BTW once I wring out this BHW Nosler I will be going to the HAGAR conversion brass only because I am retired and have nothing better to do. I already know that the BRASS is the weak spot on this one. I also know that it with the big head and loss of the rebate their may be a minimal amount of capacity gain.
Being able to run the pressures up to 57,000 or so will certainly help things using the HAGAR. It should be able to best the 22X6.8 by maybe 50 FPS at the most but as it stands now the 6.8 variant is far superior in velocity and choice of bullets that can be loaded comfortably.
