I have a packet of 50gn blitzkings for 223,222 etc that I was trying to sell. Would still like someone to make an offer.

I have 50 of these loaded which I will have to pull apart since the rifle is no longer a 223. The pulled projectiles will be free to a good home.

How do the BKs compare to Vmax and BTs pricewise?

If they are cheaper, I may be interested in a few to develop a load with.....That is if I could be bothered doing more load development :roll:

Has anyone got any 155 .30 cal DYERS that I could have a try of in my 30 BR??

The 155 Dyer is the other approved .30 cal projectile for F- standard I think the class is called.

My 30 BR twist should be quick enough to stabalise them

Would like enough to be able to sight in at 100 and then shot a couple of groups

and then enough to have a go at the 500 Yard Fly targets at little river

or maybe some of the D46 match lapuas in .30 cal- dont know what weight they come in though.

Thanks
later

I have a couple of part boxes of 185 .30 cal Lapuas but not much else left.

there werent as many rounds to pull as I thought, the pulled ones would probably be enough for some load development to see if it was worth buying a box. Missed if its the full box your after send me a PM. Since I expect you and I will plug something together one day we would call these a gift if you give me an address to post them too. They will vaporise stuff out of that swift of yours

Looking for a few differant 6mm pills in the 70-85gr range. Only need to load some dummy rounds to check sutiability and feeding for a project rifle (6x45). Already have Sierra 85gr SP's.

Also have some 30cal 168gr HPBT (Highland i think)
Hornady .224" 50gr v-max
Hornady .224" 60gr HP
Rem .458" 405gr (45/70)
Could spare a few .458" 300gr JHP (45/70) as well


Cheers

Would anyone care to swap 25 or so 50gn .224 Blitzkings for some 40gn either Blitzkings, BT's etc, I'd like to try a few lighter pointy pills in my .222.
