I just about got the new sako finnlight 6.5x55 going. I bought a leupold vx3 2.5x8x36 and my optilock ringmounts should be here next week.
I will probably go with forster dies and cci br2 primers. For brass should I use the Norma or lapua?? Also has anyone have a good load using h4831sc?? I tend to prefer the Hodgdon powder because of consistency. I build the loads in dallas and hunt them in south/west texas and northern missouri very broad temperature but even greater humidity differences.
Bullets I have been leaning toward 125 nosler partitions and 120 BT. I might also try 130 ttsx or scirocco??
Also was it is the hottest/best factory load you can buy??
