I’m a 7mm08 guy myself, but I’ll never pass up a good 243 lesson 🤘

As always great vidieos young man!

30.06 a lot closer to the bullseye as far as group about the same

It would be interesting to see how those do in a bolt action, break breech, or other action. Did the slower, CFE powder seem to "gas" you more than the Benchmark? If your goal was 3300, I think 50 fps short would be made up by the tighter groups of the Benchmark. Good shooting as always.

Hate all the disclaimers you need to know

bench mark looks better

Great testing and awesome info Dave. I'd love to see you test w/Benchmark and use small rifle magnum primers and see what the results would be. Hope you and the family had a great Thanksgiving and will see you next time. God bless

Man I sure have enjoyed my Grendel. I to have had great accuracy for varment rounds I like that Hornady 95gr. Vmax another that has got me kinda giddy is the Sierra 105 gr. Blitz king . I just got some Sierra tgk 130 for my creedmoor but after watching your heavy video I'm real curious what the Grendel can do with them. Have you put any of them down the barrel of the Grendel. Just subbed thank you sir good videoes

I would like to see .243 -vs- Rem 6mm -vs- 6mm Creedmoor ......... and separately see 6.5 Creedmoor -vs- 6.5-284 Norma.

Dave. Good video and shooting. Nice workup on the powders. Thanks for sharing and take care.

Good work as always! I've been wondering about these two powders. Thanks for conducting this test and sharing.

I enjoy your vids very much Dave. I use the 55gr Varmageddons in my 22-250👍

It's funny how sometimes bullet manufacturers and powder manufacturers load data doesn't jive. I just shot some 95 grain Hornady Ballistic Tips loaded for my .260 with Winchester 760 powder that clocked at 3346fps average and still under a max charge from Hodgdon's loading data. I was using Hornady brass and got a little heavy bolt lift. The Hornady manual only loads theirs to around 3100 fps and a lighter max charge. I loaded the rounds before I acquired a Hornady manual and I have seen quite the opposite with some Speer data I even called Hodgdon and verified their charge against Speers. This was for .243 Winchester and 60 grain Speer Hot Cor the Speer max load was pitifully slow. Best to use a chronograph of some kind I still have a Magnetospeed but am spoiled to the Garmin I bought earlier this year. It only has failed to pick up four shots and three was due to being too close to a muzzle brake on my .458 SOCOM. Good news to me about the CFE 223 as I have several pounds of it available. Thanks for the report.

I'm using 60 gr Hammer Hunters and 65 gr SGK in my RRA R3 Competition with 18" barrel and 1:7 twist. I just wish H4198 was available because that's the powder that worked best for me. The second best powder that worked for those loads was H322. Good luck, and stay safe!!! 😉😉😉

Oooh.. I have a ton of Hornady 55gn bullets, and both powders (I've only loaded the CFE223 in 6.5 G).. this makes me want to see how fast I can get them going.. and maybe order some Noslers ;)

Nice, I'm going to try loading the 62gr eldvt for my first loads in a new 22arc with a shaw barrel using benchmark. I'm hoping to get at least 3200 with them. Id love to get the es and sd's you saw. I have some 40gr varmageddon's but I'm worried that they'll spin apart and go poof! Those noslers should work well, id imagine. Thanks, enjoyed the video.

Never loaded either in 223/556. Good stuff Dave!!

I get one hole groups with benchmark and h4895 using 40 grain Nosler ballistic tips and 60 grain vmax. I like benchmark! The 40 grain I use 27 grains of benchmark and 60 grain I use 25 grains. H4895 I’m at 25.2 grains. They group about the same…all around .3” at 200 yards.

Hey Dave, thanks for sharing! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

This is great to see. I’ll soon have a 6arc howa mini here in Australia and I hope I get these sorts of velocities and I hope good brass life too. I wonder how many reloads you get without brass issues? Been waiting a year, it could still be months away, I think everyone goes to sleep in election years. They seem so similar in energy on game that I went for 6arc, in between 6.5G and 22ARC. I hope the howa mini mag length allows flexibility in hand loads.

I had a gunsmith friend who reamed 8mm mausers to 8-06AI. Really big difference in ballistics. His idea was if you have to handload, get the most out of it.

Guten Tag Herr Strohmeyer, do you still speak / understand German or is it all gone by now?

Hi Sir, I just received the 24"SS416 from Anderson, assembling everything now.

The big problem of factory rifles in 5,6 and 6 mm calibers is for my opinion the senseless twist rate for longer (havier) bullets.For taht reason i customized my Remington Police with an 8" twist barrel and system blue print and now i have a real match grade hunting rifle.😜

The folks that messed with the 25-06 found it could be moved to magnum status with IMR 4831 and 26" barrels. I have owned a couple over the years a still have one fine caliber. Popular here in PA believe it or not.

"When regular cores slip, hot cores grip".

Creedmore is so much better than the rest, see how accurate those shots were?

why not compare 30 .06 and30 .03 British

That old jeweled bolt BDR in 22-250. All. Day. Long

Congratulations on getting some demos, One thing about being lock into an acra rail is you can just grab your rifle and walk away with it. To set up and look for more rock chucks lol.. instead of breaking it all down. Next time get your favorite chair and get the tripod to that height. That is the most enjoyment of shooting for me these days just a few more months and rock chucks will be out.. happy Thanksgiving

Good stuff

Always appreciate and enjoy your videos Dave! Thanks much and God bless y'all this Thanksgiving!

Dave. That new tripod looks like a pretty nice setup. Good shooting with bother of them. Thanks for sharing and take care.

How's the 6.8 SPC II coming?

Creedmoor is for recoil sensitive fellas

Nice, but, how much $$$?😮 Buy factory direct?

Great educational video on the Trakiom Tripod looks like a good one based on your presentation .Thank you God bless you and your family God-bless America 🇺🇸 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱

Great products. I really like the sling steadying on the tripod leg. Almost as accurate as shooting from a bench! Would be a lot less wounded animals if people shot from a stable position such as you have shown.

Good shooting! I already have a BOG, so not in the market. Continue using that one and see how durable it is over time. Those leg angle lever/buttons are interesting, their durability will be tested with every use. That 66 pound limit is pretty nice. 👍👍

Mornin Dave!

.243 is king in my book.

Good video. Take your rifle out of the stock and you will find there is a spring and a 2 nuts on the trigger. It's adjustable that should take care of the horrible trigger pull .and free float the barrel . It helped my model 70

I run a 18.5” 6.5 Grendel bbl on a DMR and it’s running just fine for groups and velocity. If you’re running a 24” bbl and the system is heavy…? That’s on you Sir.

I’ll stick to my Grendel

RIFLE model ?

I just ordered these last night. The fact that the pocket gauges screw into a handle sold me since my Ballistic Tools gauges are small in diameter anger old Arthur Itis. I also wanted the pocket uniformers, so the kit gives me all that and more. Now I'm eyeing their anneal/brass prep station.

Your velocity results have me very interested in what i have my handloads running at? Iirc i came up with a charge of 46.5gr (no chronograph), i was able to print a group in both mine and my brothers Tikka t3x of under 1"@ 150yds with hornady CX 165gr running max length to fit factory 308 mag, the tikkas' we have a LONG freebore and loves non lead ammo (3006 mag coming up to run longer) I started at 43gr and ladder charged up to 48gr there was no charge charts available to me 1.5-years ago for non lead ammo, used a powder burn comparison chart and started at the lower middle end for i believe Varget. I chose StaBall for its supposed temperature stability in the deer woods, 20* in the morning to 85* in the shade is not uncommon during deer season in Northern CA

👍

Bill Wilson Is 1 Of The 10 Best In The Business. Mr. Wilson AR’s Are 2nd To None. Then Bill Has His Own Ammo & Also Has Taken Over Lehigh Ammo. This .300 Hammer In 110 & 130 Grain Controlled Chaos Is Absolutely The Best In Anything This His AR’s Are Meant For. I Have 4 Because There Just That Damn Good & I Have 2 In .458 SOCOM. Spectacular & In AR’s These All I Need. Then Onto Bolt Firearms Which Is Another & Separate Subject.

Thanks for the great work. The 243 is such a great cartridge for whitetails.
