    With 160's I was able to get 2750 using Reloder 16 from a 20" barrel. With ADI powder, a 165gr bullet, and a shorter barrel, I echo what everyone else is saying: those speeds sound about right. ...

    There's no big hollowpoint, polymer tip, or exposed lead to start them off expanding reliably. So they can pencil through stuff. The jackets are pretty thin too. So if they do start to expand,...

    Fisherman liked post by Pommy On thread : 6.5 v 7mm
    I think the difference is immaterial so long as you stick the bullet in the right place. But a 6.5mm projectile has an area of 0.35cm2 whilst 7mm is 0.41cm2. That's a 17% increase in the size of the...
