25-284 QL request 115 BT

[clearwater]

Shooters Pro Shop had a bunch of 115 BT's. I like the weight and BC so got a bunch.

Would like some QuickLoad data.

Barrel 24"
OAL 2.8" (Short action)

Have Reloder 16, 17, 22 and IMR 4350, 7828 series powders

 

[SJB358]

Not around QL right now, but I'd bet you'd be danged close to using 25-06 data depending on the cases you are using. Cool round, looking forward to seeing the QL posted for this.
