Load Data Help for 6.5x47, 130 Hybrids and Varget

[minnesotamulisha]

So I am going to begin reloading for the 6.5x47. I currently have Varget, 130 Grain Berger Hybrids, and CCI 450 primers.

I have a 22" barrel and would like to know where to start. Does anyone have any information on this combination that they would like to share?

Thanks

Adam

I'll be starting at 35gr and working up. 37gr with 130VLDs slightly in had a slight bit of pressure once fouled. Clean it was a hot load, but I am working with a large AI firing pin. I think the 130 Hybrids should work well round 37gr with about .0020" to .0030" jump.

I am working with a 28" r5.

Thanks FatBoy. I also am using a non bushed action. Is this going to have an effect on the load? I would think it may cause primer catering at lower pressures, is this correct?

minnesotamulisha,
If you have our Berger reloading manual. You can use the same load data as the 130 VLD. If you dont and need help. Please contact us at techsupport@bergerbullets.com
