decided on the LEM #22

---

I recommend one of the LEM Dual Grind units. LEM Dual Grind

I have the #22, and you almost can't feed meat faster than it can grind. Dual grind eliminates having to grind in 2 sequential grinder plate stages..... grinding, catching in a meat lug, and then feeding it through the grinder again. You can also just "single grind" by placing the "stuffer plate" inline instead of a second grind plate.

there is no such thing as "no nitrates". The term means they don't add artificial nitrates. Meat has naturally ocurring nitrate. In addition, they can use celery juice/powder (or something similar) as a natural nitrate additive. Some places will also just use more salt (as has been done for the history of meat curing).

They can do this and still call it "nitrate-free" or "uncured."

My guess is that they are using some "natural" nitrate additives and just playing word games.

This! They may add celery juice or powder, which is high in nitrates, they're just playing with words since the nitrates are "natural." For example, the first video linked above uses Sausage Maker Ecocure #2. The ingredients for that product include "Natural Vegetable Extract" which is likely celery powder.

I think he is sponsored by Hearty Rise rods. He puts the equipment through its paces. It's crazy the amount of drag he puts on the big grouper.

How exactly does the COAL extend past the SAMMI spec without being jammed in the lands? Are the heavier bullets using a different ogive shape that gives you more COAL length with more of a taper while not getting into the lands? I can understand if you have a custom reamer job that gets you a few more thousandths than spec calls for. But using a prefit barrel, I don't think I'd come across this issue.

---

Tip of the bullet is farther from the ogive compared to another "shorter" bullet. Longer bullets (in general) = higher BC.

6.5 PRC was developed to be used on a short action. If you plan to shoot long/high BC bullets, you may want to consider going to a medium or even a long action, but that was not the intention in its original design. Competition shooters are wildcatting 6.5 PRC brass to rounds such as 7 PRCW & 7LBB, which use the 6.5 PRC parent brass (because Lapua makes great brass). 7 LBB is the new hot wildcat in the F Class world (1,000 yard), and it is what Erik Cortina (and I think his World Championship team) has been shooting.

Impact 737R fits "Remington 700" design stocks. Just remember to match your stock to the bottom metal (short, medium, long).

If you're using it for hunting, you may want to consider the Hawkins Hunter DBM. Hawkins DBM
Here are the magazines that fit the Hunter DBM: Short Actions: Hawkins Hunter Magazines / AICS 5 and 10 round 308 (3901 – 5 Round / 3902 – 10 Round).
So, you can use the flush mags (should fit 3 rounds of 6.5 PRC in magazine plus one in chamber) or 5/10 round mags.

I found 4 lbs of N550 powder I bought during all the craziness and never used it. Seems to be a little faster burning than H4350 but not a lot of data out there. I found a deal on some 100 grain Hornady CX bullets for my .270 and would like to use this powder for those bullets. Anyone here care to run the numbers for me ?

---

I can run it. Some key inputs needed if you want accurate outputs:

1. What’s your COL (cartridge overall length)?
2. Barrel length?
3. Fired case water capacity (grains of water)?

It can be run without these parameters but will be much more accurate with them.

Load data is sparse for the 6.5-300 Weatherby. Using Barnes and Weatherby data I have some loads worked up to shoot this weekend. Does anyone here reload and have a pet load for this? At 85-92 grains of powder per trigger pull I sure would love to have a “this is an accurate and fast enough load” starting point. Thanks.

What powder do you have? Here is a table from QuickLoad. I just grabbed a 140 grain Berger bullet to make the table. I can run a model based on the powder & bullet you choose if you'd like.
