    6.5x57AI loads

    Anyone got one or similar like a 6.5x55AI with loads that they may like to share? I have W760, N160, 2208, 2209, 2213sc, federal 210 match primers projectiles 120 to 140 grain.

    Thanks Jeff.

    I used winchester brass, fed large rifle primers and got extractor marks at around 49.5 grains with 760 using 140 amaxes.
    @zimmer knows his stuff though, very helpful.
