I am just starting to work up loads in a custom rifle custom throated to fit my application and intended projectile.
There is little updated reloading data available with a more current, present-day bullet lineup although I could do it on my own following standard precautions.
Could I give someone some measurements and have someone run some software for some more accurate and realistic loading data to fit my specific rifle?
I'll trade some extra bullets or something for the favor.
Thanks in advance...

Greg, It would be helpful if we knew the cartridge, twist, bullet throated for, intended use etc.. If you have done it, it's probably been done before by someone.
And BTW why does everyone hate F&S? It's a lot better read than Newsweek!

I was trying not to bore the masses with all that info until I found a willing participant...grin...
But for starters the cartridge is a 6x45, R-P reformed .223 brass, 1:9 twist, throated for the 80 grain TTSX to touch lands at 2.55". However, other long'ish 6mm projectiles (SII, Interbond, E-Tip, etc.) would get consideration if the 80 TTSX does not live up to expectations in killing or accuracy...
I'd like some data with Ramshot TAC and H335 and 75 to 85 grain bullets...
Gracias...
