[QUOTE="bamban, post: 2855161, member: 17722"] Thanks.. We're close to the 168 Hybrids in COAL, I am running 2.93 single loading the M1a for long range matches. I will concentrate on that COAL as well as 2.83 mag length. Plus, I will switch to CCI41. Due to the nature of the pin hole opening on this bolt, primer flow will show even shooting M118 LRs. Compared to the 41s, the 205MAR, though developed for the gas guns, tell tale signs the former shows to have tougher cups, maybe thicker. They are the ones I used running 50 grains of 2000MR on my long range double lugs launching the 168 Hybrids at 2800. The 150 BD2s running 200 fps faster than the 168 Hybrids, both at advertised at similar BCs, I will definitely run the 150s next time we go after some hogs at a friend's family spread. From the ranch house back patio there is a 400 yard feeder where I shoot hogs with 300WM. It will be a good test on these 150s how they perform on hogs. It will be a couple more weeks before I head back out to do load work, will keep you posted. [/QUOTE]
