[QUOTE="Varberger757, post: 920875, member: 66992"] Thanks Mark! Here are some informations about lead - free bullets which I was posting in the current Barnes thread. Unfortunately it seemed so far not to be of interest. :rolleyes: My post includes data for the [B]408 Cheytac[/B] as well and of course 8mm (323') . This new rifle [B]G -6[/B] in the brand new [B]8 x70[/B] is currently tested in Norway. It's based on a Christensen system and has a GRS - stock. They were already shooting out to 2000m ! That's quite a distance. I'd also like to hear the opinion of Broz about this development. Lead - free producers like Barnes and others will come under (big) pressure since the development of lead -free bullets for the exclusive purpose of LR has already made big steps forward. The Lutz Moeller Company in Germany has developed two different kinds of LR - bullets for the [B]408 Cheytac[/B] made of [B]brass[/B]. Chey Tac 1021 with a 26g/401gr bullet weight and the 1022 with 30g/463gr ...!! Both hold a velocity of stunning 549m/s or 1801ft/s at 1200m/1312 yards. You'll find loading data on his web sites also for American powders like RL 22, H 4350, H 4831 and IMR 7828. Under a project called [B]G-6[/B] (Gewehr 6/ rifle 6) Moeller develops a special LR - round LM -101 (100% brass) for a... .[B]323 round[/B], the brandnew [B]8 x 70[/B]! In addition the [B]G-6[/B] gets an interchangeable barrel for 338LM. This barrel in 338LM is thought for "low cost" training sessions. :D Looks like that thinks are getting better. BC1000 for the Cheytac 1021= 0,95 and BC1000 for the Cheytac 1022 = 1,069 [/QUOTE]
