Hello all,

I'm wondering if Berger lists a load for N133 and the 64gr BR COLUMN flat base bullet in the "6mm PPC USA" section.

Don't have a Berger book, or know anyone else who does.

Thanks
 
I don’t have a Berger book either, but searched all my books and couldn’t find squat to answer your question precisely.
I did take an interest in helping you, so I started searching online.

I’m sure you’ve probably already searched, etc,
But here’s what I could find.
Hope it helps!

This might get you close enough to start.

So GRT doesn't have the 64gr. It has the 62gr and a 65gr. I ran both just to get an idea. Not sure it helps but its what I had available to me. If you wanted to provide the data requested in the last photo I could input the projectile.

Hey, a few more data points I pulled from my Berger manual (1st edition). I don't have any data listed for the 64 BR Column but I have some info on the 60 and 65gr projectiles

60gr FB Varmint: With N133, the powder charge ranges from 26.0gr to 28.9gr. They achieved a velocity range of 3042fps @ 26gr to 3356fps @ 28.9gr out of a 24" barrel with a 2.193" COAL.

For the 65gr they list the same data for the 65gr FB target as well as the BT target. With N133 the charge ranges from 24.5gr to 27.2gr, getting velocities ranging from 2978-3297fps out of a 24" pipe, with the COAL again at 2.193".

I'm guessing the 65 gr load data would proabably be a better starting point of the 2 that I listed listed.

Best of luck, and reload safely!
