I believe either Fusion or GD. If I had to guess I'd be Fusion.

In the spirit of Jake's deal with his vendor I'm going to keep my mouth zipped from this point on.

You get some great stuff Jake. Thanks for being an awesome vendor.

This!! Always looking forward to my next order...even when I haven't loaded what I already have on hand.

I think I'll be keeping quite a few of these 64gr bullets for HD/SD. I need to work up some loads.

Speaking of working up loads, I'm using Hodgdon CFE223, and they don't list anything in 64gr, but they do have a 63gr SIE SP, can I start with the minimum for that bullet or should I go a little higher?

1 Gr isn't enough to worry about IMO. Start low, work up.

Hey, I got my bullets really quick and I think I know what kind they are. Looks great!
Thanks

Chefjeff1,
What do you think they are? I bought 500 as soon as I saw them. Once in my hand, I inspected, and I think Speer.

You guys are free to say what you think they are. I am the only one who can't say one way or the other. Everyone else is more than welcome to publish their findings.

The cannelure is the trick here.

Look very closely.

Post #26 combined with jakes post gives you the answer.

Well curiosity got the best of me, I just ordered 100 of these. I WILL TEST A COUPLE IN THE WAX MEDIA. After I work up a load for my bushy AR . Anxious to see how much weight retention they have.

I got my 1,000, time to load some up, TAC, H335, W748, see what works!

For people who have not ordered from RMR before don't forget Jake offers THR members a 5% discount with the discount code. Thehighroad5 and your screen name. (hope is hasn't changed lately)

RMR has great products and is great to do business with.

fast

Wow, ordered on tue, arrived on Friday. Nice heavy gauge plastic envelope, no apparent damage to the bullets. Good job Jake!

It's raining so no garden work today, can get to loading right now.

AND a personal thank you card/window decal!

I have a lb of TAC on the shelf. If possible post up some charge weights.

 

[longdayjake]

I use 25 to 25.5 grains of tac for a 62 grain bullet. That is a 5.56 pressure load so be aware that it is above max for a .223 chamber.

 

[AnselHazen]

Thank you Jake. Would be mostly for my own S&W M&P15. I have a neighbor who just got a 222 Rem at an auction so I'm also thinking it could be fun to work up a nice coyote/fox load with some of these for him too.

 

[Walkalong]

Check the barrel twist on the .222 before you load up 64 Gr bullets for it. It's likely too slow.

 

[AnselHazen]

I saw 222 loads in Hodgdon's magazine and the Lyman book for 60gr and 63 gr.

But yes the twist must be checked.
