Well I got too shoot my Tac Ops Lima 63 today and its a shooter!
I did a ladder test with IMR 4064 and SMK 168's and settled on 47.8 grs as it gave me the best accuracy... I have not messed with seating yet and just loaded them up to sierra's handbook OAL. I also did not sort brass or bullets... I have some Amax 168's and will be testing those to see which gives me the most accurate load next week, I will also be working up loads for the 178 and 208 amax's as soon as I can get my hands on some....
Load was CCI 200 primers, Win brass, 47.8 grs IMR 4064 and SMK 168. at 2710-2720 FPS out of my barrel
.363.5-.308 + .<span style="font-weight: bold">055MOA</span> Thats roughly <span style="color: #FF0000">1/18MOA</span>
<span style="font-weight: bold">BTW this was witnessed by 2 hide members...</span>
Well I think found my load and will be shooting some 5 shot groups next week.
Some more pics of the rifle:
Also got to meet and shoot with the crew from Tactical Concealment. It was a pleasure meeting you guys, for anyone looking for a ghillie, these guys got it down to the science! I got to see some prototypes and some of their current lineup, very impressive stuff.
