  1. Yes Jay the RS 70 give more velocity with less presure in big loaded volume , I I'm looking for an efficient reload for Long Range so : heavy bullet and high velocity... I prefeer the 147 gr Hornady for a better BC than the LAPUA scenar 139 gr ! No I dont test this 139 gr with RS70... But in an another caliber the "lighter" bullet and RS70 work very well too , for example in .243 WIN ! So why no use the RS70 with the less expensive 6.5 mm 139 gr LAPUA Scenar ??? (For SMLE : I respect your choise with the EXELENT Lapua scenar 139 gr but for me in à Long Range shooting use , the New Hornady 153 gr A-TIP MATCH will be a good issue too…)https://www.hornady.com/bullets/rifle/6.5mm-264-153-gr-a-tip-match#!/ A+ Laurent.
  2. Hi Jay, Happy to read you, yes I tested the HORNADY 147 gr ELD MATCH (OAL = 2.90''!) in my RPR 6.5CM (24'' 5R Barrel) My magic load with RS 70 give me a good velocity = 2 841 mps with a very good acuracy, with LAPUA Case SRP +CCI 450 ( Picture, 8 Shots at 100 m ) My test with N560 give me a minor accuracy … About the 139 gr LAPUA the best powder between RS 60 and RS 62 the acuracy is better with the single base RS 62 (norma case LR)
  3. Hi Randy, Yes I use the moly dry with the Lyman 's ceramic kit, and any polysh media, just a long time work ! And after 3h00-4h00, I roll the bullets in a cloth to wipe the exess of moly... Look at the results : (Hornady 147 gr ELD-Match) A+ Laurent
  4. Hello Randy, I use this LYMAN Moly Kit, with long time working ans poor moly ajout (about 3h00 or 4h00) anything else ! A+ Laurent.
  5. Hi Guys, here my new Long Range reload ! HORNADY 147 gr ELD- MATCH + 46.7 gr RS70 + LAPUA Case + CCI 450 OAL = 2.903'' V0 = 2841 fps (Target@ 400 m, with no wind flag, RPR 6.5CM)
  6. Hello Laurie, Yes à bolt with excessive space between the firing pin and firing pin hole on the bolt face will allow the primer to flow into that space...and the crater primer comes! In my RPR I measured my clearance between my firing pin and my pin hole (measured on a crater primer) I have 0.05 mm (.001968'') at clearance ! Is it to much ? Or is a right speace between between my firing pin and my pin hole? Enjoy to read you, Laurie! A+ Laurent.
  7. The CCI 450 are the same Cup thickness than the CCI 400, but the 450 work right with the high pressure! The metal cup is harder ??? In my RPR, with slow powder(RS70, 47.1 gr) and heavy bullet (147 gr ELD-M) in 6.5Creedmoor LAPUA Case I use CCI 450 look at this cratered primer : Do you think I'm in over pressure with this load ? https://www.primalrights.com/library/articles/understanding-pressure A+ Laurent.
  8. Hello , I doen't measure yet my velocity to the 46.7 gr RS +147gr Hornady ELD-Match , I prefer test it for the best accuracy at 300 m But I hope a good vellocyty for a LR use... I look QL for this RS70's load : 47.1gr de RS 70 et une OAL de 74,25 mm Presure : 3898 bar - V0 = 854 m/s ( 2802 fps) I 'll share my velocity measure if you are interesting by this LR load...
  9. Hi Guy , Yes the CCI 450 work very Right for the 6.5 Creedmoor SR Case !!! (More than the CCIBR4) whith Lapua Case for a long Range Load , I think I found my magic load with the RS 70... But carrefuly for the cratered cup with this Magnum primer ! A+ Laurent.
  10. Hello Richard, Happy to read You! I don't measure yet my velocity with my 2 slow powder (RS70 and N560) but I work with a friend called Quick Load... Look at the results with 147 gr - COAL 2.903'' (Presure -Velocity) Presure Max 6.5 Creedmoor = 4350 Bar 47.1gr de RS 70 et une OAL de 74,25 mm Presure : 3898 bar - V0 estimée à 854 m/s ( 2802 fps) 47.2gr de N560 et une OAL de 74,25 mm Presure : 3833 bar -V0 estimée à 853 m/s (2799 fps) … (My good accuracy load with N560!) I tell you when Iwill measur my velocity Richard ! A+ Laurent
  11. Hello Richard, Yes ou are in the right! The jump in my RPR work better again with my 147 gr ELD-Match - COAL =2.903'' (In single shot ) Here the result with the 147 gr + 47.2 gr N560 (my best load, but I dont know yet my velocity!!! : (yes the doting line is the X = 50 mm/1.97'') (the nine shoot ia annonced with a bad sigth in the target ... Now I will test the RS70 +147 gr with a slow powder (equivalent N165) ... With 46.3 gr the density load is over- max! (with an Vibrating load with electric toothbrush ) A+ Laurent.
  12. Hello, I test this rounds the saturday 29 september in my RPR at 300 m : The best reload is this one (OAL = 2.920'', the bullet toutch the lands!) : (The X measure 1.97'') What do you thinck about this N560 for the 6.5Creedmoor with eavier bullet? A+Laurent.
  13. Hello I always think (perhaps is not true !) to Long Range Shooting the better results can made with an Heavier bullet (High BC) run with a high velocity for this we necessary to use a slow powder to produce high velocity without max presure. Well for my 6.5 Creedmoor for a LR load, I look about the HORNADY 147 gr ELD-Match (#26333)…In my RPR's barrel 1:8" After lookin those tow link : https://press.hornady.com/assets/site/hornady/files/load-data/6-5-creedmoor-147gr-data.pdf http://www.wwpowder.com/PDF/Burn%20Rates%20-%202015-2016.pdf I think I’ll choose the N560 to run this 147 gr! Is it a good idea , can I have your opinion about my nexts choices and tests ? A+ Laurent. PS : Where I find this Hornady 147 gr ELD-Match in UK?
  14. Hi pow1, I very interesting about your tests with RS62-139 gr Scenar using LAPUA Brass (SR) with velocity! Because I tested this same components exept the brass, I used Norma Brass (LR) ... I ask me if the load will be higther or less with using LR or SR for a same velocity??? A+ Laurent.
  15. Cienfuegos you can use this tatuctor : https://www.bing.com/translator/
  16. In my diferent test powder, it's the RS60 give me the Higher velocity! A+ Laurent.
  17. Hi Brillo, It's a pleasure to read you! It's a very good vellocity 2900 fps (884 m/s) for the association LAPUA Scenar 139gr + H4350 in 6.5Creedmoor ! Is it possible to know your load of H4350 and your lengh barrel? Because in my RPR (24'' 5R) I run my LAPUA Scenar 139 gr Moly at 2800 fps(853 m/s) and when I see Quick Load the presure is near the Pmax with 43.85 gr H4350...Be carrefull! A+ Laurent.
  18. The .308 Brass PETERSON are very good after 32 Firings! http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2017/04/tough-brass-peterson-308-win-brass-strong-after-32-firings/ A+ Laurent

  20. Eurêka Laurie! I find this on Facebook page Vihtavuori : Vihtavuori Powders – better for barrels with decoppering agent! All Vihtavuori reloading powders produced today have an added decoppering agent. What does that mean for you, the reloader using our powders? Well, the decoppering agent reduces the amount of copper residue that forms within the rifle bore when shooting. Less copper residue translates as a cleaner rifle barrel. For the reloading target shooter, this means muzzle velocities with less deviation and increased accur...acy, especially when firing multiple groups. Shooting tests comparing the results of shots fired using a powder without the decoppering agent versus a powder with the decoppering agent show a notable difference in the amount of copper residue inside the rifle bore after only 50 shots (enclosed picture). 16/03/2017 http://www.vihtavuori.com/en/news/22 A+ Laurent.
  21. Yes Laurie I know the American Powder send this anti-fouling Powder for the .223 Rem if I remember good! IT's a member of a French forum (TMF) that give me the information, but I quickly searched this PDF on the site Vihta without success! If you're more lucky than me I'm a taker! Always a peasure to read you! A+ Laurent. Ps : I will test my Magic realod (44 gr H4350 +Lapua scenar 139 gr le 06/23-24 at 600m 1000m and 1270m CAYLUS)
  22. Thank Laurie, about powder for 6.5 Creedmoor (and other calibers...) do you Know the New N160 Anti-Foulling? http://www.vihtavuori.com/upload/guide-and-brochure/vihtavuori-n160-anti-copper-results.pdf (merci jrb95!) A+ Laurent
