No update on velocity just yet. Not a reliable source but 4000 Mr shoots very similar to r22 and that says 2850 with 52.5 in Hornadys book. It's a 26" barrel and I do still plan to get over a chronograph here hopefully soon ish.

6.5-284 it's got a 1-8 Douglas barrel on it

I bought the rifle already built and I'm not sure who made it. Got a good deal on it and figured if nothing else I'd take the Argentine 1909 and build something on it if it didn't shoot. I'm pretty okay with it at the moment. It's going to be my wife's elk gun and she won't send a round past 300...

Okay the promised update. This is a 5round group at 100 with the 147eldm and 52.5 gr of 4000mr coal of 3.013 I wasn't shooting over a chronograph so I'm not sure on speed just yet.

Will do

I recently purchased a 6.5-284 Norma with a 1-8 and was thinking of trying the 147 eldms. Nosler has a load with 4000 Mr for the 140 partition, has anyone tried any loads with the 147 Eld M's?

I read it at 50 gr for 55 just re-read and it's 50 gr and 55 gr bullet. Makes much better sense

I'm sure this is an old thread. But I just loaded up some 55gr v-max for my 250 and Hornadys book stops at 40.6 for h-380. You just ladder up or are you shooting a different bullet?
