6mm and 6.5 Creedmoor 500 yards paper test

everyone welcome to the x-ray hope you're having a wonderful weekend we are out here on the range I've got the AI Sarah coded the barrel and it is them the six millimeter Creedmoor I'm shooting 41.5 grains of H 4350 I want to get a paper test done at 500 yards so I have a camera downrange on the 500 yard target I'll be shooting at the top bull's eye now Street lock and with all the environmental that's saying it's about 2.2 I'm just going to put 2.1 in it so I don't shoot over the target just to make sure but let's go ahead and see what we can get for grouping with these hand loads shooting the 108 eld match then what we're gonna do is we're gonna get Rick on his tikka shooting his hand loads which is 41 grains and the 65 Creedmoor and we'll see what it does or how its influenced by wind at 500 yards alright so let's get started so what I'll do is I will do a five shot group Rick is going to be on the spotter hopefully I can get on paper with the first shot winds kind of gusting all over the place today but that's one of those things you just have to take into account I'm gonna hold dead-on I should probably be putting some wind in it but we're good you cannot and that was cold bore included it's alright I'm just looking for the grouping so I do know that I'm good on it so when we get Rick on his 65 what we'll do is we'll confirm him on the steel first at 500 to make sure he impacts it and then he'll go for a group on the bottom rope to have targets ready [Music] alright guys so this is my 500 yard target with that 6 millimeter Creedmoor 500 yards 41.5 grains age 43 50 108 eld I have three in the bullseye here and that is a one inch circle inside of here this is one inches okay across here so I've got three here this one and this one I don't know what happened there but we'll get a measurement on it and see what the group ended up being alright I hope you enjoyed that comparison like I said it's not really comparison comparing the two rifles as much as it is the caliber you know I was a big fan of that 65 Creedmoor and I still am however I think that six millimeter with that load works well for me I'm sure I could push it a lot hotter but I don't see the need to because that's just gonna diminish the barrel life so hopefully you enjoyed that remember those were 500 yards and on both rifles those were clean cold D copper bores now Rick did take one shot to confirm that 500 on the steel but on the AI that was clean cold D copper first shot and that's that one that went a little low left the group still measured just at 1 MOA because it was 5 inches and so at 500 yards that came out to exactly 1 him away so I'm happy with that had an up meant for the first round cold bore that would have been a much tighter group probably around a quarter MOA like share subscribe hopefully you guys were liking this comparison I've got a lot of information coming up on the 65 Grindle I've been doing some hand loads with that some testing out of distance and see how that turns out stay tuned
