Thanks very helpful.

The data is from their 5th edition manual. So not so new as the 6th edition is out.


I stand corrected.......after looking closer at the print it is the 6th edition.

 

[Fuj]

For what I want to see, I just get 404 errors.....

How do I know what edition is on their APP load data? Any one know if that would be the same as the online data and not the latest printed information?

Answered my own question, Welcome to Sierra Bullets 6th edition manual of rifle and handgun Reloading data! From the App

 

[65swede]

The headings on the PDFs should reference the edition

Sixth Edition on .243 win

A lot of the sixth edition are weaker loads.

Where is IMR 4064 for the 243, 80 to 85 grain bullets??? Use to be their accuracy load!

Sierra data sucks unless you use Sierra bullets. They have no data for anything else.
I was looking for 9mm data with lead bullets. There's nothing in their manual.
I called them to ask. They said they don't give data for bullets they don't make.

Why would a bullet company provide data for a competitors bullets?

What edition has the good stuff?

The Fifth edition had some hotter loads, but it has been discussed here that different test barrels were used in that one compared to the sixth edition too.

Look at page 377 of the new online version. 240 Wby. 100 grain. The powder chart shows loads maxing at 3100 fps. Accuracy and hunting loads at the bottom show both at 3400 fps and using about 3 - 5 grains more powder. WTF? More like my kinda loads. Not the same as my paper sixth edition loads for 100 grain, page 376.

Too bad it doesn't have load data for their newest bullets for .308, like the 169 and 177 SMK's.

Sierra updates lead data much less than they did 30 years ago

I am a Sierra bullet guy. But their loading manual, a joke. Too many lawyers. Oh, thats pretty much whats wrong with society today. Too many lawyers infiltrating every aspect of life. Totally non productive worthless eaters.

If your rifle has a 1:12 twist and you must shoot 55gr and lighter to get any accuracy, this data is not any help~!

These data references are getting so conservative you cannot equal MV's printed on factory ammo.

Have it bookmarked.
Sadly they do not provide data for the ARC. It's now been around long enough.
