      Take a fire case and before you full size it, put a comparator on the shoulder and find out what the dimension base to the shoulpder at comparator. Set the full length sizing die so that it bumps bak the shoulder .002 " or 2 thousanths. Next measurte your chamber. All chanmbers are not the...

      375 Raptor

      Here you go. So case gauges are great for basically determining if your shoulder is set properly on your sizing die. I the ultimate reminder instance he did not seat the shoulders back far enough and he had problems getting his rounds into battery. To much shoulder push back and your letting...

      6.5 Grendel 123 gr loads AR Comp

      I assume a 24” barrel. If you QL it or GRT it how much pressure do they predict? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      6.5 Grendel 123 gr loads AR Comp

      Yes I get it, the 24” can just get there. Even the 20” can. AR comp has proven to be very accurate. I have loads 123’s and 130 RDF’s which will get you transonic to 1,000 yds from the 24”. Don’t have to go buy a Creedmoor . Although appreciate the input. For real long range work the...

      6.5 Grendel 123 gr loads AR Comp

      So I thought about the dwell time and over gassing issue in the 24" barrel. Read a lot of articles from different blog sites. 6.5 Grendel.com. ARr15.com etc. So, I ordered a set of three tungsten buffer weights. Just like my 308's best solution was a combination of AGB and heavier buffer. I'll...

      6.5 Grendel 123 gr loads AR Comp

      FYI the rifle does have an adjustable gas block, I just have it opened all the way. Next time I go, I will just it and turn it down. A heavier buffer will help as well. Slow cycling down as well. But it’s not an automatic so not much function change and a heavier buffer will mitigate recoil as...

      6.5 Grendel 123 gr loads AR Comp

      Yes. I agree to most of what people have said. There are warm loads and then there is beyond hot which will affect everything. Both from wear and tear and obvious safety concerns. I have believe I found a load data report where someone was using 28.6 gr of ARComp. Which led me down this path...

      6.5 Grendel 123 gr loads AR Comp

      I was blown away with the 2,720 velocity for a 123. I guess if you did not care about the brass, and it gruoped it would be a killer load. Sent from my SM-T970 using Tapatalk

      6.5 Grendel 123 gr loads AR Comp

      Went to the indoor range yesterday just to sight in two of my rifles and put some ladder loads down my 264 LBC 24” BHW 1-8 barrel. I had loaded some Hornady 123gr SST’s and some Hornady 129 gr SST’s. 123’s were loaded to COAL of 2.274 and 129’s were 2.296. Ladder for 123’s were 27.0 through...

      6.5 Grendel Hornady 100 gr ELD VT

      I went today and did some load testing for 123 gr SST’s. I was using ARComp in my 24” barrel. With 28.8 gr I got 2,720 fps. A little hot but 28.2 gave me 2,675 So I’ll be hovering some load +/- .2 grains As for the 100 ELD VT’s I want to get a hundred rounds down the tube. As it is a new...
