[QUOTE="Arapaho, post: 1749593, member: 111801"] I also decided to hunt with a 6.5x47 Lapua but shoot the Berger 140 hybrid. It is running at 2850fps with a generous load of h4350. So generous that I drop tube it in to seat without a lot of crunch. The barrel is a retired match but still very accurate CBI 26 inch Remage. The CBI has a generous throat to get the 140 hybrid seated above the brass shoulder junction, which sits .020 off the lands. Our muzzle loading season is still in here in Central North Carolina but when it is over, I will see what the ole 6.5 will do. Good luck hunting this season! [/QUOTE]
