Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles load data 6.5x68schuler

Trying to find some load data for 6.5x68schuler for a friend.
He wants to use 130-140gr with Hodgdon powders...Can anyone point me in the right direction please????

First of all What is the twist? This round was (in the past ) sometimes twisted rather slow for a 6.5 mm. It may not stabilize the 140s???? One turn in 9 inches will work if it is a 10 inch or slower????????????

Many of the data sources will give only a few loads and then say that 264 win mag data can be used. There are some loads on Accurate reloading"s site

It is the same round as 6.5x 68 RWS and or Vonhoff Express

After a little rereading of my data base. It appears that the 6.5x68 has about 4 grains more capacity (water) than the 264 Win Mag. Roughly 5% more.
