    25/06 powder selections

    So have a couple of hundred cases to anneal, prep and sort tonight, have a couple hundred 90gr Sierra gameking projectiles, a box of Swift Scirocco II still to play with.

    The rifle is a Ruger M77 that was trued up by Harvey Westland many many moons ago, it then was suppressed by Robbie and in doing so had the barrel reduced to just a tad over 20 inches.

    Looking through the Sierra load data that the hunting load is the Viht N150 @49.2 giving 3500 which is great, given i would expect to achieve less, but is no use to me for say the 100 or should i look to go to the 117gr / 120gr range

    However IMR4831 has a bit off application over a wider range of projectiles, has anyone else used this as a go to for the 25/06 over a number of projectile weights?
