[QUOTE="Shooter264, post: 499131, member: 23746"] Just a quick update on this rifle. I was finally able to get settled in on an load (with the exception of which primer to shoot) and was able to shoot it over the Chronograph today. I settled in on 43 grains of H4350 with a 130 JLK. I have shot both Fed 205M's and CCI 450's and both shoot fantastic. I thought I would be able to settle which one to shoot with the Chronograph but it was no help!!! With the Fed 205's Velocities averaged right at 3000, (Yes you read that right!! 3000 FPS with a 130 JLK out of 6.5x47L). ES was 15 with an SD of 6!! That's perfect....but the 450's averaged 2999 with a ES of 14 and an SD of 6!! **** the luck!! Both shot a little bigger than 5/8" at 200 yards and I was extremely happy with that seeing as the wind was blowing 15-20 MPH. I guess I will load three groups of each and shoot them at 600 and see which one performs better and go from there. There is a Big Black Fuzzy Wuzzy and a Big Mulie in Southern Wyoming that will fall victim to the 130 JLK this year!!! Now I just need to shoot data and cut myself a knob. [/QUOTE]
