Eps bullets

[Mt.Boy]

Thinking of ordering some 106 eps bullets for my 6 dasher and a 6 x47. Just wondering if anyone has any results or opinions on them. I am shooting 105 hybrids at the moment. Just wonder if they will be a improvement. Thanks

I shoot the Roy Hunter 103 and they are super consistent.
Lot of people like the Bart's too.

Thanks for the info.

Not those bullets specifically, but I shoot a good bit of his 30caliber bullets and they are top shelf.

Don't hesitate to order from EPS. I've used them with success and they measure up very consistently.
I do think they will be a vast improvement over the current Berger bullets.
I've found the EPS 106 to be one of the few custom hand made bullets in 6MM that really prefer to be off the lands than jammed.

I’ve been shooting 600 yard matches with EPS 106 bullets in a 6 BRA the past couple of years and they have performed very well. For me they shoot much better than the Berger VLD I used previously.

The EPS bullets measure very consistent, but the points are a little rough so I have trimmed them. Not really sure if it makes a difference but makes me feel better.

They are very good bullets at 600yds and scored well in the few matches I shot in a 6 Creedmoor on F-class targets.

Thanks for all the info. Any advice on seating depth

 

[rardoin]

IIRC I was running them at 2900-2915fps over RL-16 at 0.010" off light touch of the lands.

Where do you order Roys bullets ?

I shoot Jamie's bullets a lot and have had very good luck with them.

 

[Mt.Boy]

Just wondering. Has any one compared them to say vapor trails or Bart’s

EPS bullets are outstanding. They do require a little sorting though. I shot them in the 2017 season and always seemed to get 1 flyer that broke my heart. As with any bullet, extensive testing is required. They are quality but the reloader has to do their due diligence. They will shoot well at 1000. In my case they performed well at 2950 with a .010 jump.

 

[WIB3]

In resent years though I have had great success with the 103 VT. The Hunter and Barts I’m sure would shoot equally as well.

I have had a lot of sucess with Jamie's 106s ever since he started making them.

Thanks. What cartridge do you use them In

Pair of 6 BRXs with Varget.

I know every gun is different. But do they like jump or in the lands on yours

One started at .017 in, now at 1752 rounds I experimented with .003, .006, and .009 additional and an additional .003 making .020 in., where I am at now. With one bump on the tuner shot 4 shoots at 200 yd in .390 last evening. The other is at .014 in at 670 rds. and is good. I have been through 20 some barrels over the years in BRX and all but 2 have shot in. Had 2 that liked about. 020 jump. They are all done0 with the same reamer and 33.4 has been the Varget load of all except for a Douglass 7 .5 twist that was 32.6. Oops, had another that like 33.6. 1 Douglass, 1 Shilen, 2 Krigers, the rest Bartline. I did a lot of testing last year with primers chasing ES. All three competition (1_6 PPC) rifles tuned to ES of 5 or under with 205M, a primer I have never used until now. Spent last winter weighing 2000 of them. Problem is as I get older I find my shooting skills and eye sight starting to go a bit south but my tuning skills seem to be better. Not a good trade off.
