Berger 245 EOL

[elkaholic]

Tuned in for results. Curious what the performance of this bullet would be out of a RUM? May be curious enough to try myself....

Edit - Nevermind, I have a 1:10 twist. Bummer

The guys at EOL told me they shoot 1 hole with a RUM at 2900'

man, you would have to run the 230 berger at 3100 to get the close to the same energy at 1000 yds

I wonder if my 7 twist 308 will stabilize them sub sonic.

I wonder what barrel length they are using to run them at 2900?.

I have 200 of them, my proof carbon blank is being shipped, it will be 28" and a 9 twist, I cant wait.

 

[rockwallraider]

Probably 26

Any data yet? I went off my 230 Berger data and started at 82.3 of n570. Blew primer and got 2980 seated 20 though.
was expecting to be in the mid 2800. CraZy

rockwallradier,
Are you testing them in a 1/10 twist or something faster? Are the bullets considered a hybrid or they a VLD?

 

[rockwallraider]

1-9
Not vld

Wondering what a 28" 300 Norma would do?

I think it would be very similar to my 28" 30 SM. I reached 3040' before I reached pressure signs.
