    I’d agree with 41.5 gr.

    Very good report Euro.

    I’d bet 41.5 will shoot at, or real close to your expectations.
    We’ve seen the 6.5 CM has shown to be pretty non-temperamental with accuracy in a range of powder weights.

    Interesting where you landed in velocity. Mark's load w/ 143's gave us 2746 fps. It appears you are landing right in that same area. We didn't do much load development either and came up with a nice load. We shot some ridiculous .25 to .35 groups yesterday with my Bergara-AAC 762-NF ATACR. We took pics but don't have that cool software that determines groups. What is that software?

    Good luck dialing it in to Bugholes.

    G, What velocity are you getting?

    I went with 41.5gr. This was the result of 35 rounds trying to simulate real world conditions. Not waiting between shots, shooting a string of 10 in 3-4 mins then letting it cool for a half hour. Tried to simulate a PRS match. The ES of 41 concerns me, but the SD of 9.1 and high round count make me wonder if I should be bothered by it (plus, the first 3 rounds seem a little slower than the rest)




    600 yard group - 5.580". Was hoping to be around 3 or 4, but I'll let you guys chime in. I've gotten smaller groups with my .223 at this distance.

    Why do the loudest do the least?

    Nothing extraordinary PB.
    41.5 is 2720 out of 22” Tikka.
    It is consistent and accurate though.

    I thought it might from looking at your initial data. I’m at 41.5 gr in my 20” Tikka but with Burger Hybrids. I only get 2550 FPS w/o the can and 2580 FPS with. It shoots great, but 20” isn’t enough for the speed.

    I must agree, bad ass rig. Euro with all your Night shooting, do you like the red or green reticle. Do you hold over or dial up at night?
