Can someone give some good starting loads for the 600 OK. Ed Plummer has promised me that my rifle will be ready soon. want to have some ammo on hand when it does.

Erik, Click on the third from the left button on your tool bar "Find" and look for past discussions on the 600 OK. Most of them will be on load comparisons. Rob and Fritz are among the most knowledgeable on the subject.

Try 7828 for a starter at 150 grains and work up from there. Make sure you use a Chrony to monitor your load development and velocity.

I'd start with 163 grs of IMR 7828 . Use a 15 inch drop tube to add the powder. fed 215 primer and 900 gr woodleigh sp. You should see from 1950-2050fps depending on your barrel length. you'll be surprised at how easy it is to shoot. When you get a chance shoot a gallon water jug to get some idea of what this thing can do.-Rob

Thanks.

166.5grs of H4350 gave me a three round average of 2262fps.

160grs of H4350 is a nice shootable load as is Rob's 160 to 163grs of IMR 7828. The H4350 will get you more velocity.

Edit to add:
Forgot to mention that I have a 23" barrel on my OverKill.
