Thanks for the offer. Let's put a pin in that. I'll do another one or two tests and the best load can go into a primer shootout.

Round 2... 25.6gn Benchmark 2 Skipped the control group with virgin brass, as the first round showed very little difference between new and fireformed (all else being equal)... Plus I was feeling...

Shall apply some graphite to the necks for the brushed cases too.

Yep, everything's pretty similar. With those Nosler bullets being quite long, seating them out to 2.350" actually gets them pretty close to the rifling. I am going to try the nylon brush as per...

There's an old doco on YT called deadly weapons, firearms and firepower. Towards the end of part 3 here (https://youtu.be/QlTSS-WFpkg) he does some brush testing and everything fairs pretty similarly.

I'm getting 2930 with 147's in a 25.5" barrel. Super mild load of AR2217 (to hopefully extend the barrel life) and a CCI 250. Plenty of room to push harder. Have tried Re26 and there's a nice load...

The crosshair on the Nikon currently mounted to my 223 is quite thick and pretty much obscures those dots. I used the BDC to aim at the dots below, so blowing out the aiming point was not an issue....

There's also a slow mo guys video where a D20 artillery gun gets significantly deflected by a watermelon (https://youtu.be/xpJ8EoGmLuE).

I will post up the numbers so we can all see how much of a difference it does or doesn't make. But let's not assume I haven't already done it for my testing so far.

My "heavy hitting" 223 load is sweet as. TMK's over AR2206H with Lapua brass and Federal primers goes great and I get an ES of about 20 past a labradar and it really lets me stretch the 223 out. I've...

How far do you shoot? It's good to anchor goats to avoid the death screams. I found my 1:12 really started struggling to do that past 200m because the light bullets are really slowing down. 1:8...
