Hi guys
You helped me in my first steps in Long Range Shooting. After 14 years shooting pistol (currently I am 31 years old), I switched to rifle and long range shooting. Here my presentation on the forum:
Now I changed my rifle, my last bergara HMR was changed by a Bergara Ridgeback 6.5 creedmoor. Incredible accuracy! Certification submoa in HMR had 12.5mm and not it has 5.2mm
I have developed two good recipes for the last rifle, one with hornady eld m 147 tips that are currently out of stock. And a second option with 142 Sierra hpbt bullets. Since the barrel of the new rifle has the same specifications (length & twist) as the last one, will the same reloading recipe work well? I understand that I just have to readjust the OAL, but more or less the starting point could be the same.
Also, here in Spain most of hunters and shooters have not experience in long range shooting, so I have created an instagram account in English and Spanish to share advices, sample and easy advices. It is useful to me since to add new posts I need to read and improve my knowledge. I realized that most of people spend a lot of time and money in stupid topics. But many times they forget the most important factors such as breathing, posture and knowledge of the wind. A friend says there are two types of people: shooters and reloaders. My account is focused on practical, inexpensive recharging but with good precision, but I am starting. At 900 meters away I am taking a deviation in the entry velocity of my ammunition at that distance, of 1.8 m / s deviation for 20 shots
So now this is my second step, purchasing a better rifle, the barrel comes from the US and it is assembled here in Spain, in bergara facilities. The selected a good barrel to me so I hope now I can shoot longer.
Regarding the recipe, do you guys think I can use the last recipe to develop a new ammo? I think powder charge should be the same and only OAL should be updated.
Thanks so much in advance for the advices!
