Yea plan to run a longer mag as well cheers
Anyone care to share a load for a T3 with the 75gn ELDM 2206h and lapua brass?
My long throated 22” rem mag did just over 3000fps with 162 a max and 2217. 2917fps with RL26 and the 180eldm. Both were over book max work up. As 7mmsaum said 2217 would be your best bet for speed...

Thanks fellas. I’m set on one of the sako prs stocks so I’ll send an email off and see how I go
Has anyone had any dealings with Hitech since Ken has passed? I got onto a guy called John who was handling the administration a few weeks back who said they were still taking orders/operating but...
Do it you won’t regret it. I have a 7mm rem mag I cut down from 26” to 22”. I ended up losing next to no velocity as I just stoked my load up a bit. Have just put a 20” 6.5prc barrel on one of my...
So had a T3 6.5prc barrel fitted to my M595 today and bolt face opened up. Screwed straight on, headspace was a touch long so the gun smith had to set the barrel back 7 thou. So nearly...

Legend thank you
I was wondering if someone wouldn’t mind measuring their 6.5mm/264 insert so I can drill out one of mine that I don’t use to suit my PRC. My older comparator set doesn’t have the 6.5mm/264 bush like...

Got an email from Berger for anyone that is interested. Cheers for the replies

Thanks mate. What oal?
Has anyone got any bergers load data for their 153.5 hybrids in a 6.5prc? I’ve got reloader 26 and 2217 to try. Lapua cases and fed 210 primers
Cheers

Will a Hardys work? I thought they were slightly larger to accomodate their carbon wrapped barrels.
I just used the 1 in 8.75” twist figures list on their BC page including the lower speed ones in BulletFlight and used my magnetospeed velocity figures. It has been spot on to 720m thus far which is...
Scout was awesome. She nailed the point on these two awesome dog and covered the miles!

After 2 days and 30kms we finally got one on the ground.
My assumption probably came from hearing people chit chat flat out on VHF on the lake on a busy day about where their mates are, what the fishing is like, what the chop is like etc. I guess without a...
News to me I’ve done some reading and have learnt a lot thanks for the education apologies for terrible advice
Find the cheapest VHF marine hand helds you can. VHF goes further, round corners where as the UHF cbs are line of sight. VHF marine is citizen band in NZ so you don’t need a radio license. I’ve got...
