Looking forward to seeing results with these. I just bought some of these and the lighter 123gr .268 diameter to try. Also working on my own 160gr cast loads. Really liking the Carcano series you have going.
Mr. TheKoba49, your knowledge of the 6.5 Carcano cartridge and rifles is extensive. I believe you could easily write a book much the same as pat Wolfe's book: "Loading Cartridges for the original 45-70 Springfield Rifle and Carbine". You could easily e-publish it on Amazon and I think the market is there for such a book, especially right now.
What is the manufacturing process of bullets? Extruded, molded or turned? I would think the tolerances would be tighter in extrusions considering manufacturing speed needed.
Literally just got a Carcano and have been looking for this info everywhere
.266 - 267"bullets should provide a noticeable improvement in accuracy in the Carcano over the bog standard .264" projectiles.
Only if you use the right target!!!
@@teamdiscoverychannel1608 Good point.....

Most lead is "swaged". But not every bullet goes through the same dies and the means different wear on tooling.
they are .267
