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

Those light fast bullets would be great out to 600 or so but the wind does blow a good bit out here and they just dont have the BC

The 123 amax would be nice if it had around. .55 BC.

Thinking about a 7mm still and shooting 150/168 ABLR or 162 amax. If you get those up at 31-3200 there as good or better ballistically then 105 @3300 or 140@3100.

If I went with 6.5 or even 7 I do have a 4 port brake sitting here that could be put to use. 1 rifle for everything from coyotes to elk and steel....

Thks Fotis ! :grin:

I have a few lbs of H5010 - Pretty slow stuff any IDEAS on LOADING it in the 257 WBee ? Anyone :?:

Cheers :) RJ
 
The parameters have changed somewhat and its a tall order to fill with a single rifle.
The 6.5-300 Wby certainly has the performance to cover coyotes, big game and steel out to 1200 yds but at the price of short barrel life and recoil in the 23-24ft lb range.

Muzzle brakes work better the more overbore the caliber. The 6.5 saum might be good too but I'm not drinking the barrel life kool aid. The 6.5 Sherman gets nearly 3200fps with 140's with less powder thenost to get that velocity.
 
Think I made my mind up.

6.5/06 AI with 28" bbl and brake set up for 140 amax. Hoping 3100-3200fps is doable.

I like the idea of just necking down noslers 280 AI down to 6.5. Barrel life, and ballistics should just about be perfect for an all around rifke to 1K pretty easily.

Fast enough for you?

Pretty tuff to beat that Combo unless exctremely windy and it don't KICK very hard either - I think my Combo wins ! :grin: JMO

That is a good combo of barrel life and performance IMO. I would expect 3100-3150fps with 140's.

A 6mm 284 would be fun except for that barrel life.

A 6mm 284 is NOT as good as it should be only beats a reg 6mm Rem by about 50 fps and some times not even ! :shock: It much better as a 6.5 or 7mm ! :) RJ

I concur on a straight forward approach. This round should give a good balance of power, trajectory, lower recoil and barrel life for long range hunting coyote, big game, and steel shooting.
The Nosler 129 gr ABLR will work nicely.

I have the 243 AI and 6x47 Lapua shooting the 105 Amax. The 243 AI going 3180 FPS with 51.5gr of Retumbo and 6x47 at 3040 FPS with 39.5gr of H4350. Both shoot under 1/2".


I am with Brian, either a 243 or 6x47 Lapua would be my bets for a dedicated coyote killer. Light on recoil and there are tons of great bullets for them. After handling Brian's 6x47 Lapua, I am not sure it'd get much better.

That would be a slick set up Jorey. I know I love my 264 running the 140 BT's and AB's at nearly 3200. It does have some recoil, but I can't say it bothers anyone that has ever fired it and I am sure mine is lighter than yours would be built.
