7X64 CZ550 24" Barrel. Extremely accurate load.

Bullet Powder Prim Charge case OAL VEL

2013 Load work uo for CZ550

160gr Speer SP
53 grains Reloader 17
Average Velocity: 2826 (ft/sec)
CCI250 Primer
OAL 3.36
RP 7x64 Brass
Accuracy: .53" avg (100 yards)

For reference - I have an slightly older CZ (mine is the model that preceeded the 550 but is updated from the 602) in 7x64, and I'm using 53.8 gns of AR2209 (H4350) behind the Speer 160 for 2815 average velocity. I don't make any special accuracy claims for this load, but it shoots well enough to take animals to at least 300 metres

I just checked the zero of my 7x64 after two very tough trips in difficult country (several new garks on it, more on me !!), zero was still perfect thanks to Mr Kahles and both 3 shot groups were 19 mm (3/4") at 100 metres (109 yards). Pleasing.

Very nice

Have any of you loaded the 140gn Barnes T.Shok ?

Thanks in advance.
