[QUOTE="Bishop, post: 930045, member: 26163"] If i could get components i would try different primers, i have 20 lb of imr-4064 since that was all i could get so changing powder isnt an option at this point, i am steadily buying up varget here and there and reloder 17 is available sometimes. When i get enough saved up i may switch. i may see what i can get some 175 bergers to do, or some 178 amax. This chamber has a .3442 neck, so i dont think i would gain much by neck turning, the lapua seems to be pretty good. I have i think .003 clearance with the lapua brass at .015 neck thickness, i think a loaded round measures .338 and i size with a .336 bushing for 1 thou of springback, leaving me with 1 thou of tension. I could turn and get a .334 or .335 bushing i guess. Dont know how much that would help with the .344 neck chamber though. Seems that fed and cci primers are fairytale fodder for now, but wlr primers are growing on trees. Im going to sort by ogive and see what that does for my ES and accuracy, then check it at 4 to 600 depending on the wind! Ill report back in a week or two! Thanks!! [/QUOTE]
