    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    For what it's worth I chose the no turn 298 reamer and had nothing but trouble accuracy wise and problems with pressure as well as very inconsistent velocities. Turned necks and all problems went away.

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    So looks like I'm building another one on a t3 action mcmillan carbon fibre sako hunter stock. How much velocity increase is expected with 130s and 140s from a 26" vs 24"

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    Wow what a difference turning made! Turned necks to fifteen thou seated 130 vld 10 thou from lands with 63g h1000. Shot three three shot groups two in the .6 range and one just over .5. Consistent velocity averaging 3180 fps. Got a perfect 100 yard zero and ran it out on the five hundred plate...

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    I don't believe it is the chrono as it seems right in line and consistent when we shoot several other rifles over it. I think you could be right about the neck thickness as I am not turning my brass at this stage - running the 298 reamer, but some loaded rounds come slightly on the wrong side of...

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    I'm still trying to get my head around the problems I am have with erratic velocities and pressure. For example 140 amax and 61gr h1000 with a fed 215s velocities varied between 2980 and 3135 over five shots.I am thinking it comes down to neck tension, when I take a fired case I cannot fit a...

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    Thanks for the info re the funny looking primers with rem 700 bolts, has anybody else experienced the ejector marks and stiff bolt lift with supposedly mild loads and Virgin brass?

    New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM

    Did break-in my rifle today and got primers that looked like this with 130 vld 62g h1000 nosler brass and fed 215s. Using new reamer at about 7 thou jump. Also had ejector marks and stiff bolt lift on some. Velocities varied between 3100 and 3235 which seems in line with what most are achieving...

    I notice a lot of you are using a magneto chrono, any idea if these work with a suppressed rifle?
