6.5-47 with 107 match king

[bulldog284]

Hello

A friend of mine gave me some 107 sierra match kings to try was thinking might make a good woodchuck round. I my question is what powder should I use I have n140 n150 varget h4350 8208 and a few others.
The rifle is a stiller action 1-8.5 twist krieger 26 inch.

Any reloading info or advice would be appreciated

Thank you Darin

Darin, my 22" 1:8T likes IMR 4064 with the 107's, with a full load it showed no signs of pressure, in fact they shoot better then the 120-130gr bullets out to 300 yards in my gun.

Bulldog284, I started at 35.5gr and went up to 39.0gr with bullets seated to a 0.020" jump. Be safe, please work up to max...

Mr. Big, what load are you using?

[Eric Leonard]

these loads I just came up with on my own with no book data,,so use at your own risk,,

Mr. Big, that's some great shooting, was this a max load? I don't have any 100gr bullets but I do have Sierra and Berger 95's. I will reduce by 10% and start there. Thanks
