The specs of each is written in upper left corner of each target. The top picture is factory load. Basically for each bullet i went slightly up from starting charge and slightly below.

Ok so here's my first go with reloads. I know you guys are probably going to say this takes time and money but out of the 4 different handloads I'd like to drop 2. The factory ones I'm already planning on dropping but included here for the heck of it. This round was all 3031 powder. I also have CFE2...

Good info. So I don't have to worry about barrel heat changing shot as long as I take a couple minute break between? It's only going to be around 50 degree high Sunday so it should cool barrel quicker.

Free recoil sounds interesting. Will look into.

If you go to the Hornady data site, it shows a start load of around 25 grn.s with the 40 gr bullet and 4046. they only show 4166 used with the 32 grain bullet and not the 40, but you could use that load for the 40, if you wanted too try it. start with the start load and work up slow. CFE 223 will b...

Also, for the 39 gr Speer TNT HP, can I use any load data for the 39 gr SBK or is that a no-no? Pretty much a no-no, but some do it nonetheless. The loads in the manuals are specific to each bullet for a reason. Bearing length, overall length both make a difference, among other factors. The loads a...

Thanks. Any opinions on how long to rest between shots when trying for supreme accuracy to choose my preferred load? My barrel is a bit heavier than normal but it's not a bull barrel. I would like to shoot 16 this weekend and was thinking 2 minutes between each.

New to the forum. Thanks for having me. I bought a Savage 25 Varminter-T last month and looking to get into reloading for groundhogs. About 12 years ago I purchased a H&R Handi-Rifle in .243 and could never get the thing to group less than a couple inches at 100 yards and would wing one off ever...

Both of these questions come from the fact that I've never attempted to be extremely accurate at long ranges with a rifle before. With this .204, I would like to become accurate up to 500 yards. I've never shot those distances before but would like to work up to it. Most of my experiences with rifle...

Hello all. New to the forum. Thanks for having me. I recently purchased a Savage 25 Varminter-T in .204. Note: I am NOT an experienced reloader but have done it a few times in the past using friends equipment. I bought all the reloading supplies except powder. I figured my friends would have differe...
