Thread: 2506 loads,gear

25-06 Load data from the speer manual for @Boaraxa I have skipped the data for the 85 grain bullet and gone from 100 grain upwards and only listed the powder brands commonly used over here

Testing done by speer with a remington 700 with 24" barrel, CCI 200 primers, max case length = 2.494", trim to length = 2.484, Max cartridge overall length = 3.250", brass = Winchester
C= Compressed load, *= Magnum primer used with this powder (I have excluded this data)

I'm loading 47gr 2209 with 117gr prohunters. Shoots an inch but I think could do better if I put some time into the load development.
