[hemidart]

Anyone shooting 125's I have a sporty PH that loves 150grainers (blue box Federal) but hates 180s of all makes . I have a box of Sierra 125Gr. spitzers and some Varget and some IMR4895 any load data?? C.O.L.
Thanks

303 british, 125 grain Sierra sp IMR4895 powder, Min load.... 40.5 grains for 2370 fps mv, Max load.... 44.5 grains for 2645 fps mv

I got this load from Steve Redgwell's book (recommended buy) it worked best for me at 41.5 grains when used with Hornady 123 grain .310 bullets (designed for 7.62x39). that keeps the Hornady bullet with in it's velocity envelope, works well. The Sierra needs speed if you are going to use it for hunting.
