Good to hear. This will be out of a factory JP. I just got 40 rounds to test today

The AAC blue box 140gr BTHP shot the best with the 140gr SMK as a close second. My experience with JP in house barrels the 140gr SMK shot really well.

The 73 grain projectiles from Hornady and Berger are truly exceptional out of these heavy Contour Geissele barrels both in 14.5" and 16".

The .181, isn't the smallest five grand group I've ever shot but damn close.

How do these heavy profile barrels compare to the lighter profile CHF barrels? I have been leaning towards a Criterion Core but these results are really promising from Geissele.

Jake all my rifles and wife’s shoot 24.4 gr TAC in LC brass pushing 77 SMK’s very well. Push it harder and see how it does. Thank you for this friend

Had a chance to try some of the Hotter Loads with Geissele SPR and 22" Kreiger JP SCI-20.

Still haven't seen any pressure signs working all the way up to 24.7grs of Tac in 18" SPR and 24.1 in the 22" Kreiger.

22" Kreiger

Decent results with 23.7gr and 24.1gr

18" Geissele SPR.

24.5gr Tac

Shot this today with FF brass in the Geissele SPR. Creeping up on 200rds and the SPR barrel is starting to settle in, should get the TAC load locked in soon. Next will be IMR XBR and 77gr SMK.
23.8grs
