Hello guys, a friend ask me for reloading data for her new 6x62 Freres rifle, but I could not finf any loads...
Can someone give me some infos???
Thanks
Faina

After doing a little homework : useing a 100gr. bullet, 47 gr. of H4831 should be a good starting load. She may want to start a tad lower and work up and past the 47 gr.
Are you able to get H4831 in Italy? roger

Faina, welcome back! If you tell me which bullets and powders you have, I can give you a useful guess with Quickload.

Hello Faina
There is a lot of reloading sources: RWS, Deva, Vihtavuori, but not the current ones, maybe the 2003-2004 editions.
I have developed at least two reloads for my Blaser R93, here is what a use:
1.- Horneber brass 2.419, COAL 3.078, Barnes TSX 85 grs., 55.5 grs of Rl 22, CCI BR primer, average vel: 3,400 fps average. Very accurate in my rifle.
2.- Horneber brass 2.419, COAL 3.105, Sierra Hunter 100 grs. BT, 54 grs. Rl 22, CCI BR primer, av. vel: 3230 fps. Very accurate

I understand that in Italy you can obtain components in Jawag (www.jawag.it/page_1.html)
If you have any questions regarding RWS or Deva Ladungen, just send me a PM.

Hello Wildboar, yes, I'm back after long time!!!
I'm not shoure wich bullet my friend want to use, but I think 95-100g will be a good choise for italian game like Chamois.
Hodgon's 4831 is even a good choise for hi-power calibers... We can find this also here in Italy.
Thank you for your help!!!

These data are for the H4831:

Nosler Part. 95 gr, cartr. lenght 82 mm: min. 50.5 gr./max 54 gr.

Hornady Interbond 85 gr.- Cartr. lenght 79 mm: min. 51 gr/max 54.5 gr

Hornady SST 95 gr. cartr. lenght 82: min 50 gr./max 53.5 gr.

Hornady SP 100 gr. cartr. lenght 82: min 50 gr./max 53 g.

For a 60 cm. barrel, V/0 should range between 910 and 970 m/s (for max. suggested loads). Of course the above data are a guess. Let me know if you need something else.
