Realflight 7.5 addiction x full#

My first attempt with different projectiles to magazine length didn't go so well (66% ignition failure), but now I am jamming I'm getting lovely small groups. I'm currently fire forming brass with 140 gr Berger target hybrids and 47 gr AR2213SC/H4831. Bartlein light bull barrel 1:7.5 twist 26', with a 5' breach I finally have my new rifle chambered in 6.5 Addiction up and running: It was re-chambered from 6.5x47 at 793 round mark and now has 1449 total. I'm shooting a 24' Hawk Hill barrel chambered by PVA on a Sako TRG 22 with the KRG AI magazine conversion backbone and ARC mags with 419 extensions. Retumbo couldn't even get me to the 2900 node, but did show a probable node at 2840.

The H1000 was giving obvious pressure signs at the 2970 node and from the RL 26.I'm not sure I'd want to run it at a rainy match. I couldn't get close to the high node with H4831. When I went back and looked at my data for H1000 and RL 26, both show possible nodes with the 147 in my 24' barrel at about 2900-2915 and about 2965-2980. I'm happy at within 5mph, and hope for a big target. So it doesn't really seem worth it, because my skill level isn't to the estimating within 2mph level.

The increased velocity from RL26 only gives me about 2 1/2' wind advantage in a 10mph full value at 1000 yards or 1/2mph. Then at the end I shot 2 more into the same group. At the beginning of my range time I shot a 3 round group with my 4831 load. The RL 26 loads don't seem to be as consistent or as tight as my current 4831 load that shoots 2900. At least 1 bolt lift was firm on each 3 shot string. All three averaged under an inch, but only one was close to 1/2' (.555') average. I fired 3-3 shot groups for each fine tuned charge. After tweaking QL based on my results to date, it still seems possible to come close to that objective, but will need the magic speed dust.ДЇinally tested my 147ELD/RL 26 loads at the 2977 fps node. I wanted something that was going to show a velocity jump which would result in a 10% improvement in wind drift, and I think that will only come with RL26. Its nice to shoot for the novelty, and to use up my 4831, but this is not where I wanted to be with this cartridge.

I'm using 11 grains more powder for an additional 80fps. My current 6.5x47 load using RL 16 pushes the 147 to 2820 (also with a 24' barrel). I think to see magic velocities in this cartridge, you need RL26. Until I can get some RL 26, this is what I'm going to stick with. It is all I could ask for in consistency and accuracy. All the elevations out to 1100 tracked with the Hornady app set for 2900 letting it adjust for temp based on 4831. Ran it in a local match this past weekend and had no issues that I could blame on the load or the gun.

The groups at 100yds gave the best averages I've shot in any gun for a while. I ended up with a load giving an average of 2900, with single digit SD. However, with the scarcity of H1000, I didn't pursue a load with that at the time. That showed potential and could reach mid low to mid 2900 with the 147 in the 24' barrel. I managed to find a single pound of H1000. I tried 4831 and didn't even make 2900 on my first round of testing. It did look like there would be a very good node around 2850. After fireforming, I managed to get enough Retumbo into the case to get to 2900, but at that point the case was so full it was causing seating depth issues. I used 4831 to fire form and found an accurate fireforming load at about 2780 with a 147 ELD. When the re-barrel was done around Christmas I started working up loads. I had Retumbo and 4831 on hand and wanted to try those. I had my TRG 22 re-chambered to 6.5 Addiction last year (24' barrel, but I also had a 26' made at the same time so I can replace without the wait).
