Sulzer 6.5

[Bearcatrp]

Not yet on suppressed. Won't be out of jail until july or august I hope. I reload so ordered just the bullets. Graf and sons reloading has them. https://www.grafs.com/retail/catalog/pro...ctId/25548 . Did 50 rounds today to break it in according to faxon web site. Grouping sucked. Only went with 26.0 grains of 8208 for the break in. Did both SST and match. Match grouped better but still not good. Its breaking in so didn't expect much. Going back next week to work up loads. Thought a local store had commercial ammo on hand but they didn't. Like to zero with commercial then do my reloads to match or do better. Plus the commercial if groups better, then I know its my reloading not doing good. Didn't hink match bullets would do well killing animals. May have to look into that. Brass is getting beat up a little bit but since its braking in, kind of expected it. Hope it calms down some. Had new hornady brass I got on my reload order. Prefer them over most. Didn't want to spend the bucks on Lapua brass, which I use on my bolts when doing initial reloading for my bolt rifles. Am enjoying less recoil than my AR308, plus a lighter rifle in general. Have 1 more week to get out and get my load development done before I am out for 3 months. Surgeries suck. Out of 10 shots on the SST's, chrono'd 2127 fps avg, the match did 2118 fps for 10 shots. Hope to see better as I build them up the latter.
