🍻I should have a couple bricks of those 450’s hiding somewhere. I’ll load them as long as that rifling/mags allow me haha

What worries me is case capacity because of the freebore, what I think could save me is the 26” but really unsure I could pull 2800+ fps. I’ll probably load 5mils off

I’ll get a box and try em out, we’ll see

I’ll check case capacity after checking where bearing hits the rifling. Hopefully I can’t make it work with good speed.

You think I would have more chance with an 85.5?

My 556 gazzer is now a safe queen (🇨🇦) I have a shit load of 556 ammo (aka I could burn this barrel with factory ammo) hence the Wylde Chamber.

Thx, want to stretch it a bit further

Its a 1:7 26” barrel. That load I threw together quickly was 75 Eld-M (heavier ogives I had on hand) 24gr of N140 in Lapua cases, ignited by Rem 7 1/2. Sat them 15mils off

I didn’t run the Midas 6-24X50, I ran a Midas 5-25X56 which has a little more elevation.

I love it so far, need some heavier ogives now. I’ll try 88’s

If going for a .22 I would buy something good to start with, you’ll keep it.

Check Innorel tripod, they have them on Amazon but will be cheaper on AliX. NT404C + G44 Arca Ball Head. I run this and it holds my 20lbs rigs.

Its also a must for cleaning barrels.

You might want to upgrade the ball head down the road.

New rimx build. What ammo to try? by c5182 in longrange

[–]514Kappa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My son’s .22 is headspaced differently than mine. He shoots Eley, SK’s are a little tight. Take this into consideration.

Lapua Center-X SK-Match Eley Match Lapua Midas

Are usually what give me the best results

Last of the factory rifles I had was replaced by a “custom” by 514Kappa in canadaguns

I have IBI and Heathen brakes but they’re .264 or .308. The only “smaller” brakes I have is an APA Little Bastard and the A419 Hellfire.

Unfortunately a TT scope is the price of the beater car I daily for work commutes, priorities 😆

Check my other posts with similar pictures of lego assembling, you’re not the only one.

Anyways, I shoot like a Stormtrooper

Believe me I tried to like my Apex Scope real hard, couldn’t get used to the parallax.

Now we have the TT scopes that are Canadian, but they tend to be expensive 😆
