Has anyone found a 6.5X55 OR 260 Rem load for...
120 gr bullet, IMR 4350 @ 49 grs----in a loading book/on line?
120 gr bullet, IMR 4831 @ 50 grs----in a loading book/on line?
Jerry,
Yes to both questions:
Speer Loading Manual#11, page 153.
Rifle:Swede Mauser Model 94 w/ 18" Barrel(1-7.5 twist)
Maximum Load:
IMR 4831 50.0 grains @2820fps with 120gr Spitzer
IMR 4350 49.0 grains @2788fps with 120gr Spitzer
SD -
Thnx, I don't have Speer #11.
I have older books with 260 Rem & 6.5 Swede-NONE show those loads. My NEWEST manual is Nosler 7, they don't list these charges.
I've been on line Hogdon & Nosler- they don't show those 'charges'. "THEY" list LESS powder and velocities from @2900-3000. AGAIN I can't get near that speed w/their charges.
I have shot 50 IMR 4831 AND 49 IMR 4350--the primer pockets are STILL tight. Velocity with IMR 4350 is pretty decent. All this is 'because' of Denton's Pressure Tested loads. THANKS
Thnx Again, I'll post more as I get to shooting groups. I'm getting there.
Jerry
