Re: 510 AM test

Lerch,

Richard tells me 1000 gr ULD RBBTs are a possibility!!! I will save those for BJ and you to play with if we make this thing happen!!

Richard and I were talking over the velocity potential of the 1000 gr ULD RBBT and we are both thinking that near 2600 fps may be possible. We will have to see, thats +15,000 ft/lbs of energy!!

On the other end of the spectrum, Richards short baring surface 750 gr ULD RBBTs should easily break our 3000 fps velocity goal. That is also 15,000 ft/lbs of energy!!!

Right now back to work on customer rifles and making bushings so I can get those 338 AM FL dies in my press to give that big girl a go around with sized cases.

Just for S&G I may try to get some of the 647 gr Match Ball bullets and see how fast I can drive them in the 510 AM. The standard BMG will break 3000 fps with them so it may be interesting.

Later,

Kirby Allen(50)
