6.5x47 Lapua load with 136 scenar

[Mudpro]

I'm looking for a starting load for my new 6.5x47. I have a 30" barrel and looking to run 136gr scenar with Varget or H4350? Im also wondering if anyone knows what the velocity accuracy node is for the 136's?

Thank
Frank

I do not know specifically for the Lapua 136gr pill, however, for the 139gr and Bergers 140 class bullets, somewhere between 39.5 and 41.0grs of H4350 will give you the accuracy you are looking for. Also, since I have no direct experience with the 136 Scenar, I can not comment on where might be the best starting point for the seating depth.. However, I would start them right at 5K off, if someone does not pipe in about where to seat them..

Thanks ill have to give that a try. Does anyone know how to move this to the right forum I just noticed I posted it in the 6mm forum not the big bore one?

40.5gn of rl-17 is giving me 2950fps with great accuracy but my rifle is better than yours.

Better you say how so? Im limited on how much reloaded 17 i have dont want to find a load and run out its hard to come by up here.

My Bat is better than your Barnard and I have 11lbs of 17.

40.5 of h4350 works well. But is 50fps slower.

Seems like all Bats are good for is galling lugs. Better than a Barnard I think not. Flame suit on. LOL. ;D
