🇦🇺😎👍Both my .223s love the 69 grainers…Haven’t seen those projectiles at Cleavers…nice looking big long slug…How much do those bad boys cost ?…. I just checked out the website while you were talking , good stuff… thanks for the info brother🇦🇺🏁

Nice looking projectile... I had a look on their site and most of their projectiles are sold out .. They still have some 69g but I wanted something a bit lighter .

@@shanegibb997 these will stabilise in a 1:8 twist, but the 22-250, which is normally 1:14 will not stabilise them. Those 55 grain Roo Bombs look a good thing too, but they’re out of stock. I’m looking forward to the 30 cal projectiles. They’re a work in progress, but they are definitely on the horizon.

@@2clicksup910 l was hoping they had something in the 65/70g for the 243 .. Yes I would have bought some of those 55g roo bombs if they were in stock ..

@@shanegibb997 I believe there are 80’s for the 243, but I’m not sure of current stock levels. I’m going to give the 106’s a crack in the 243; see how they go.

I have hade similar problem , change Hogue stock! One shot always goes further than the others. At first I thought about the rings or the optics, but after changing the stock everything was fixed.

@@oraziobennardo there’s a good chance that some of those fliers are me. That rifle has always shot the 55 grain Hornady V-Max extremely accurately as long as I did my bit.

Hey mate what’s the qty in the box? Also what seating depth did you end up going with on the howa?

[@2clicksup910]

As far as I’m aware, all the REXEM products are sold in 100-piece packs, but get confirmation of that via the website. I went with a COAL (overall length) of 59mm, but that just touched both ends of the internal box magazine in the HOWA, which created minor feeding issues. Knocked them down to 57.60mm, and that seems to work nicely. As I’m loading ammo for hunting only, I don’t really worry about jump to the kans, etc.; I like to make it fir in the magazine, feed, fir in the rifle, go bang then come out all without issues.

@@2clicksup910 Cheers for that, for some reason they don’t have qty on the website, even when you add to cart. Seems like great projectiles, price is not bad at all. I have a Howa mini myself, keen to try heavier pills through them, will give these a go. Keep up the content!
