Got a pet load or any sort of load data using ADI powders? Preferably for larger game , not varmints .

GreybeardBushmanOnly load I have used-
100 gn Speer AR2209 49 gn
Dynamite on 'roos.
I decided I could fill quotas better with my 22-250 so I haven't used the 25-06 for over 12 months.
Bloody accurate.
Yeh, I've got a Sako 25-06 and GreybeardBushman is dead right Speer 100gn HP flat base are unbelievable on roos,pigs and fallow.2209 is the go or WXR.

muzr257Just tried Nosler 110 grn Accubonds and AR2217 - in my Weatherby Ultra-lite 58.5grn shot under and inch - this was a very quick sight in off the bipod at the beach racing to shoot before it got dark so it will shoot better - i will also be trying ar2213 - will let you know
Us Muzr's have to stick together!!

muzzaThats great thanks guys .
I have masses of load data from another site but it is all American powders , so figured it would be nice to have loads using locally available components.
Blew some goats over last night using Hornady 117 gr factory ammo but at more than $2 a bang it gets pretty expensive...reloading is the way to go...

416SWA friend of mine has a 25-06 on a Ruger No.1 and uses the following loads, I beleive they are on the hot side, so use with caution.
115grn Nosler balistic tip 58grns 2213sc
85grn Nosler balistic tip 58grns 2209 3680fps
yes both loads are 58grns.
