.

different posture and john was slimmer from memory .....................jugs on:thumbsup:
I doubt the amax will hang together tho at those speeds. Will prob need to shoot GS custom bullets to get max velocitys from it, and a fast twist will hold it back.
i see i see, what speeds do you reckon you will get? isnt there like a maximum possible speed that powder burns or something, somewhere around 5200fps?
I'm sure it won't be up that fast mate. I really don't know. Ill find out once I've done it. Like others have said tho sometimes big cases on small bullets won't get the speeds you expect so well have to wait and see.
Never backed down from anything important in my life. Never will. Your still posturing and pissing though? This is simply not important. It's the Internet. It's stupid.
You were trying to be the man insinuating I am doing something wrong or dangerous by using the powder I do. I can't see the point in arguing about it as it is working for me, and others I know with the same cal.
End of story.

Go back through and read what I said again Dave. I never said you or anyone else was doing anything wrong or dangerous. I thought I spelt out pretty well that it was MY view on it.
I still believe its better to run a bigger chambering at lower pressure using conventional powder to achieve your desired velocity. However I don't always live by that rule myself and sometimes I use double base powders ect, however I prefer not to.
90gr Bergers. Why have all that case capacity and run light bullets. You can still try them in it for shits and giggels

+1.
My 1-7 twist 22-243 shoots the 90 Bergers at 3100-3200 happily until the barrel gets hot, .552 G1 BC.
I can run them at 3300 with a powder change but the projectiles don't like it & say only 50-60% will get to the target even when it's cold/warm.
I haven't bothered running them that hard apart from testing even though it is blindly accurate with either load.
I prefer that the projectile gets to the target in one piece :)
My fast twist one would put the 30 Bergers out at 5100+ & 50s out at 4100+, when I improved it there was very little increase in speed :oh noes:
that sounds like the conversation I had with mitch maxberry bullets he was sending down range were turining into grey clouds and not making it to target
pushing the amaxes that fast surely would cause nothing but bullet surface blow ups right?
6.8x63AI
Then just wait on the new high BC accubonds coming out
how boring I am, this I know
That's why there is no point using a fast twist barrel. I thought the whole point of making the 223saum is to max out the speed and those heavy projectiles require fast twists which vaporize the bullet at high speeds.
I think ill use 60gr GS customs if I can get any. Ill have to find out what twist they require. Any body know?
I guess it depends how far you want to shoot.
Those 90s are still very accurate past 1200, you just really struggle to see or hear a strike.
I have shot plenty of bunnies pst 750 with it, best is 900 :)
Here is the GS data for the 60 HV
GS CUSTOM BULLETS - Specifications for use
Thanks for that Greg. Looks like I need a 8 twist for those anyway and a 8 twist should be ok with the 90 Berger at those speeds if I'm lucky.
I tried the 90 Begers in one of my extra long throated 22 Terminators, the 1-8 wouldn't stabilise them at 2825 fps, you might get lucky ?
I have found you need truck loads more speed to try to compensate for not enough twist, it is easy to work out the projectile RPM.
Luckily very barrel is different :)
for fucks sake, another thread trolled and now off topic to death. Was interested to see more debate of the 6,5s...
Debate what? There was a couple of pages of 6.5 that covered pretty much all the options that at the end of the day are all the same. ( poke a 6.5 projectile out fast enough to kill stuff)

go start your own thread if you want to talk about other shit then
dude the question was, new project, what to do?
He got a shitload of options, reasons for and against ect.
then we had the bonus of LR putting his hand up to make the most impratical but awesome gun out that will probably break some speed records and will sure as hell be rather unique, pretty interesting thread if you ask me
Hell even got a bit of wednesday night drama, better than whats on tv and facebook :thumbsup:
As above

There is also another nz forum where they are really anal about thread drift. And being pc. And politics .
Fish and hunt, go check it out.

Don't know if you looked there lately but runs smoothly and good info been provided. . .
Anyway turned an sized down a case, pushed last bush down to far and flatted the shoulder back a little.
22 RSAUM an 243ai as size as well. Seated with a 62gr swift for photo

Looks mean
I went and had a look a while ago and they have changed the lay out and i can't work it anymore

It may well be a fail but well give it a shot. Give me something to play with while I find out if it will work well or not.
Anyone know the comparative case capacity of the 22-243 vs a standard 22-250?
6.5x57ai. That be smokin' and classy as well
