    Lip at case mouth after resize on 6.5 Swede cases

    I am also using PPU brass and Lee dies for my 6.5 Swede. I have not seen this happen with either my full length sizing die or my collet neck sizing die. My experience is pretty limited as I've only ran 100 pieces of brass through the dies 2-3 times at this point and I can't offer advice on...

    Varget vs. H4350

    This may not be perfectly applicable to the creedmoor, but based on the load data for my 6.5x55, it appears that Varget is better for bullet weights of 120gn and lower, and H4350 is better for bullet weights over 120gn. I have both powders and bullets from 95gn to 143gn (and 147gn soon) and...

    First Post - Could use some help interpreting OCW test results.

    I didn't do that. What I did do was put the hash mark at the 100 yard mark and then while looking through the scope I adjusted it until the target and reticle were both in perfect focus. It ended with the dial at what would be a the 90 yard location. I will try what you suggested the next...

    OK, 'bout time for a chronograph

    I have a Magnetospeed V3 that has been flawless on my rifles and a couple of my pistols using the rail adapter. For my pistols that don't work with it because of a lack of rails, the rails being too short (compact glocks), or the bayonet being too far from the muzzle to reliably pickup the...

    Chuck R. - Thanks. I had read his website and I thought I was following his method pretty closely. My understanding is that the 43.6-44.4 range with the Gameking bullet is textbook what I should be looking for. I will choose the 44.0 load with that bullet and tweak the seating depth to see if...

    Thanks for the advice. I think I will focus on the 44.0 range with all bullets and shoot more rounds per charge for better data. I can't ignore the 43.0 area with the EL-M's and will do some exploring there too, but I plugged in the data of the velocities I THINK I would get from that charge...

    First Post - Could use some help interpreting OCW test results.

    I've been lurking on here for awhile absorbing information and I now have some targets I need help interpreting. All of these were shot in the OCW round robin fashion at 100 yards. Firearm: Howa 1500, 22" sporter barrel, 6.5x55 Swede. Load info: No velocity data at this point. Bullets...
