Got RL23, just need some 200.20x!

You want half a box?

I'm shooting 200.20x with rl23 in my sammi spec chamber at 3015 fps in a 26" barrel.

Guess I better try em!

 

[jsthntn247]

200 20x was going to be my suggestion as well. Shorter bearing surface so you can push them faster.

180 eh or the 185 juggernauts would be my choice

Where did you start with load development with RL23?

I do t remember the load off the top of my head. I will check when I get home and send you some info.

Always H-4350 with any short mag but it might take a year or two to find a Berger Hybrid these days...who wouldda thunk it would get to this....

 

[K.E.C. Darkside]

Got in a hurry and wasn't very specific.....I'm really looking specifically for something like a Berger Hybrid that won't be jump sensitive like the VLDs. 168 to maybe 190 or so? Mostly be used for deer to elk sized game (and hogs) and long range steel practice. I just can't get the coppers to shoot like I want. I have some 190 VLDs but have access to almost anything else, just wanted to find out what Bergers people have had the best luck with since I haven't tried them yet.
I have ADG brass, CCI 250s, 200s and BR2s, and RL17, H4350, H4831SC, H1000, etc.

Howdy, maybe the 185. Juggernaut, pushed with H.1000. Might satisfy your needs. Happy hunting.

My Prone steel target rifle Obermyer MTU barrel (15 lbs) likes Berger's 200 20X but in a 300 SAUM, my hunting 300 SAUM (9 lbs) Krieger likes Nosler 190 LRAB. Reloader 17 for fastest loads, but 16 was more consistent. Going to try H4350 for next springs long range shoots. Both shoot under 1/2 moa.

My load is 200.20x 67.5 gr of rl23 in adg brass with a 215primer seated at 3.040 coal. Gives me 3015fps in my 26" 10twist shilen.
Took it up to 69grs is when I hit pressure for 3070fps

You might look at Viht n555 with the 180 eol. 3080fps 24 inch barrel, lightweight ga precision built hunter on a templar short action

Is the "180 eol" this bullet?
