Your welcome! I thought it might help the PD shooters with their swifts and short mags.

I built it on a TC encore platform, so it is pretty easy to take in and out, but it should feed into a bolt gun fairly easy also. It runs on 2- D batteries. I got the idea from keeping crappie shiners alive on hot days!

I thought some of you might get a kick out of this! It really helps keep the barrel cooler on my 225 viper. I usually chamber it for 2-3 minutes between shots at the range. normal old walmart bait bubbler. drilled the primer pocket out on one of my old cases, and shoved the air hose in all...

Hello all! I have a cartridge that is similar to the 22-6mm rem. It is .176 longer case than the 22-6. Needless to say, it likes powders in the RL22 burn rate. I was just wondering if the vvn560 might give more velocity/ better accuracy than RL22. Thanks for any replies.

Finally got my 22 project finished. Always wanted to build a high power 22 for hunting. Had a 220 swift at one time. Shot several deer with it, but pretty meesy. Anyway, i thought the wssm was impressive when it came out, but many negatives came from it early, so i never got one. Now...

Yes, it will be a scorcher. Unless i like what i see, then i will nitride the barrel, and my son will wonder where i got the brass to make it after im gone.

Im fixin to build a 22 that will beat most with 70-80 gr bullets! Will reply later....

By the way, my 6.5 hi-power.

Guys, i never in my wildest dreams knew what you guys have gone through with load dev. I know now!! The best powder ive found so far is h4350. I am getting 1moa accuracy at 100 yds w/o a sled at 3,600 fps with slight pressure showing. That cci 250 took the pressure curve out of the h100v...

Read an article recently about neck tension. In that article, they talked about neck wall thickness. They say that a case with .014-.015 neck thickness can actually have more "bullet grip" at .001 neck tension, than a case with .011-.012 neck walls, with .003 neck tension. I can drop one of...

I took a bullet and pushed it into one of my fired cases, it didnt just fall down in the case, but i pushed it through with little effort.

When i first bored this chamber out, i used P.O.'s method for chamber depth measurement, and set headspace at +.004 so it would chamber tight when fireforming. It was too much, as i had a "jelly filled donut". I pulled the barrel and took it down to .001, and that got rid of it, so no donut...

P.s. The edges of my primers are still rounded, but a crater. May have a weak firing pin return spring.

Thanks, all, for the replies. I miked the 6.5 creedmoor reamer that i used to deepen this chamber at .296 at the neck diameter, so i believe i have adequate relief for neck expansion during firing. When i reloaded my 270 wsm, the bullets seated much easier than this setup. I appreciate the...

Recently, i improved the 6.5x65 RWS cartridge. Basically, blowed shoulders out to 6.5 creedmoor dimensions. For those of you that know, rws brass is VERY STRONG brass. I fireform using 48 gr 4831 with a bullet into the lands. Works pretty well. Anyway, when i started load development, i...

Most of the encore builders wont even touch an encore chamber over .5 base diameter. Thats why i went with the "06" style case. Plus i wanted a 26" barrel in a shorter profile rifle.

The nos will surpass it on velocity with 20 more grains of powder.

Its similar to rich shermans 6.5, but i tried to keep the case pressure down by reducing the shoulder angle. I wanted to neck down a 270 roy, but lots of stress on the encore action doing that.

Yeah, not worried about it. Ive shot it about 150 times figuring things out, but i figure if your you build something that will do it, your gonna have the torch.

Hello gents, i spent the last year working on a cartridge design to duplicate 257 roy performance in a 6.5 mm. Bored out an mgm encore barrel to accomodate the 6.5x65 rws case. I fireform to blow the shoulders out to .462 with the 30 degree angle of the creedmoor. All that is easy, load...
