visit Hornady in Nebraska


would like the 6.5x47 Lapua to offer ballistically but cannot in a factory rifle - without going silly with pressures and killing brass. Hornady have designed this cartridge with a nod to the reloader, for once all factory load/recipe data is published and therefore repeatable at home and hopefully true!


I would like to thank Edgar Brothers and OMI for this opportunity to visit Hornady, they were superb hosts and no mention is made here of the great hospitality we were shown both on the range and at the bar. We were invited by the company to attend a local charity ball and it was plain to see the company is a well loved and respected local employer and without blowing anyone’s trumpet, clearly generous to the local economy in hard times. The knowledge gained can only serve to broaden our horizons and reinforce the technical knowledge with which we test our equipment. It all sounds like great fun flying around and using hundreds or rounds of free ammo, wearing out everyone else’s barrels but trust me, it does wear you down, eventually!

They make millions of these, .30 cal FMJ’s,


This machine assembling loaded rounds dates back to WW2 but is still in constant use by Hornady.


Top to bottom, the forming steps of a FMJ bullet in .30 cal.


Would you notice that blemish, talk about attention to detail, this ranked 3rd class.
