[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1668744, member: 97414"] I'll keep an eye on the donut,,, so far so good on round 2 of the brass,,, I fit a booti into the empty fired case with no sign of build up """yet""". The reason I used 30/06 brass is I had it on hand,,, 400 Lapua,,, I used 150 peaces for this rifle... Reloaded ammo tests are going good. ELD-M 147gr with 47gr H4350 Clocking 2740 ft-per seconds... ELD-X 143gr with 46.8gr of IMR 4350 Clocking 2780 ft-per seconds... Tomorrow it's ELD-M 140gr with 53 or 54gr of H1000 with expectations of 2800 ish ft-per seconds... The 1:8 twist is slowing things down a bit,,, but the loooooong booltiz like it... Ha... I like the idea of the H 1000 powder since it fills the case above 87% bracket,,, the powders I've tried so far seem to work,,, purhaps this cartridge is forgiving for some reason... The next to nill for recoil is awesome since I can spot my shots on the gongs... Of course I can do this with with other two 30 caliber rifles I have... The other reason I didn't go to the 264 Win Mag was the rifle I started with was originally a 30/06,,, I'm not sure if it's the same bolt size or not... Dosen't really matter now anyways since this 65 shoots awesome... It might not be the fastest 65 in the play ground,,, it ain't the slowest either... LOL [/QUOTE]
