    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.

    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:

    Jhon liked post by Hermitage On thread : Projectile questions for the experts
    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.
