Hoping that Doc or Scotty or some good soul would provide me some service, I have a ruger hawkeye with a 22" pipe. I have the following powders, R19, H414, IMR 4350, Hunter, IMR 4064 and R17. I know Nosler has data for all but R17 that I have seen. What about R17 with the 120 BT? how does that look? infact a run on all sutibable would be awesome! thanks, I would love to hear any and all fovorites. thanks
 
I would love to have a 260 Hawkeye


My Rem 700 Mountain 260 Rem is silly accurate with 43.5grs H414 and the 120 NBT
 
thanks Heath, maybe we should trade rifles:) I have actually thought about you, I knew you wanted one of these hawkeyes. thanks

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 59000 psi, or 406 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 110 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !

7 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 90%. These powders have been skipped.
