I recently bought some of the new 70g Blitzkings to try out. After putting my inputs into Quickload, it showed that 3900 fps was possible around a max load of RL17. I therefore loaded up a quick ladder starting 10% below listed max charge and worked up in 2% charge increments. I was rewarded with the following when I approached max.


I shot a ladder, and it looked like the -2%, max, and +2% charges all grouped nicely together. I plan to load more around that area and see what shakes out. This load may be hell on crows and groundhogs this summer.

That is bad ass!

75grainers @ 3,600-3,700fps are hell on everything. Can't wait to see what these do for you.

well that sounds about right since barnes loads 80 grainers to 3815 ish.

You got me wondering what I want a LA, long throat 257Robt for when I already have a 25-06.

I have a 25/06 barrel that is a Savage Take off... for the longest time, I have waivered back and forth trying to figure out whether to change it to a 257 Roberts, or leave it the 25/06..

well Kyreloader, you have just made up my mind!

thanks!

I see some 70 grain Sierras in my future...

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRIPPPPPPPPPPPP!

There goes your rifle loony badge !!!!!!!!!

DANG! Hate when that happens.

Think I could get em to 4000fps in my 25 Gibbs?
