    Default Do your weapon loads appear in our Reloading section?

    The answer could be YES. Basically, these specific threads are here to discuss loads, find loads, and expirement with loads. Once the loads that we discuss are accurate, I will display them in the "Reloading" section of the site. The reason for not just putting the loads in the section is so that members can confirm that they are accurate and not too powerful. Thus causing someone to get hurt or gun damage. This way the loads provided are good for beginners and work for advanced reloaders as well.
    Thanks!

    Default 6mm Remington

    I have one load that I use in my 6mm Rem 700VLS:
    Bullet: 70 gr Nosler Bal Tip
    Case: R-P
    Primer: Federal 210M
    Powder: 47.5 grs. IMR 4350
    Cart. OAL: 2.925"
    Case Length: 2.225"
    Notes: The cartridge overall length is too long for most magazines(have single shot follower in mine)
    This load is 1 grain under max according to the Lyman manual and 70 grain bullet they use.
    This load will shoot 1/2 to 5/8" 3 shot groups at 100 yds. and under 3" groups at 500 yds.
    Optics used on my gun: Leupold 6.5-20x40 VariXIII,Weaver bases,Millet Rings
    I have fired over 200 rounds in my gun and it seems to be very accurate and consistent.
    My F1 Chrony registers an average 3600FPS for 10 shots with 72deg. ambient temps.
    I hope this can be added to our data base. Bob in Indiana

    I've added it to the Rifle database under the 6mm section. Thanks for the load!
    Sounds like you got a nice shooter there.

    Default 222 Remington

    This load is really accurate in my Rem 700BDL-24"bbl
    Bullet--50gr Nosler BT or Sierra 50gr Blitz King
    Case- R-P
    Primer- Fed 205M
    Powder- 20 gr. IMR 4198
    Cart. OAL- 2.225
    Case Length- 1.690
    Notes: OAL is too long for most magazine rifles
    I have single shot follower in mine.
    This load is 1/2gr under similar load that Lyman lists for the 50 Gr Sierra blitz
    Scope is Leupold 6.5-20x40 with Weaver bases and rings
    My F-1 Chrony registers average velocity of 3050fps for 10 shots @ 72 deg.
    This is one of many loads that have proven very accurate in my rifle or my 15"barreled T/C Contender single shot pistol.
