.204 39gr blitz king load data

[Boisblancboy]

Looking for some actual numbers and load data. I've done a lot of searching but can't seem to come up with much. So I wouldn't mind hearing what you have used and what results you got, the good and the bad.

I use 24.5 gr of Reloder 10x. Seating the 39 Sierra at factory OAL. Does realy well in my rifles. Larry in western Ky.

Happen to know your velocity?

Also could someone give me a measurement of the 39 gr BK from tip to base please?

Hope you're as lucky as I, with my Savage Bull, It shoots anything I poke in it.. And well. The last batch ot 39's I did were 27.5gr Varget, 2.35" Trying to remember, thinking it was .030" off lands. Poppin pdogs 200-350yd like a kid poppin bubble wrap.. Don't have a fps.. 8)

I measured about 12 of them. They were from .723 to .737 . I load 25.6 grains of 2015 with a br4 primer. They shoot just under 1/2 inch in my xr100. I load mine to 2.250. Touching the lands they measure 2.420, but theres not a whole lot left in the case. All the 204's i've shot seem to like the jump. I have not chronographed the load, but I can say they work very well on prarie dogs. Hope this helps.

Thanks for doing that. I know so far with my gun the bigger jump it has I increase velocity a lot. Also the seating depth doesn't seem to affect my groups. Now that may change with a larger bullet that I can get closer to the lands but if I remember right I had about .150 to go to get to them. As for mag length I have tons of room so I don't have to worry about that.
