[QUOTE="sj-pratt, post: 772519, member: 6953"] Well finally got a minute to post some pictures RHB brought over to me of the 6.5 BPX. The velocity is where we thought it might be and the case, although it's been shortend can still hold enough of the slower powders to see some pressure signs. RHB stopped going up when he saw any signs of a shinner on the case head so I ran the info he gave me on quickload adjusting the case size and volumne the best I could and I matched up his velocities pretty good. When he saw the shinner on the back of the case, the info from quickloads showed the loads to be above 66000psi and the next charge down drop the pressure below 64500 and did not show any thing on the case heads. As you can see from some of the targets the premium velocity is 3050??? and we all new that would be the case. Now its time for load developement," this little case is going to shoot one hole groups at 3050" and has a large node for accuracy and if the temperature goes up or down this little gun looks like it will just roll with the punches. Very happy with the outcome, now time to see if we can come up with a little easier way of making the brass, the procedure RHB is using now won't let us share this nice round with very many people. Thanks for following thread we will keep posting as we move on. [/QUOTE]
