MD,

The problem with this thread is that I stopped load development in my Swede 15 years ago after getting remarkable performance out of R19. Nosler 120 BT's shoot cloverleaf groups, and Partitions in 125 and 140 aren't bad either.

Now you come and give me more choices I have yet to try. I've got to order the goods, work up the loads, go to the range, shoot, contemplate their usefulness in the field, book a hunt, stalk, shoot, gut, BBQ, eat, enjoy a couple of cold ones, all before I can get back to you on your suggestions!!!!!

Do realize how much work you've thrown at my feet? You do this only with the rounds I really adore, like the Swede and the 9.3 X 62 (probably the .300 Savage too).

Troublemaker!
