Bushchook105 A Max in .243AI / 6mm
Anyone found a really accurate load for the 105 gn A Max in a .243 Ackley or 6mm Rem. that they would like to share ?
Tried H4350 / AR2209 today but ran into pressure signs at 3020 FPS without good accuracy (vertical stringing) .
Would like 3000 FPS plus .Have access to Hodgdon Extreme (A.D.I.) powders , Winchester WXR / Re 22 .Others hard to come by in Oz .

308SakoBush... I shoot a 1 in 8 twist Hart 6 Rem and the 105's with an overbook load of IMR 4831 or R22 shoot exta ordinarily good. High speed's 3100 + and low SD's. Barrel length is 28" however.

i shoot a 1/10 twist 24" barrel. it likes 47,4 grains of imr-4831. over 3000fps in my rifle. according to data i received from another source you can start at 45grs and work your way up to 48grs.
please note in my signature about handloads.
