Very new to bolt action rifles and I just got my Savage 12F 6 Norma BR. Forgive me for my questions
I wanted to know what you guys/gals suggest for load during break-in. I have 100 new Lapua brass (blue box neck measures around .012), Varget, Berger 80gr and CCI BR4 primers. Do you suggest I FL resize the brass or just expand the neck and resize the neck? I have two bushing right now (.267 & .266) which one do you suggest I try first. Reading the forum, I notice that 30-31gr of Varget should work. Should I even work up a load with new brass? I was reading the 6mm BR section and they say to take new Lapua 6BR case, add a CCI 450 primer, drop in 30 grains of Varget, top it with a Fowler 80gr FB bullet at the lands, and shoot it. Should I seat the bullet to the lands? Will the load I work up with new brass have the same results when the brass is fire formed? Or should I not worry about it until the brass is fire formed? Should I even bother with a chronograph for new brass also? Sorry again for all the questions.
