Excellent. I should have said "high BC, heavy for caliber". 135gr ABLR anyone? 130 AB?

Think we'll finally get a high BC Nosler 257 bullet now?

Nice rifle and nice shooting

Yes, they tell you you can reduce max load by 60%. So if we called 39.5gr max load from quick load, the reduced load would be 23.7 gr. I would feel more comfortable with a published book load for that kind of reduction. How low would you all feel comfortable going? My plan is - #1 looking for a...

A few years ago I'd say yes it's dead, but right now is the good old days for the 300 wsm as far as brass goes. Factory ammo, couldn't tell you

This could definitely be the range load

Thanks all. Could anyone provide a quick load for 6.5CM, 120 NBT, H4895? I have read you can do a 60% of max load with this powder.

I scored some H4895 and would like to plan some reduced loads for my youth hunter. I'm thinking 6.5 CM with 120-130 class bullets. 130 TGK, 120 NBT, 130AB, 129ABLR, any suggestions?

Been using RL17 many years, my last big jug is almost dry... Interested in trying some VV powder I understand it burns much cleaner. Is N550 the way to go for the 180s?

I've always seemed to gravitate to alliant powders. rl26, 19, 17, 22. My big jug of rl17 will be finished this season and wondering what l should move to. Thinking H4350 or RS Hunter.

Per Norma brass - sometimes I see it sold as a "Norma's shooter pack." Is there anything different about a shooter's pack or is it just different packaging?

Well amazingly I do see a bit of brass available. I was thinking it was just new old stock but if Norma (and Hornady) are actually making runs of it maybe things aren't completely lost. 25-06 has never had great brass anyway

I, like many of you, am a 25-06 fan. But I have to wonder what it's future is. It seems to be one of the most neglected cartridges around. You cannot buy good brass for it - Lapua, ADG, Peterson, etc. never has and never will manufacture it. I believe there used to be Nosler brass but they took...

Great thread. I wish the 7 SAUM and 300 RCM were commercially popular today.

Yes sir thank you for the help. And @hunter24605 got me sorted out with the GRT software which is amazing so disregard my QuickLoad requests.

Turns out it may have been an out of spec chamber. It's a SAAMI chamber now. I would still appreciate if anyone could run my numbers in quick load it sure would be helpful for new brass and a short barrel

My fired brass is .345. With bullet seated, .342. A WW shell with bullet seated is .336, for comparison. I wonder if I should just full length resize or use a lee neck collet die on the fresh brash. Some of these seat and feel like they have hardly any neck tension.

Thanks Blkram, what would you back off to?

I just measured 6 shell's water capacity with RO water on my better scale and came up with an average of 81.3gr. Low - 81.2, high 81.5. I measured a WIN case I had no problems with 64gr RL 17 and it had a water capacity of 82.4. I would sure appreciate if someone could tell me what QuickLoad...

I am struggling a little with new ADG brass. I know it is thicker and has less capacity, so I did a ladder from Nosler book load for my 300 WSM of RL17, 180 NAB, REM 9/12M primer starting at 62. I made it to 63.2 and say pressure signs - ejector mark, heavier bolt lift. I saw a velocity...
