   Jhon liked post by Magnetite On thread : Dial Caliper recommendations?

   If you're on a budget keep an eye out for some second hand Mitutoyo dial calipers. Then find a friend or machine shop with some gauge blocks to verify their accuracy. I did and couldn't be happier.

   Nah all the digital one, well as best I know, can be switched between metric and imperial. Actually a useful feature if you want to convert a measurement you have just made. The dial ones you buy...

   Probably varies by caliber but I’ve had poor results on game with target grade JP’s eg smks. In your plastic tip game pills I’m sure there is a bigger hp and differently tapered jacket than in...

   I know it's not the 6,5x55 [of which I have and load for two] but I use Labelled H1000 = 2217 for the 6.5 06. Add's to the thread ? Yes ? :thumbs:

   Before I bought a meplat trimmer I used the 'twist drill method' to expand the open tip SMKs. Use a 1.5mm drill and you should find the SMKs expand enough to be effective on game.

   My experience is that the Sierra Match Kings are inconsistent on game animals with some expanding and others penciling through. The cause of their inconsistent terminal ballistic behavior appears to...

   It has long been known that bullets with the centre of gravity further back are more stable and hence, more accurate. There are various ways of achieving this, probably the aluminium (or compressed...

   Q1 if you look at almost all of the Berger target projectiles in use at the top end of F-class comps, those are hollow points. The jackets on those projectiles differ from the jackets on hunting...

    All the plastic tipped bullets are just hollowpoints of one design or another with a tip bunged on to make then uniform, so most of us are shooting hollowpoints.

    My experience with bthp on game are that they pencil through unless you hit bone, then they fairly explode. Shooting hares and magpies with the 6.5 creedmoor 123gr L scenar showed the above. Hares...

    All target pills are just fine on varmint and small game. I use the Eld-m on Tahr out to 680yds (longest) so if you hit them right they work just fine. Apparently the match rounds have a tendency to...

    A hollow point is easier and cheaper to make than a perfect tip, and a tip that isn't perfect will reduce accuracy. I read somewhere years ago that a hollow point effectively creates it's own tip of...

    When I had a T3 a few years back I worked up a load with 2217 behind the 140gr amax. Was very accurate and from memory was around the 2700-2750fps mark? Worked up to 50grains or so again from memory...
