So finally, a conclusion to the tests. Got out yesterday and shot the last 6 I had of the 220 ELD-X. A charge of 45 grains of Belmont 760 is where I finished up with two shots averaging 2180fps...

Right?! I think I'll use the last 6 to see how far I can crank them up and maybe get a box of them at some point later down the track. It's good to know that this rifle will shoot just about anything...

It's very hard to argue with Eric's results. I watched his video about neck sizing vs full length sizing and thought, alright I'll give it a go. It made a bit of a difference. These are two 3 shot...

I'm going to have to get creative with the funding, but I'm goin to keep the suppressor as well ha ha. Can anyone recommend someone around the lower Manawatu/wellington region to fit one?
