Specifically would like to hear about experience with the 6.5 127 LRX, but any experience related with the bullet in any diameter would be appreciated.

Terminal effects at various ranges and shooting characteristics are both of interest.

Good info, and cool pics.

It's March and I need something to do. Playing with a new rifle and various loads might be all I've got for the next few weeks.

Great bullets, if you want to go a little heavier for caliber. I shoot the 145 7mm in the 280 AI. Shoots to the same POI as the 140 TTSX. They open just as fast or faster than the TTSX. Obviously, penetration is never an issue.

Thanks guys...

I'm going to give several bullets a whirl over the next few months. Thinking that these will have to be tried.

Seems like bullet availability is better in general, but still can be difficult to find specific items when needed.

Been experimenting necking up brass as well. Mixed results.
