Guys what is the conventional wisdom on powder choices for SPs? Say vs a standard rifle in the same cambering does cutting down the barrel necessitate going to a faster burning powder to create efficiency or maintain as high a velocity as possible?
i am about to start load development on 2 SPs
First 6.5 WSM (leopard) and second a 260 rem. both will be using either the 130 or 140 Berger or the 140 amax. in my rifles chambered for the WSM using the same bullets i am using H-1000 and in the 260 am using H-4350. would these still be good choices for an sp with a barrel thats 10-12 inches shorter than the rifles.
anyone have any recommended loads for these chamberings in a SP?
thanks in advance,
Don
