Hunting load info-6.5X47L

[butchlambert]

I have found a few loads for BR type bullets, but none for hunting. I will be using Barnes 130GRN. TSX bullets. It will be shot in a Mod 7 Rem. with an 8 twist 22" Shilen barrel. I think that I want to use RL15. Any actual experience will be appreciated.

130gn berger on thin skin game works well. 2 whitetails last winter.

I have shot some .400 groups at 100 yards with my 6.5X47 Ruger M2 with a Shilen 1-9 twist using Nosler 130 Accubond bullets with 37.5g R15.
Best group was with 37.5g N540 and the Nosler Accubonds.

Thanks Butch

Butch let us all know what you find out I'm staring an a Borden Alpine that I intend to take to MS this winter for whitetail. It's my intention to use the Accubonds or BT's

Got an email from the stock painter. Said he dropped the stock and chipped it. Should be here by the middle of next week I hope. It may be the week after as I will be hosting the Shilen Swap Meet Sat. the 18th. I will take the Ohler 35.
