Thinking maybe Nosler got the message finally. We're it not for the RDF having a more pointed tip, I would have a very difficult time telling it from the Berger Hybrid. Still haven't been able to locate any 147gr ELDs. None even showing up on gunbot. John ![[Linked Image]](http://i111.photobucket.com/albums/n159/Hondo64d/IMG_0234_zpsceebbsdb.jpg)

John,
I'm thinking the 139 Scenar would look good in that picture....

The 136 scenar has been very accurate for us as well. Lot of good 6.5 bullets coming online.

Kurt, I still have a bunch of the 136's and now using the 130 JLK as well. Pat can be an expensive influence..... grin

John,

Never underestimate your ability to overestimate your ability.

Reading reviews from some of those who were involved in testing as well as a few others, RDF's don't seem to be as sensitive to seating depth as other bullets. I'm still waiting on a couple of items, but will soon be loading for my new 6.5. I think I'm going to start with RDF's.
Start young, hunt hard, and enjoy God's bounty.

If you want, I can send you a 140 custom competition, 142smk, 140 hunting vld and a 140 match burner.
I would not buy something that runs on any kind of primer given the possibility of primer shortages and even regulations. In fact, why not buy a flintlock? Really. Rocks aren't going away anytime soon.

I just did a ladder and then 5 groups of different seating depth in a 223ai with rdfs. I found they shot notably better with a kiss.
