I would be obliged if someone can supply contact information for Fred. I am shooting one of his creations and I have a few questions concerning this .085 short 6Br brass.

Fred passed away several years ago
I shot one of the .100 short 6BR for some time

Fred only LOOKS like he passed away.

The ex-piper gave you good advice on loading that tall dog, short dog, hot dog, or whatever variant you have. Use PPC data as a starting point. After all, that is what those BR Dogs were designed for - to duplicate the PPC. Maybe even measure the H2O capacity and compare it with a PPC. But I'll bet if you simply fill the case to the base of the bullet with something like V V 133 you won't go wrong.

MY APOLOGIES
I just spent two hours trying to find the post on BR Central where I got my knuckles raped for asking for contact information for Fred Hasecuster,sp) As i recall it was J D and he suggested the thread be deleted.
Again, my apologies
Life is short

Thank you for the advice. I do very much look forward to speaking with Fred. My experience lies with Sako brass out of 6 PPC varmit rifles where we just nudge the scale over 27 grains of H322. These short BR cases are running loads in the range of 29 plus
