I am extremely disappointed you aren't making videos this year. I've sat down for hours watching your videos. No one on the internet has a better reloading channel. So thank you for the videos you have for us. Still very sad. Thanks again brother!
Plus one on this!!
After sighting in at 60 feet, I could easily cover 5 shots with a nickel czcams.com/users/postUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL ! Truly a pleasure to shoot! Scope was easy to adjust for eye relief. Only problem the varmints must have seen it delivered lol!Update: So impressed with shot groups at 30 yards I purchased a Hammers 3×9 with adjustable Objective scope! Now a true nail driver!
So glad this series isn't going to end. Thanks Johnny.
Then it ended 🙂
Yes been looking forward to more in this series
It's definitely a good day. I would like to see more of the 300 Win Mag. I am curious about how that chassis is working out. It is about the only thing I can find for my Savage 111.
You always have THE best and informative loading videos anywhere around period... thanks for the very hard work you put into this craft!
Crazy man, I've been watching your old 223 videos for the past week. Now you throw up a new one. Must be a message from the reloading gods.
Absolutely love this 262 series
Wow, just bought a box of the 77grs yesterday and been watching the old series the last few days and bam!! You put this out today... Thanks JRB
Great to see your .223 vids again.
Keep up the great work Johnny!
Thank you for ALL the lessons brother! Just started reloading, and ran into some problems that I may not have realized if it werent for you. Saved me from blowing my freaking face off! Keep it up!
WOOOOT just what I was wanting to load some heavy 223!! Thanks Johnny!
I'm getting great results with N140 in my Colt M4. Velocity is unfortunately low due to the 16" barrel. Twist is 1in7. N540 looks promising too. Great video! Your time is appreciated!
Your channel is my favorite on you tube. I was watching this latest video and was continuing to evaluate your integration of the shot marker system. The way you are currently including the data is very good and was a lifesaver when the camera went down. Keep up the great work.
I think it's great to have you back and cranking out videos. I like the addition of your shot spotter to the mix and the new crono provide great information. The one think I like to see added is the SD to the info added at 39:05. Thanks you for your efforts it is greatly appreciated.
Hope the new year has treated you well. Love the MK262 videos. Your guidance has been invaluable!
...been playing catch-up with the series, what a brilliant piece of reloading research and data, great effort and much appreciated!!
Johnny.....
You are doing a bunch of awesome stuff with your channel. I enjoy all of it, but this Mk262 clone series is UNFINISHED.
Glad to see this series back in action. Great stuff!
These are incredibly informative videos, Shawn. Still didn't keep me from buying 10 different types of powder.. LOL.I'm still doing tests myself, to see what works best in my rifle and pistol. But, after 40+ years of reloading, I have still learned a lot watching you. Thank You 🙂
Wow my mouth dropped when I saw the groups for the Varmint load. Nice velocity too!
Johnny, These cloning videos have been incredible useful to me! I have saved a lot of time and money because of you. I have watched most of your video's several times. many thanks brother. Please come back and release some videos.
Just took my mk12 out to 1000 yards today! 24 grs of tac, wcc brass, rem 7 1/2 primers, 2.26 oal. With suppressor I'm pushing them out at 2790 on a cold day. 45 mins of adjustment!!
I can’t believe your getting that velocity with only 24gr tac. Who made your mk12? 24.8 gr tac I’m getting 2760
@@keithreinert5835 HCS. I ordered it about 2 years ago. And do you run a suppressor?
I hope your videos never end, they are very useful and educational!👍👍
I love this freakin video series! I was hoping for more vids!!! Thanks
This was great! Watched the whole series up to this point in 1 day!
Really enjoyed this series. I have been doing pretty much the same thing trying to find a good load for the 77gr Sierra and you have given me lots of leads. I don't have all the powders you tested but I do about half dozen of them. Big thanks. 💯👍
I just became a Patreon and this was the video I was hoping you would do soon!
I would love to see a video showing how you create your targets. I like how you space out each circle. Loved the video.
I purchased a woa 20 inch varmint barrel in November. Realy appreciated this video. As I haven't had a chance to break it in yet. 👍👍👍
Johnny are one of the best I.ve seen as to show the difference. Real good
Luckily for me, i recently found your channel and watched the whole series on this load. I'm starting my journey this year and this is the exact load that I would like to clone. The matches I shoot, I am limited to an 18 inch barrel, so it'd be sweet to get it up to 2800+ish. Thanks for basically being my professor of loading!
0m zee
I have 2 shooters world powders being delivered tomorrow. Totally looking fwd to getting some loads worked up.. good to see a new video..
Yes! Perfect timing Johnny! Reloading today
Lol same. Im doing some 45ACP with some spitzer projectiles
LoL same here walked out to the bench and Voila ... 357 Rem Max here
Dido I just finished some 6.5mm CM pet loads and was gonna go shoot em and BAM Johnny puts out a dam Video so of course I have to watch it and now it’s dark outside 😫😫🤦🏼♂️🤪👍
I’ve had the best results with H4895, of course I’m not cloning the mk262, just shooting accurately
Such a great series JRB, the addition of the new target system with impact velocities and on demand group sizes is fantastic. That new barrel is a great shooter. The .45” group you shot with the ladder of powder charges made me giggle watching that. I thought to my self next he could just charge the case with lee dippers and that powder and still shoot a 1/2 inch group. Really makes me ponder that FX120i scale purchase I made. Lol. Anyways heck of a job and this series and video is great.
Yep I've been around a while. Don't blow your face off! I just got in from the shooting range, and saw the bell! Nice!
Me too, still got my face.
So, have we declared a legit “clone” yet ? Power Pro Varmint looks like a winner 👀
Thank you Johnny!
Love this series, thanks for sharing
Excellent series. Excellent channel. Still waiting on the final results. I thought varget would have done the trick and was amazed with the xbr 8208 results.
Wow those shots with 6.5 staball would have all stacked up in the same spot! Interesting for sure!
✌🏼😎👍🏼
I just bought a pound of staball 6.5 and I plan on loading up some of your mk262 loads. Can't wait to try them out.
Always enjoy the videos!
Enjoyed the results! I have used bedding compound and release agent to bed the seater stem for various bullet shapes, this helps with VLD bullets and the LESS vld ogive of bullets like the 77g SMK. This is simple and easily accomplished with 5 minute JB Epoxy, and any kind of wax as a release agent.
Keep these going!!! I love these videos
I am late to your channel. Great information and thanks for the time to do all this. I have had same results with BLC-2 as you had. Experimenting now with H335. Haven't seen you try H335 unless I missed it.
YUS! Johnny's back! Just put a Larue MBT and new Nikon 4x12 on my old 1999 era Bushmaster HBAR target--I can't wait for it to stop snowing so I can get to the range. It was 1 MOA with the stock 8 pound trigger so I'm looking forward to getting it sighted in and seeing what it can do.
Snow won't stop me. Rain on the other hand will. I hate walking through the quagmire one of the ranges I go to can become.
The Winchester 6.5 powder is designed for the 308 family of cartridges. It's a little to slow burning for anything smaller than that in my opinion. Great videos. Been watching for years.
I have to admit. Sometimes I start a video I've already watched and go to bed. Just so I can support this channel.
Finally! Love these vids!
I just picked up those same calipers last week. I dig them a lot for the price. Didn’t know anyone else used them for reloading
Yes! I loved that series! Watch out for pressure in a shorter throat.
Can't wait for more!!!
wow who TF downvotes a video like this? awesome videos man. you have gotten me into reloading.
Popping in here over 2 years later in hopes the next part of the series rolls out!
Thank you Johnny, watching the Mark 262 Mod 1 series convinced me that I should find that reloading equipment I bought and learn how to reload. Unfortunately it's a bad time to start to get into reloading, or anything firearms related. But I did manage to find some of the Sierra Match King 77gr OTM, lapua cases and an 8lb jug of Accurate 2250. But the place I got the stuff from ran out of the powder within 24 hours after I bought it. Hopefully they only sold what they had and didn't over sell it. I'll see if they ship it out. Now if I could just find primers. Those seem to be out everywhere 😢
Now I just have to find my reloading kit in the garage and see if I can't get a bench to mount it to.
Yes, I love this S
Enjoyed the video.
Excellent groups!
I am building a MK12 clone with a Centurion Arms MK12 Barrel and have a few hundred rounds of 77gr black hills on the shelf waiting to be sent. I can't wait to determine how well it groups! I've just binge watched this series and seriously wish I had gotten heavier into reloading before COVID smacked our industry upside the head.
I find that of all the powders I've used for .223 and 5.56 H335 is by far the best for speeds I'm looking for. I enjoyed that video in the series
Benchmark is fast too
I ran a test of crimping as well, sierra 77 and on hornady 55. Light/med crimp gives me average of 50fps on 77 and 70fps on 55 I used imi brass so many variables but fun. I'll do it again just to make sure it wasn't one time thing.
You could try an adjustable carrier too to see if that will help with the over gassing. I think gemtech and bootleg both have options. Great video as always! Can't wait until I get my reloading setup going.
Another great video. I would love to see some 350 Legend videos if you ever decide to start doing load workups . Bear Creek Arsenal has a cheap 350 Legend upper. I've had some decent groups from factory ammo.
I like all reloading videos but I can't figure out why the 350 legend even exists. Don't get me wrong I hope you enjoy yours just why get a 350 legend when 450 bushmaster already exists. If it's to much just load it lighter. That's assuming you have an ar platform. If you had a bolt gun or lever gun I think theirs just better options on the same thing. So after all that I'm really curious to why you choose the 350 legend? Maybe you see something I don't.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
An interesting observation: Your best group was from the StaBall pressure testers. That is quite interesting since each load had a different powder charge.
One factor is certainly that you single loaded the round almost completely into the chamber before closing the bolt. That means there were none of the normal feeding stresses on the bullet.
When shooting for accuracy, I always single load that way, even on my bolt guns. Feeding from a clip always seems to open up group sizes a bit.
Well made video, thanks
I really like the shooters world match rifle.
Two in one day. Even better!!
Any way for you to put a top 3 or top 5 load list together? Sort of the best of the best accuracy and velocity wise. I hope this series isn't over. Its great. Thanks for the hours of loading and testing you've done.
I can't wait to see these new powder in valkyrie.
Swiss reload RS50 is awesome with these and 77tmks. 2750fps in a moderate load. Bug hole groups. N140 works almost as well. I load at 2.265 for these but have a custom chamber. 1/8 barrel really needed.
Another great video. Can't wait for you to try this powder in 6.5 Creedmoor. 👍
Roy Kent I 2nd that vote 👍👍😎🦅🇺🇸🦅
Yea & the new 6.5 mm 156 gr burger bullet
Glad I snagged an 8lb jug of SWMR
Keep them coming please
Happy to see the 262 series back, thought we had lost it. Did you mention at one point that 69gr smk are some of your favorites and that you were planning a video with those bullets?
Johnny, check the Grendel forum, there is a guy testing it right now in his 6.5 Grendel. Another good video in the series.
More videos puhlease!! I love it
Just when I thought I was going to bed at a good time
Been watching your videos appreciate them greatly learning a bunch
Have you done a video that features your reloading equipment and bench set up?
Would like to see that
Thanks!!!
Much like a barrel reamer (when you chamber a barrel), we need a reamer for die seating stems so we don't deform the bullet when seating it. You'll have some bullet to bullet shape variation. But make the reamer true to spec.
Have you considered using the Hyskore dual dampener rifle rest? It also comes with a hydraulic trigger actuator.
It is a fabulous rest for load/combination comparison/build. Removes entire human element. Returns firearm to same battery position as long as its solidly mounted to a solid bench. ( I mean hey, you got a spanky doppler chrono...., you need a spanky rest). ;-)
I was on my way to church when I got the notification. Almost didn't go to church lol
Great write up. Ive been using 27.3g of 2000mr for years in my NM and duplicates the 262 well. Id LOVE to see you do a load workup on the 85g RDF. Mag length super at 1k from the 223 is exciting. Got there again with 2000mr but accuracy is just at 1moa but I'm betting there are better options out there.
TY JRB Great way 2 wind down after a busy weekend this is like ASMR 4 me I like that Match rifle my favorite powder I load up ammo for my .308 WIN., .223 REM. & .224 Valkyrie I put together a very accurate coyote load for my .224 Valkyrie 28.6gr SWMR 62gr Hornady BTHP Federal premium brass and federal AR match small rifle primer @ 3303 fps outta 24" Blackhole weaponry barrel I actually like all their powders I use Long Rifle for .224 Valkyrie 88gr ELD,..243 WIN 87gr Hornady Varmint bullets in 6mm creedmoor too up to 108gr bullets and 6.5 creedmoor 140gr bullets and like their Precision Rifle powder for .224 Valkyrie 80gr ELD, .22-250rem and .243 win for the light bullets and their Ultimate and Auto pistol powders for my Nina Ross. Keep up the good work Mr. Johnny

2520 is probably made by General Dynamics in their St. Marys plant in Florida.
Great video! Love watching your videos, they remind me of Project Farm but just in the reloading world! Keep up the great content!
So I can hear the buffer spring, are you running a the stock spring system? I know that the JP silent capture spring system would rectify it haha. Just my 2 cents.
Can't remember if it's Nosler or Speer that lists load density with load data. Many loads specify certain powders that cannot fit into the case with max loads. The density %age really helps you pick max loads using heavy bullets that intrude into the powder space. Prevents distorted casings.
A wylde chamber for .223 is very good for what your doing , my 75 gr hornady match will print under MOA .
It’s been a LONG time 😁
Johnny, I’d like to see you try some faster powders like Benchmark and H335. I’ve had great luck with these in my 18” AR with Hornady 75gr BTHP’s. In my experience 18” and shorter barrels really like faster powders.
I really like N133 too
Been awhile since I’ve checked in on the channel. I’d like to see an addition to the series comparing the Sierra 77gr & the hornady 75gr. Maybe working up the hornady with the “best” powders for the 77gr clone load. 🤷♂️ just thinking out loud.
Your heavier XBR 24.0 load was excellent in previous video. 2769fps .636” SD 7.2
Deviation better than Varmint and match rifle.
I stuck with 77 gr SMK and Varget. It was a touch slow but groups were stupid good. If I remember, thought you had similar results with Varget.
Found that 22.6grns of H4895 in my bolt gun using Berger 77grn OTM blows primers in my rifle.
My opinion is those testing groups were going to be a little off because they weren't tailored to the barrel.
They were still better than factory, which speaks to the "goodness" of the load.
I was hoping a longer vid would be uploaded with the primer plug vid!
In my own testing: And the best powder is "Benchmark".
