6.5 PRC Load Data

[Kmccord]

For the month of January, I have switched my powder from H1000 to H4831sc, trying to find a load that would repeat using 140gr Berger Elite Hunter. I have found the powder and bullet combo this barrel likes at 54.0gr. the first outing put three in a triangle, the second outing, loaded five and it put the first three on top of each other then for some reason I had a huge flyer, then the fifth came back home. The average velocity with H4831sc is at 2916fps. I have some 147gr ELD-M I plan to start working on, I may try Retumbo, I only have a pound of H4831sc, so I don't want to burn it up looking for another load, and I may switch back to H1000 to see if it will perform using the Hornady. Does anyone have a specific load using 147gr?

Do you have any insight on where your charges were for this during load work up?

Rl-26 -h1000 &N565 I star around 55.5 gns. And work up from there

Thanks I was looking for starting data with Staball 6.5.

N565 is good for these cases
