Loading for 25-06

[ghughes]

Hi all,

I'm starting back to reloading for accuracy in my BBR 25-06 after a 10 yr hiatus.
When I left off I was at 0.4-0.5", 5 shot, 100 yds with 87 gr bullets (speer mostly).
I tried several heavier bullets with little success. I would like to find a load for both 100 gr and 117/120 gr bullets.

Any bullet powder combo advice would be great. Any bullet weight, 75-120 or if there are some custom heavier bullets that work. My powder choices may be obselete so any good loads are welcome.

Thanks, ghughes

Grouseman posted a pic of my handload results a while back, target & load data. The three shot group shot at 185 yds was under 1/2". If you're interested, send me your e-mail address and I'll send you a scanned copy.
