I've got a 7x64 that I'm wanting any load data that you might have in manuals.
There's not alot of data available on the net.
I've had some passed on by @7x64 which is great but really want some factory spec's for any brand projectiles as well.
Cheers
.280AI would have to be close..
That has been suggested before but there seems to be quite alot of factory ammo (Hornady 162 and S@B 139 in NZ) around the world so surely there must be load data specific to the cal in manuals?
Nick Harvey's Reloading Manual brackets it with .280 Remington, 7mm Express, 7mm-06 and 7x64.
The 280 AI is a bit bigger and hotter.
I did some work with one a few years ago and it liked RL 19 ... if you can get it.
PM me your email and I can scan the books pages it and get it to you.

If there was any doubt that @P38 was a proper Engineer.... :thumbsup:
@P38 Cheers for the info!
I think he should be upgraded to a P76 if a Layland is an upgrade!? @P38 :huh:Quote:

Nothing wrong with the old Leyland P76 - it was the only car of that era that you could throw a 44 gallon drum into the boot of.Quote:

Finally took the CZ550fs out for some load development. I've been waiting for Warne QD's to arrive to mount the scope but they still haven't arrived.
I decided to bite the bullet and sight the irons in for something to do.
After a few sighters and rear blade adjustment, I tried to make a reasonable attempt at accuracy.
The first 3 shots were at 50m and looked promising so I moved the target out to 100m.
It was pissing down, safety glasses fogging up and the 1" bull was as hard to find as the Old Fella after a dive for crays in Foveaux Strait in winter! :TT TT:

Very happy with the initial results so will wait for the QD's to arrive, do some final load development if required with the scope and then tweak the irons.
The top round is the hand load at mag length and a 162 ELD-X
The bottom, factory Hornady Custom 162 SST for comparison
Cheers for all the previous input guys :thumbsup:
