Thanks. Appreciate the data. I don't remember ever using it in 30/06. But I have used it in 223, 243 and 308. It is decent in all of these. But best consistency and accuracy in 308 with 150, 155, 165 & 168. It likes to be near full case volume to produce/provide best ES, velocity and accuracy. Fed. Match primers helped also. It didn't like less than 50 grain in 223. Not did it do well with lighter 243 bullets. ES and accuracy were poor with my rifles. 16" AR in 223 and 18" Bolt in 243. Longer barrels would likely help. My 308s are 24" & 26" Heavy barrel bolt guns. Thanks.

Thank you for the comment and the information. I do plan to use bl-c(2) when I get to testing my .308s and .223s. I really appreciate the information I get from the viewers and subscribers. I enjoy learning from you all. Thank you.

I would love to see a graph of the average velocities of your groups overlaid upon the graph of your 10 shot search for "flat spots". Then we could see if the flat spot holds up over multiple shots.

I should be able to put something like that together. Please continue to let me know what you'd like to see in the videos. I plan to make a comprehensive final video for each of the powders combining the data from the 3 videos and the results that I got. If you'd like to have me go through certain data please let me know. Thank you for the comment and please subscribe so that you can watch for those result videos.

I was shooting okay with BL-C2 and 168gn Sierra TMKs but it was right at the max load. I think the groups would get a bit tighter at hotter than the max load also. I was using Hodgdon's website for the load data.

I have plans of testing this bullet in my Weatherby .30-06 with Accurate 4064. AA4064 seems to be in the sweet spot of case fill, grain weight, and velocity according to Western Powder's load data.

My Winchester model 70 shoots under 1 moa with BLC2 and 150 grain Hornady Interlocks. My rifle has a Boss system on it. Extremely accurate and very little recoil.

What are you using to throw powder and weigh it? I’m heavily I’m impressed with your SD and ES

The shot numbers don't match the order of the bullet holes. Wonder why?

Good question. I never really worry about marking them right in the app. Don't really think that it matters, but if you think it makes things a little more confusing I can start to mark them in the correct order? Would you like me to do that? Sorry if it has made things more confusing. I also have shot at the wrong target from time to time but I correct it during editing so as to get the proper group size.

@@thewashingtonreloader I couldn't care less, frankly. Only time I need to know which shot is which is during a Creighton Audette ladder test. And I don't use an app. I have a copy of the downrange target on a clipboard at the shooting bench and mark them with a sharpie.

Any experience with a 7mm08 or 308?
@thewashingtonreloader Жыл бұрын
I haven't done any shooting with my 7mm08 yet. But I have done some testing on one of my .308s, just haven't edited the videos yet. My .308 shot REALLY well. I'm excited for those videos to come out.

Why on earth are you using such a fast burning powder on an 06 with a 168grn bullet. That is far too fast burning for that weight bullet. I've been a proffessional Ballistician for over 55 years. You need something like Reloader 22 or 19 or even H4350. Even other slower burning poders work great in an 06 with heavier bullets. My loads with the 165grn to 168grn bullets are doing 3050fps in my 06 with a .328 Sub Moa groups and single digit Es and Sd with RL22. With that load you're using all you're doing is waisting bullets, powder and wear and tear on you're rifle. Not to mention time.
