WTS - 6.5mm TCU Reamer 4 Silhouette
Posted: Sun Apr 15, 2012 1:29 pm
Meine Damen und Herren,
I have a custom designed 6.5mm TCU reamer for sale. It was designed around using the 140 A-MAX for all animals. But, since it has a very tight freebore, the shorter bullets also shoot into tiny groups. A rifle chambered with this reamer will launch the 140-gr A-MAX bullets to 2,520 fps with no pressure problems. Lapua brass must be used for the ram loads, though. I'll find my load data...hold on....OK, back. Here are the match loads fired out of a 24" Hart barrel.
6.5mm TCU C, P & T Load
MV 2,250 fps; 26.0 N140; F205M; 140 A-MAX
Range Velocity Drop
200 - 1958 - 0.0
300 - 1819 - 4.25
385 - 1702 - 8.5
500 - 1551 - 14.75
6.5mm TCU Ram Load
MV 2,520 fps; 29.0 N150; F205M; 140 A-MAX
Range Velocity Drop
200 - 2218 - 0.0
300 - 2071 - 3.3
385 - 1949 - 6.5
500 - 1790 - 11.3
This is a great round for the recoil adverse. And, the chamber reamer is for sale if anybody's interested. It is a custom JGS reamer that would cost, I believe, $230 plus shipping and a considerable wait. I'm only asking $150 delivered to the lower 48. Only one rifle has been chambered with it so it is like new. And, it is a proven design. After years of designing reamers, that statement is nothing to sneeze at. PM me if interested. Here's a picture of the reamer and a round loaded with the 140 Hornady A-Max Bullet.
