[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3264123, member: 15054"] I will be using the brass from the bullets I shot. I will measure volume and weight and neck thickness differences and then see how they ultimately shoot. Large pistol primers and for first round testing I will be using IMR 4064 of all things..That powder has done me extremly good in 30-06 .308 and .243 all sub moa loads even at 500 yards and it retains same group size from freezing to 100+. I will use CCI 200 primers for first round testing and see if I can get those bullets .005" off the lands. Hornady dies will be used. All my other dies are LEE. I hope these work out. Jcann I know about lapua cases especially in my .308 I can't get in the upper accuracy node as the case will not hold enough powder so 42-43gr of 4064 or varget is the load. I think 36.5 IMR 4064 for the beginning of the test and be done almost 2.5 gr later. We will see how it works out. If case fill is low I may look at other powders I have. Yes 1:8 twist. [/QUOTE]
