I'm going to try the Reloader 17 in 6x47 Lapua. Would like some loads please. Thanks in advance

I use 39.4g under a 105JLK .004 off , Fed 205m . A warm load but well within limit in my rifle , head expansion less than .0005. Hornady 105 A-Max shoot a bit bigger but still very accurate . Impressive velocity of 3200fps out of my 28inch tube , groups at two inches at 600 yards .

I liked it in 6XC behind a Berger 105VLD but in all truth N540 and 8208XBr produced lower SD's & better accuracy. Let us know your sense of it in 6x47 after a few rounds please.

rel 17 43.3 gr under a fowler 80 gr flatbase bullet at 3500+fps. jumping about .025 thous. 12 twist kreiger. devastating on ghogs.

Powder went up in price again . I went to buy some N-550 , it's up to $38 a pound ! Love the N-540 and N- 550 powders , but agggh , the price . I think it's a conspiracy !

mine likes 37.5 r-17 wolf primer 107 sierra 2950 fps . very picky on seating depth. can stand to go hotter but groups open.will shoot better than the driver.
