6.5CM loading

[waco]

It's been awhile. I loaded up 50 rounds tonight to go out shooting with a youngster from work this Sunday.
This load does well jammed .010" into the lands.
Starline brass, fire formed, necks turned, all brass prep, CCI SRM primers, 41.0gr H4350, Hor 140gr ELD-M

Bet this youngster is tech savvy enough to run a camera...

 

[waco]

I might get some video footage.......

Post a video of anything, if only to get Brad off your case.

Nice pics!!

 

[Spindrift]

Nice photos, and good luck with your shooting!
You know, NOE makes a nice mould for the Creedmoor. A sleek, high BC bullet. Just sayin'

My 6.5 CM RPR loves ELD M 140's. Looks like you turned the necks as well, very good pics.

I’ve thought about it several times.

Yes sir. This is small rifle primer Starline brass. I did as much case prep as possible.

I use a Forster Ultra Micrometer seat die and my runout is under .003”-.0035”

 

[Gary]

I use the Wilson Die; haven't bothered checking runout yet.

Am I the only one old enough here to use Vickerman seating dies.
I was turned on to them in the 60s by my mentor and they are still using them.

Johnny’s Reloading Bench has some good 6.5CM loading and shooting videos. Did a couple just on primers, large and small pocket differences, what worked and what didn’t.

What’s a Vickerman seating die?

 

[RBHarter]

It's the cream of the cream in line seater with a drop in window for the bullet that allows some silly tight tolerances for the neck , bullet dia and zero or very close to zero run out .

Thanks! I guess I have seen them before. Never owned or used one though.

It looks like a new company has taken over the manufacture of them since I got mine.
