    Well I am almost reluctant to post it due to the fact that, I have to take a double take at the chrono, every time I fire one off to check the speed, well here it goes 4700FPS yes that's right not a typo that's done with full case of Varget 60gr+, don't you just love it when you have more powder weight than bullet weight, it almost seems surreal, 25-06 brass is the way to go, and if you don't have any dies use 243 WIN die to resize the neck, it's easy you can't go further than the neck even if you want to it stops abruptly, I have both 6-06 and 6-06 AI dies they sent the wrong ones, and I never sent them back for a credit, I always end up selling to a forum member it's better than returning stuff.

    Tanks Dean

    RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.
