        H4350 is a favorite of the 6.5 CM shooters but it is still very hard to find. I've had good luck with IMR4350 and Superformance on hornady SST and Amax. In the process of working up a load for the 143ELD-x now using IMR4350 m

                      I'm a big fan of TPS. Their picatinny rails are on part with Nightforce and Badger imo, recoil lug milled in the front contact area and all. Great product for significantly less money. The rings are top notch as well, love the no cant design.

                          Went to the range to pick mine up today. Mounted rings, scope, and brake there. Ran a brush through the bore with some hoppes while I mounted everything. Patched it out, mounted the Crux and went to sight in with the vortex 2.5-10 PST mil/mil on top. Found some Hornady 129g interlock on sale last week while waiting for the transfer.

                          After a few shots and a few cleanings I ended up firing 3 final rounds with all three about touching off a crappy rest. This is with factory ammo and not touching the trigger pull weight yet. Already have some 143 eld x to load up.

                          I'm impressed.

                                Yes they did. So the question is:

                                This:

                                Plus this:

                                And Hornady brass. Going to load up a ladder. What's a good starting charge weight?

                                Thanks
