hey guys,i put together a Thompson pro hunter with a custom barrel 26" long in 6.5-284 norma, 1 in 8 twist it has the trigger work done and it breaks like glass at 2.5 pounds 0 creep.I will be using it for moose and deer. I have been reloading for over 30 years and have taken a lot of game,mostly with single shot rifles.I have taken moose out to 427 yards and deer just over 300,so I do know a little bit about hunting and shooting.
MY question is this,when I check all my reloading manuals,total of 10.theres not a lot of info.So here goes,i have been on the net for over a week and most of the target shooters or long range hunters are using loads way over anything that are in my books.
Anyone have any good loads that they have tried out and worked for hunting.
I have h4831 sc,re 22,re 19,win 760.h 1000,imr 4064.retumbo
I only use fed 210 match or 215 match,primers.
have 120gr. barnes ttsx,nosler 130 accubonds,129 sst,142 smk,for target.my dies are Redding fl length sizer and seater and also have a Forester benchrest seater.
So if any sugestions please let them fly.
ALL LOADS ARE ALWAYS WORKED UP TO MAX OR LESS as per each rifle.
Thanks guys.oh ya lapua brass being used.
