❤❤Love that your reloading your own ,i believe there is some top quality brass you can get nowdays .Also you may see inconsistencies through different times of the year and not be able to figure why ,,i thought the room me and my brother were loading in was dry ,,he bought an electric de humidifier and first night he put it on he sucked over 2 pints of water out of the room and around a pint every 12 hours ,our reloads got way more consistent after that .!!
I would take those 2 best loads, shoot them over a chrono for velocity, ES and SD. Then may take and load +0.5 gr and -0.5 gr on either side to see if velocity, ES and SD improve/get worse to taylor load.
I always enjoy reloading videos and searching for the 'sweet spot' load. I started following the recommendations of the '6.5 Guys' and they have worked for me. More of these, please.
Chasing that one hole group is addicting and expensive. Good luck. Been there done that 😂 Thanks for sharing another great video. Keep up the good work.
I have used that bullet seater for four years now. One of the best purchases I've ever made. The micrometer is pretty darn accurate. Love the handloading videos...you're officially down the rabbit hole now😂
I absolutely love all of my Frankford arsenal equipment. I'm trying to accumulate every piece that Frankford arsenal has. I have the intellidropper, funnel set, hand primer, trickler, bullet trays and the universal seating die set. I love that press you have, Good stuff 🇺🇸👊😎
Great to see your reloads. Would love to watch you mix your reloads in with the factory stuff, say 7mm PRC Precision Hunter vs. a 168 grain Nosler Accubond Long Range reload
I'm loading for my 6 Creed PRS rifle. I'm running the 108 Hornady. I've got a few videos up while I was working up the load. I am very happy with my results over the factory boxed stuff. If you ever make it to Oklahoma, come on out and we'll have a handloaded 6 Creed shoot off!! See who can make the best groups. Good contest!! Have a great week, sir!
Started a long time ago 30 plus years! Started exactly as you. I didn’t really care about speed. Reloaded simply because I couldn’t buy bullets for a .264 win mag. But I quickly learned how to build them. Looking back now I was way over pressure and speed. But it sure was a shooter. Now with the knowledge of google I have refined with good equipment and better knowledge. Still use a stair step with great results. I love this please keep it up!
Nice shooting rig!👍. You're doing great on your reloading. Just starting to get back into reloading after about 20 some years😁. It's awesome shooting your own ammunition and it's accurate.
I bought a Ruger American Predator in 6 Creed, put it in a Boyd's adjustable stock, mag conversion, 20 MOA EGW rail and a Athlon 8x32 scope. With almost any handload it shoots in the .3's, really likes 103 ELDX's.
I like these reloading videos. I would go with group 3. I don't reload yet, but I want to. I'm interested In loading 156 grain norma bullets for my 6.5 creedmore. And hard cast bullets for my 35 remington. Thanks for all you do!
Awesome video. Amazing groups, look forward to more.. You should make a deal with heavy metal and either get a small con-x or maybe build a small shedd that can be locked that has all you range stuff in it then the only time you can forget it is when you first get it.
Those are some really good groups. 30-06 and 308 take the same diameter bullet and imr 4064 powder is what I use for those two for hand loads and there very accurate the boolots I use are 150 grain nosler patricians and 165 nailer ballistic tip
My Weatherby 340 experienced a stock split behind the pistol grip during the first range session. I bought the rifle used so it might have been cracked when I received it. My gunsmith found me a nearly new replacement Weatherby stock for a very good price. Your split might be repairable by a competent gunsmith but possibly not. Pillar block bedding and magnum style cross bolts have been good for accuracy and long term reliability in my 300 Weatherby. For after market I would look at McMillan or H S Precision if available. You could use a stock like that for hunting and still have the looks of your original stock with a cosmetic repair for aesthetics. I'm considering shooting the 340 on an elk hunt but for now am staying with the 300s and the 180 Accubonds. If you decide on a replacement stock try posting its model, description and price online and maybe some of us will help you get it
You might do it and we just can’t see it, but lesson learned by me when I started loading, mark each case with what load it is. I do ”1,2,3,ect” so if I drop or knock that cartridge box over, I know what powder charge is in them. Marking the box itself is great, but one whoops and there goes all your hard work if the individual cartridges are not marked.
Benchrest shooters, who, naturally, are shooting for record (group size) and typically measure their groups to the thousandth of an inch, NEVER shoot out the aim point. Midway used to sell pasters that you could stick to anything. I used heavy stock paper or even a potato chip cardboard box. It's a small black/white square with a circle below for the bullots to land in, perfect for high zoomie scopes. Oh ya, cronoghraph. Was going to comment in last vid. Move it out from under that roof. You'll catch more readings.
Another thing you can see with these loads is your accuracy nodes. Your groups started with .9x then got down to .5x then went back to .9x. with your power charge steps of 1.2 grs that indicates that going up another .6 grs may hit the node again. You can keep increasing velocity along these nodes till you reach your max load, then fine tune from there.
You have 2 groups there pointing you in the right direction. Work a few more loads up and get back to the range, preferably with the chrony LOL. You'll have a ridiculously good varmint load in no time 😊
Gave up on the V-Max bullets have had couple either melt the tips or just start to Designate in flight and tumble/keyhole though the targets all at 100 meters during sight in left 2-3 inch long slices and splatter all over the targets,.243 win 87 grain bullets,pushing them pretty hot,they are plenty accurate when they didn't have a problem,there is alot of info about this problem with a bunch of different Hornady bullets all with the light red tips,the dark red tips are heat resistant on the ELD's,In my 6.5 and 6 creedmoors I only use Vapor Trail bullets about the best bullet going
You must use a Chronograph when doing reloads. Group sizes do matter. But Velocity, SDs, & ESs are more important than just group sizes. Get yourself the new Garmin Chronograph. Just keep it in the range bag.
Told you. Now you are hooked. When I reload I'm normally looking for groups. Your reload manual will give a round about on the speed. You can shoot 4000fps but if it don't group and you can't hit then what does it matter. Doesn't matter to me that you forgot the chronograph again. I've been doing this for years. I just enjoy the videos. Especially the new reloading ones.
I have been reloading for years. You need to make smaller powder increments. To work out a load for accuracy, try starting to raise powder increments .3 grains every 3 loaded bullets. 44.0 44.3 44.6 and so on. You will find an accurate round may take longer but works well.
I would like to see a smaller increase in power from the 40.7 I think you may have jumped over a good load. I usually do a .5 gap in powder. Thinking of trying a different pill in 6.5 other than the 147g ELDM.
Sometimes the fast ain’t the most accurate load. Pick your middle 2 loads and start working a load in between them along with bullet seating depth and you’ll find something that gun really likes. Those are fine hand loads though.
The chronograph will really help with checking your SD and es on a given load your right on track with the 5 shot group way more accurate than 3 shot groups good luck reloading ad's a lot of enjoyment to shooting 😂
I would load a group in between the two good powder charges. Maybe a 41 grn and a 41.5. Nice job. I load 0.1 grn different to get my loads. This is after I get a close to what I want to see.
I would test further at around 42.1 and would test 41.9 41.7 and then 42.3 and 42.5 Then i would take the highest Charge that shoots well with 6mm Creed with 58gn VMax its a Varmint smoker so you looking at max speed that shoots well
Pretty fancy shooting as always If you are not careful you will get hooked on reloading it is like an addiction I have heard. Not that I have any crazy addictions like reloading No never
Good groups! I would take the 42.1 and work my way up to 43.3 by .3 of grain and you’ll find your accuracy and velocity node. On another matter when are you going to test the Cortina muzzle/tuner brake?
Pretty dang good, especailly since you are a newb at relaoding. The light bullets kind of defeats the purpose of the 6creedmoor though. You are right about relaoding being rewarding, I had much rather do that iny my spare time than watch some prima dona sports figure or tv in general. Great video, keep at it you will only get better at it. Been reloading for over 40 years.

It seems like the lower ones are better then the high loads

Yes sir already for some FA equipment, I'll be getting more...
Hello I know this is not on this video but when you mount a scope what torque valves do you use and thanks again for getting back to me
@@terrytubbs4909 I use wheeler torque wrenches
I would take those 2 best loads, shoot them over a chrono for velocity, ES and SD. Then may take and load +0.5 gr and -0.5 gr on either side to see if velocity, ES and SD improve/get worse to taylor load.
Need to see some direct comparison to this and the 243!
Awesome! Gotta see more of this. Great loading and great video. Squirrel.
I always enjoy reloading videos and searching for the 'sweet spot' load. I started following the recommendations of the '6.5 Guys' and they have worked for me. More of these, please.
Nice. A little extra enjoyment when they’re your reloads. I like this format. Keep em comin.
Thanks for watching
I like the handloading videos. The groups are looking good.
I'm digging the reloading videos! Thanks! Wish I could be catching the premieres. Life is a little crazy right now.
🙏🙏🙏 appreciate you watching
Love reloading. You shot your dots out. Great video.
Chasing that one hole group is addicting and expensive. Good luck. Been there done that 😂
Thanks for sharing another great video. Keep up the good work.
i shot a .097 (5 shot) over bullet diameter at 50yd. lol, that target is on the wall
I have used that bullet seater for four years now. One of the best purchases I've ever made. The micrometer is pretty darn accurate. Love the handloading videos...you're officially down the rabbit hole now😂
Enjoy watching group testing on anything!!!
Looks like you’re getting your Reloading’s going your way. Thanks for sharing your videos. 👍🇺🇸
Awesome to see you reloading!
Heyo! Appreciate you bigtime

Looks very rewarding. When im ready for another hobby reloading might happen.
Great to see your reloads.
Would love to watch you mix your reloads in with the factory stuff, say 7mm PRC Precision Hunter vs. a 168 grain Nosler Accubond Long Range reload
Like to see some 308 copper reloads. Just a tip usually get better groups if you clean your barrel from lead to copper bullets
Awesome results. Well done on your success and progress on accurate reloads.
I'm loading for my 6 Creed PRS rifle. I'm running the 108 Hornady. I've got a few videos up while I was working up the load. I am very happy with my results over the factory boxed stuff.

These are the videos I love. Good work.
Load development is always interesting, nothing beats a peaceful afternoon on a press.
Just getting started on reloading great video nice shooting gun you have
Cool video good choice for powder keep them coming 👍 👌

Love this format, as I am just getting in ta reloading as well. I would like to see one using different powders to compare.
THIS. ! Is a really fun VIDEO. Of your hand loads ! Be sure to give us all the details Of the different recipes. !!! Thanks
Nice shooting rig!👍. You're doing great on your reloading. Just starting to get back into reloading after about 20 some years😁. It's awesome shooting your own ammunition and it's accurate.
I used to work with a reloader that used a micrometer to set verify his bullet depth in the case.
That shoots fine, I’d be happy with it, great stuff sir, cheers Yogi 🤙✌️
Great video; need more handloading content!
I bought a Ruger American Predator in 6 Creed, put it in a Boyd's adjustable stock, mag conversion, 20 MOA EGW rail and a Athlon 8x32 scope. With almost any handload it shoots in the .3's, really likes 103 ELDX's.
Throwing DARTS! This gets me excited. I think I want to try this soon!
Nice job Hoot!

Another Great Video Adam 💯💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Awesome video. Amazing groups, look forward to more..
You should make a deal with heavy metal and either get a small con-x or maybe build a small shedd that can be locked that has all you range stuff in it then the only time you can forget it is when you first get it.
I really like that rifle… that’s pretty awesome… thanks buddy…
I would take the best 2 and play with powder and seating depth. Love the content.
Those are some really good groups. 30-06 and 308 take the same diameter bullet and imr 4064 powder is what I use for those two for hand loads and there very accurate the boolots I use are 150 grain nosler patricians and 165 nailer ballistic tip
It’s just the total satisfaction of loading your own and be more accurate than factory and cheaper.
Varget is terrific powder for accuracy in several calibers for me.
Great job
🙏🙏🙏
Keep em coming WTW- enjoy these videos
More to come!
Enjoyed your reaction the most! Keep it up Adam, you’re already hitting great groups!

Great video I would like to se more 243win loads as I'm looking into getting into reloading myself and getting the frankford reloading equipment.
You need to run a .1 GAP between the two best groups. I think you should end up somewhere around 41.3 if I'm a betting man.
I like these videos bud.
Good loads .
Benchrest shooters, who, naturally, are shooting for record (group size) and typically measure their groups to the thousandth of an inch, NEVER shoot out the aim point.

Like the video get that Crono out there 😂joking buddy great video great shootin and great hand loads like to see some 7 mag videos 👍
Good video Adam fo more on this rifle go with your best group load and get the chronograph out.....
Great groups not sure if it was the Ammo or the weapon !!
Nice video, I'm just learning to reload too...

I reload and like this style of video. Thanks !!
Thanks for watching
You have 2 groups there pointing you in the right direction. Work a few more loads up and get back to the range, preferably with the chrony LOL. You'll have a ridiculously good varmint load in no time 😊
These are my favorite videos I want to see what seating depth will do to them I reload mostly 243 and 223 plus pistol ammo

Nice groups.
👍👍
I like the last group. I know many may say I am dumb but the holes were much less ragged. Ugly holes often mean more speed to get what you need.
Reload everything from on!😂
Wow WTW very impressive! 🇺🇸👊
Good groups
Good groups. Great video. Velocity & target distance may dictate which charge weight is best.
Great content WTW!
🙏🙏🙏
I wished Tikka would build a rifle in 6Creed already. Might just hafta settle for a .243
You must use a Chronograph when doing reloads. Group sizes do matter. But Velocity, SDs, & ESs are more important than just group sizes. Get yourself the new Garmin Chronograph. Just keep it in the range bag.
30-06 Reloading with varied boolot grains.
Wtw try doing some loads with the 109 Bergers I think you'll like them results great shooting
I already have videos with those :)
@@WHOTEEWHO did not see I'll have to go through and check it out

On the 40.7 g there was 2 in the same hole and then 3 that touched.
Good job! What kind of eye pro you using? I like them
Hmm. I think Milwaukee glasses that day
42.1. You put 3 in the same hole
I've used varget in my 25-06 handloads with similar results 👍
I have a hunch that Imr 4064 would be really good for that load. Now I’m expecting a prairie dig video next with this set up to come later?
That would be awesome
Hey who tee whoo what about doing a video on your 7mm-08 Barnes bullet 150 grain ttsx just a thought
Nice load development. Velocities?
those 58 grain v-max would be great for foxes and coyotes and bobcats
Yup
I would test further at around 42.1 and would test 41.9 41.7 and then 42.3 and 42.5
Then i would take the highest Charge that shoots well with 6mm Creed with 58gn VMax its a Varmint smoker so you looking at max speed that shoots well
