elmer deer · Jun 30, 2006

Can someone give me some load info for the accubonds and rl22, c.o.l, and speed for 140gr accubonds. I dont have a nosler manual and I'm trying to work up some loads for my win model 70 .280rem.
Thank you
Elmer

You might want to try RL19
In my M700 Classic 280 Rem
140 gr PT or BT
57.0 grs RL19
R-P Case
Federal GM210M Primer

Shoots close to 3000 fps and well under MOA

elmer,

Viht N-165 @ 57.0grns ( max, use caution)
Win Nickle Cases
CCI BR-2 Primers
150grn Silvertips
700SS and too like JD under MOA
Only issue is, Viht comes in 2lb containers if it doesn't work, there was a lot of money spent.

jd338 gave you the web page, start at 56gr & work up. In my .280 RL22 performs well but IMR7828 is even better. H4831sc is also good w/ 140gr bullets.

I just did some load development for my Remy 700 Mountain Rifle in 280 Remington. I got excellent results with RL19 and IMR 4350. The tightest 3 shot groups were at .75" with both powders.

I am a real Reloader 15 fan for several calibers. Have used Reloader 19 and 22 for a couple of different rifles. But for the 280 I go with H4831. Excellent accuracy and supposed temperature insensativity.

I cannot say if the temp insensativity makes any difference or not. Never chrony'd the difference or compared accuracy seasonally. I really should try Reloader 22 as many of the 280 shooters on this site swear by it.
