ok after alot of trial and error I finaly loaded my first LR hunting loads for the 6.5 gibbs. after turning the necks and reworking bullet seating many times I came up with the following
rem cases, fed 210m primers, 61 gr of re22, and a 140 gr a-max
mv is a surprising 3350 fps, sighted in at 300 my 500 yd drop is 3.75 MOA, at 1k its 17 moa. After 5 months of working with this thing Its finaly coming around, the man that built it did tell me pressures would drop as more rounds went downrange till it round count was approx 200 rds.
