6 BR with 80gr Dominators and X-terminator powder,...?

[Lefty Trigger]

Sierra's old data has the X-terminator powder as an accuracy load for 80gr bullets. Anybody work with it? I have several pounds on the way to try so looking for ideal starting loads. Have on hand Bart's 80gr Dominators and Dominators HBN coated.

Per Sierra's phone app, 28.8g H335 is the accuracy load listed for the 80gr Blitz SBT bullet, #1515.

Wished we lived closer. I'd definitely let you have a pd. of VV-N135.

DONT OVER LOOK H335 WITH THOSE 80GR PILLS

……and IMR 8208 XBR.

 

[Lefty Trigger]

Tried H335 and not giving the results I'm looking for, did good, not great. Currently have test runs loaded with 8208XBR and X-terminator but got winded out today with gusts near 50mph. Testing will have to wait for better weather now.

SEATING DEPTH IS EVERYTHING WITH H335

SEATING DEPTH IS EVERYTHING WITH H335

I tried all small primers I had on hand and Rem 71/2 gave the best results. Ran a seating depth test and .003 in and .020 off gave really decent results so I went with .020 off as I prefer not to jam if possible. Just couldn't get there.

The really good news is that a member on here just pointed me in the direction of VVn135 in stock and I latched onto an 8 pound jug for next season. I had some seriously great results with n135 and 80gr Bergers then ran out of it with none to be found.

Lefty, just as 133 was made for ppcs, 135 was made for the 6br. Good find, go with it.

With the 80 grn Barts, I use 33.5 grn of Accurate 2495. That is pushing 3500 FPS with great accuracy.

Is that a straight BR ?? I tried 2495 with 80s in a BRA and couldn’t get but maybe 3300 with a caseful.
