[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1897006, member: 30671"] This has all been an experiment for me, I've learned a bit each step. We used an action I had, starting today (without downplaying what we have) I would have got an action compatible with the bigger better designed cartridges. Steve was already there (reamers available for the Lapua/Norma) As it's come together, I don't know if we would squeeze more velocity out of it, but I've become more comfortable with the shorter powder column producing better ignition, burn, and perhaps less worry of pressure spikes. Some exterior ballistic info, and terminal performance experiments to round out development. Cody do you know the case capacity for the 6.5-.338 Norma? The faster twist hasn't shown to be a detriment in the mono's-what tips you toward the 131 over the 137. [/QUOTE]
