[QUOTE="mtp29464, post: 1102387, member: 35204"] Hi Guys, I've been shooting all my life, loading for years, and have recently gotten interested in long range stuff. I have had a 6.5x284 built. It has a 27" varmint contour Bartlein barrel 5R, 8 twist. I've got a box of factory Nosler 120 grain ballistic tips to do the barrel break in, but no other ammo. I have all Nosler brass and 120 and 140 grain ballistic tip bullets to load. The powders I have on hand are: H4831SC H4831 IMR 4895 IMR 4395 IMR 4064 Could y'all suggest some starting loads you have had success with in the past. Please include Bullets, powder, brass, primers, and velocities. I plan on shooting mostly 140 grain bullets because of the rate of twist, but if you have a good load for 120 grain bullets, I'd like to know what they are. Thanks for your help. Remember, you don't save money reloading...You just shoot more. [/QUOTE]
