[QUOTE="3800fps, post: 3030091, member: 42309"] I have serious 2506 experience (I currently own 9 of perhaps the 15 passing through my hands)…It is the Nevada cartridge. R19 is the powder for 80 gr,ttsx, 85 gr Noslers. 58 gr of R19/ 80gr ttsx gives me 3800fps from the 24" barrels… 57 gr of R19/ 85 gr Noslers gives 3600fps (Nosler reloading manual load says most accurate load tested) 53.5 gr of 4831 / 100gr bullet gives 3350…(R22 yields the same accuracy but with a little more speed) (Nosler most accurate load tested) Seating depth with 2506 can dial a load in or out… These 3 loads work best in every 2506 I have owned with the correct seating depth a particular gun likes. Expect 5/8ths inch groups…much smaller groups from my Coopers if I take all the time and effort to "necksize/ benchrest technique the brass…but 5/8th works for me out to the extreme ethical animal shooting range I adhere to. Only downside is R19 is temperature sensitive….so I have a whole grain difference between a winter coyote load and an antelope load. [/QUOTE]
