Superformance out of a 24" 30-06 and 155vld will get you 3200fps. Not sure if that's a viable powder in the 300?

I used too, but now just the bushing. I also don't buy into less is more on the interference thing. I'm running 4 to 6 thou interference with much better grouping at distance. To each there own, but I would suggest a test with and without using the mandrel.

Are you selling? PM me if you are, I'm interested

If you like heavier pills? 7-08AI 18.3" barrel 175 Berger Elite Hunter @ 2488fps 1800fps to 631yrds 1600fps to 837yrds

7-08AI 18.3" barrel 150 ELD-X @ 2610fps 1800fps to 616yrds 1600fps to 789yrds

I'm sure they would be like lightning bolts to deer! Just not enough pop for pigs.

Congrats to your son on a well placed shot. I'm running basically the same setup, just out of a 260REM. I'm giving up on the 123 ELD-M for pigs. Understand, all of my shots are done very fast either out of a pickup window or off a Ranger at running targets. Lots of hits on pigs that size...

They sight in with the 150s probably explains the 24" low at 400 part? Check that brake also, had them come loose and cause problems. Good luck

I have to disagree (in theory, no experience). You are tuning the slower bullet around the faster bullet. In order to have the same POI at a given distance the slower bullet has to fly on a higher trajectory. They can only converge at one point down range and so forth have to be tuned to do...

Did you sight the rifle in with the 195s, or just use your 150 POI? Are you running a suppressor? Could be loose? I don't think your ammo the problem, something is loose?

With my very rudimentary knowledge of the subject and after reading the article RockyMtnMT posted, I've come to the conclusion that is what I'm searching for.....the overlap. When I first started the process, I was unaware it would only work at a given distance? In hindsight, that makes sense...

When I first got the rifle, no I was not. Since I cut it down and running a suppressor I have to clean about every 30 shots. I sure like being able to throw it out the window for a quick shot, but sometimes I think the cans can be a headache?

A quick glance and that looks like I'll need a soft spot to sit and an adult beverage for the read? Thank you sir for the information

No doubt, it will be AI when I rebarrel it. I bought the rifle off one of my hunters that was sick and needed the money. It's supposed to have a 8.5 twist Shilen barrel, but I don't know? **** thing has always been supper picky about what it eats. I've run the gauntlet of bullets through it...

I have to agree. Maybe my question should be....is it identifiable at 600? I've already shot the 100 yard ladder and picked a charge from it. Also did a seating test and have it down around .5moa. Hopefully get out later this week to see if it shows any promise? I cannot find either the...
