    That's a 6x47 Lapua, based on the 6.5 x 47 Lapua case. The 6.5x45 is based on a 223 case isn't it?

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    Those Barnes are seated well out. How do. Deep throat to your chamber. Impressive rig.

    Running 62gr Barnes TSX in our WSSM but ya gotta seat them deep. Kills everything it is pointed at very dead. Never tried A Max. Your rig seems well balanced. Top effort.
