Posted By: HaYen Load data for 6.5 sweed please - 10/21/14
Folks I was looking for some pet loads for 6.5 Sweed in a 1940's Turk Mauser using a 130gr TSX or 140 Berger HVLD.

Currently she shoots lights out with 39grns of Varget behind 120grn NBT. But I have a box of Banes and Bergers I want to try.

Thank you in advance

My T3 shoots 130 TSXs pretty decent with a stout charge of RL-19. approaching the half minute mark. Looking to see what it will do to a moose or deer this year.
Thank you Keith. I'll do a work up.
The Swede doesn't need to be loaded hot to work well. Those long bullets seem to penetrate well and kill well too. Another powder that has worked well for me is H414. Good velocity and accuracy.
Just worked up this load last week.It's a hole chaser.

Barnes 127 gr LRX behind 44grs IMR-4350..its a hummer even out of my short barreled CZ-550
