Light Bullets in 6.5x47

[cawt0123]

Has anybody tried any 100 gr Ballistic Tips in 6.5x47? I have a Remington 700 being rebarreled with a 1 in 8 twist Krieger and like the idea of having a high velocity load for this bullet to shoot crows and coyotes, then shooting the berger 130 vld for paper and deer. Do you think this bullet would even work in a 8tw and if you have used it what loads did you use?

I'm curious about this too. Almost like having 2 differnt rifles.

I shoot 6.5X250 ack. which I have down loaded to 47 velocity with 107 gr bullets . They shot well with an 8 twist barrel at 100yds . I would not use them for benchrest however I would shoot them for crows and coyotes . TR

I have a 260 with 20" barrel 8 twist..xp100 rec....bullpup stock...shoots a DOT at100 with 95 vmax at 3200 fps...
Previously it was a 264 on a Rem action that shot very well at 1k using smk 142...dont remember vel...quick twist can shoot light bullets...slow twist can be overloaded......
