6.5mm Ram load survey
OK, here it is:
1? What bullet and at what velocity is your 6.5mm Ram recipe?
2) What velocity do you consider to high/low?
Cheers!

Sierra 142 pill atop 43 grains of RL-19. Dont know what the velocity is sorry. I just went with what Eric Boos shoots and called it good. If it works well enough for Eric it should work well enough for me

Re: 6.5mm Ram load survey
I shoot the 139-grain Lapua Silver Scenars over 41.5gr of H4350 in my .260 Rem. I don't have exact data here handy but it was right at 2750fps and seems to hammer the rams pretty well. At the last match the only reason I didn't get my 10-in-a-row on rams was because I got excited and missed the last one.
