May 14, 2018 World Record Attempt Open Sight Shot 2240 yards Ernest Jimenez Unmodified K31 Swiss - 7.5×55mm Swiss - Duration: 18:21. Long Range Shooters of Utah 1,092,267 views.
We have two new hunting projectiles announced for the 6.5mm, one specifically in response to the large number of shooters who have been using the 123gr Hornady AMAX on game (with a ton of success), and another from Nosler.
1st is the 123gr Hornady SST, slightly shorter than the 129gr SST. 123gr Hornady SST Announced
2nd is the 129gr AccuBond Long Range (ABLR), from Nosler. Advertised impact velocity threshold is 1,300fps...well beyond the capabilities of most hunters, as this thing will be over 1500fps at 700yds from a 2500fps muzzle velocity. G1 BC is .561 They also have a .277 150gr with a .626 G1 BC.

Hey guys,
I am digging deeper into the never-ending-precision-ammo-making-techniques. New focus is bullet seating depth. I am wanting to know where your sweet spot is on your AR. Maybe you could use this template? Please let me know!
Bullet type and weight:
Caliber:
Distance off lands:
Barrel length and brand:
I have an AR in .223, 6.5G and 6.5C and am curious to know where yall stand. My tools for measuring ogive show up in a few more days so I don't have input yet. I will be making another thread on seating depth with range results here in the next few weeks and they will include Bartlein, Shilen and Larue:)
