    Remember its a guide, one of several tools you should consider in developing loads. COAL and the water capacity of the cases from your rifle are essential inputs IMO

    6.5x57R would be a great "practise round" that would also be handy for anything up to "medium" game. However I'd be thinking of something a bit more classic and that "compliments" your other...

    The Q/L results with an 18" barrel - 2425 with 27.7gns. Velocity with the Sierra 123gn at 2.26 COAL is the 2430 and pressure just a tad higher - the same for all intents and purposes. You don't...
