Johnny, I like watching your videos. I hope you stay with it. I am an old reloader and shooter. Please take a moment and watch your own video about how you pull the trigger. From the time the seer releases till the time your finger and trigger hit the brakes is a millisecond, but enough to move the barrel. When you pull the trigger you are all the way up to the first nuckle of your trigger finger. I think if you just use the finger tip so you are pulling straight back, you'll get better groups. I have watched you struggle with 3 good bullet placement and then a flyer or two.... thats all you.

Great video Johnny. I was very surprised at the velocities you were getting with the H4350. I'm loading Alpha brass with Hornady 140 grain ELD-M, CCI-450 primers and just changed my powder load to 41.3 grains which gives me consistent 2,750 velocity, ~5 SD and ~8 ES and groups in the .368" area. The Hornady bullets love to jump to the lands, so I'm seating them about .040 off, which seems far, but again, they love it. I even went further and anneal after every firing and to me, the one thing that has made a huge difference (even posted a video about it) has been double mandrelling the neck. I bump and expand in separate steps, so when I mandrel the neck, I do two passes, which gives me a neck tension of about .0015 - 0020 inches. Keep these great videos coming Johnny! Subscribed.

With that kind of accuracy I wonder what would it happen if you would take some extra steps on brass preparation... I've been reloading for quite sometime for hunting and competition... so there it goes some advices (I guess you are aware of). I would take a group that has already give a good combo group size/ standar desviation (been Sd the most importat) Case preparation with flash hole deburring and chanfer. Weight brass and discard within tolerance of +- 5 gn CCI Br2 primers ( yeah.... they start to matter at this point) Vihtavuori gives often better SD values (Although I live in Spain and I'm not having access to IMR powders) Slighty compress powder charges usually have more uniform burn-> less SD I would rather take a slower powder if it fills the case more (despite lossing some speed) Always single weight each load, and never remove powder from the pan, If you put to much powder start once again (thats because all digital scales have some grade of play, by only adding powder you king of keep that play on the same side all the time) (The less variables you put into the ecuation the better, I would remove the magneto Speed and the supressor) Other things like neck sizing, neck turning and bullet weight segregation I haven't found to be all that much relevant outside the Bench rest world. Please forget my broken English, I'm working on fix that! Saludos Johnny :)

It is clear that H4350 really is as good as the internet lore says it is. I shot 4451 forever with great results, but a kind of weenie load, but it would shoot bug holes. - I built a new custom gun and found 8lbs of H4350 - I'm @ 42.1-42.4 w/ a 140. H4350 shoots better and better the more you put in the case. I noticed the same thing, faster bullets, smaller groups. With no top end. Just keep going. IMR4451 shot REALLY well (see above) in lower charge weights. I settled on 39.9g (2650fps) but it never really worked any higher than that.

My Howa 1500 and my ol lady's T/C Venture in 6.5 Creedmoor loves the 130gr Swift Sirocco 2 and the 140gr Hornady ELD-M but for reasons I still can't explain her rifles will get around 80fps faster velocities with the same bullet and charge weight even though barrel length, twist rates are the same and the bullets hits the rifling within 4 thousandths of each other and I've tried multiple different bullets with the exact same results...

Hey it might be a good idea to revisit this video. Let's crank up the velocity till we start seeing marks on the brass. For as much as you have in that gun burning out the barrel is nothing. The whole premise of the Creedmoor is Superflat shooting it's going to take high velocity
@jimhans16 жыл бұрын
Joel Clark actually, the whole "premise" to the 6.5CM was to beat the 308 in trajectory over extended ranges. If you take the 168gr matchking loads in 308, they go roughly 2650-2700fps at the muzzle, which at 1000yds translates into 12.0Mils/41.4MOA/474inches of drop and a bullet only going 1049fps once it gets to 1000yds so it's no longer supersonic, and it takes 1.83 seconds to get there. The 6.5CM with a 140gr bullet at 2650-2700fps gets you only 9.5Mils/32.76MOA/382inches of drop at 1000yds and the bullet is still traveling at 1360fps in only 1.4 seconds of flight, so much better exterior ballistics, even when launched at the same velocity. If you want laser beam type bullet trajectories you would want to look at the 6.5/300Wby which will launch the same 140gr bullet as the Creedmoor, but at over 3000fps! Or maybe a 30-378wby, which will launch a 220+gr bullet at 3000fps

This is very true and it would be worth testing. I'll shoot off a rest in the next video. However, I really don't think it's going to matter. The Aero Precision M5E1 upper receivers and handguards we used are almost like a monolithic upper. The handguard mounts directly to the receiver without touching the barrel nut at all! For this reason, I can't imagine how a loaded bipod would introduce stresses to the barrel. I am totally certain there's plenty of gas block clearance, so even if I'm inducing some flex I'm certain there isn't contact. I don't know. At this point I'm desperate, so I will try anything! Thanks!

He did see a difference on his 6.5 Faxon Faxon barrel with it, but I forget if it was a positive or negative change with the suppressor

Suppressor made better groups. Everything moved POI, but didn't change group sizes.

I really like your vids and watching them all as I shoot distance and reload the 6.5. Do you have a dislike for the H powder? I can't find one that beats it and your results were pretty telling

I have to say, 4451 has not been fantastic. I’ve tried dozens of loads and could not get the SD’s right. Good SD’s resulted in poor accuracy. Poor SD’s resulted in good accuracy, but Past 740yds the groups fell apart and made it difficult to hit steel past that distance. I have to say with the 147 ELD-M I’m using RL19 with great results. 1.8” groups at 500yds for five shots. It’s replicated that three times. My SD’s are single digit. My avg. velocity is 2877 from a 32” barrel. This rifle is used for steel match and groundhog matches. Maybe try some slower powders. I would like to see you run some Ramshot Hunter with a 143-147 bullet.

Best thing to do with a .308 is lengthen the case by about a half inch and shoot it as God intended. : )

Can you compare accuracy between groups when you don't fire "round robin"? First groups barrel cooler, last groups unless you cool between groups will be with a very hot barrel.
