What about that RL19 stuff? that can give better velocity apparently.

Nah, I've never tried any powder other than ADI, as its the only stuff that I can easily get my hands on locally.

To revisit this, ended up with 120gn pro hunters doing 2600fps groups are an honest .25-.5". I've only shot reds to 70m and fallow at 30m but it drops them like a sack of spuds. Range finder binos on...

Thanks boys. Will have another go this weekend

You in taupo Maca?

gimp Pointer Heres something thats annoying, Went back to the range today, and on 3 different loads I shot 2 bullets in the same hole (like .1" off each other) and then there...

In this group there is 6 shots, the way the FPS read out was two where slow (low 2500's - lower left) with 44gns of 2209 then there 4 "faster" ones from 2570 - 2650 (where I wanted to be) the main...

At the range right now doing a ladder test with 120 pro hunters, the things are fucking one holing across a 2gn powder difference!!! Pics to follow

My thoughts too. I used to run 140's amax and corelokts for that reason but I've decided to run just one bullet now for everything hence the 120 sp prohunters. Idea is 1000ftlb at 400m and I will be...

gimp, I ended up getting 3050 with the 100's with no pressure signs 51 grns of 2209 group was 2/3'rds of an inch :D

I'm trying some 120 pro hunters as I can't get hot cors for love or money.

I forgot to add, the amax's were doing 2720 before the chop.

My chrony turned up so headed to the range.
140 Amax Lapua brass CCI primer 45.9gn 2209= 2600fps on the button
140 corelokt Remington brass CCI primer 45gn 2209 = 2450fps


Beavis

The 140gn Amax and Corelokt rounds I've loaded shoot in perfectly the same POI, I don't have my chrony any more so need to pick one up or borrow the N.I one.

Here it is with 4" taken off the end...

I can back this up, I actually checked my load data, my loads have been doing 2720 fps in their current state 140gn Amax
I've shot 10+ deer, reds, fallow & sika they have all dropped on the spot....

Thats him. Yep he owns Custom Cartridges

Just dropped the rifle off at Mark here in Taupo.
Getting 100mm taken off the end.

I hunt with my dog and the wife. I don't want to be deaf at 50
Plus a suppressor is like 400$ fitted. It's not break the bank material and if it pretects theirs and my hearing its a bargain.

Everyone here has good points. dogmatix yeah I know I should have kept that one, would have looked great short and can'd - I am really thinking I will lob her to twenty inches which leaves room in...

Cheers for you help so far guys.
I'm in half a mind to chop to 20" which would leave room in the gun cab for a bush pig such as the Marlin 45-70 Guide Gun that I have a hard on for. That way I have...

I've done a bit of a search but can only find relevance to target shooting.
I've got a DPT can to stick on my T3, I would ideally like to keep the same OAL of the rifle but that would mean a chop to...
