Dungheap got the cute little molly screamers in today.
Man those ought to be a riot! Looks like mid 2400's may be possible depending how nice it plays. Thanks Again, George Last edited by squirrel_slayer; 02-04-2020 at 10:42 PM. |

I can understand you not liking brass that's a bit thinner.

I do have a handfull (and actually 1 made it through the case forming process!! ) I guess I could try one and see how it holds up. I plucked it and a random winchester case that made it through the forming as well just to be on the safe side.

Had another gentleman donate some bullets to try in the form of 22 mag ammo. a 30gr jhp and 30gr vmax
Here's the latest lineup. Man that 30gr V-max just looks too cool! Dug the 40gr armscor jhp and 45gr xtp's out to round out the bunch. So i'm thinking that 30gr v-max is the sweet spot. length is almost perfect for this guy weight is balanced for screaming speed 2270 ft/sec estimated velocity for a 4" and 2450 for the 5.2"(with a very surprising 400 ft/lbs of energy at the muzzle! that's 9mm +p territory and if one were to want to I don't know do something silly like a 7.5" AR build it shows 2700 ft/sec and 485 ft/lbs of energy. then that ahem 16" folding carbine shows 3100 ft/sec 641 ft/lbs......all hypothetically speaking based off a computer model....but time will tell Oh and for those who may be curious the 2 different 22 Mag loads I pulled down had 7.4gr of the finest ball powder i've ever seen! almost half tempted to shove it in a case and try it lol. Oh yeah! Last edited by squirrel_slayer; 02-11-2020 at 11:27 PM. |

Yes, rifle primers, and especially magnum primers, can add significant pressure on these small cases. Back off at least .5g when switching primers till you find out which way the primer change put you pressure wise. |

From what I've seen over time, I'd stay away from Rem 6 1/2 primers if you're getting anything near high pressures. Remington 7 1/2, Federal 205 or CCI BR would be better choices IMO.

Hate Rem 6.5s. They have much thinner cups than the 7.5, BR or 450, and maybe even WSR. I tried them once, and they pierced with loads that were fine with WSR. They pitted the bolt on a brand new Cooper M38 in 22 Hornet.

Sometimes I use a CCI400 on a wildcat with little load info, they will crater bad, blank or pierce a little above 50K PSI.

Ok great info guys. So no go on the 6 1/2's and stick with the cci 400's
