Post by Steve 2141 »

Hi all

I’m looking for some starting loads for a 6x47 Lapua, 8” twist 105 pills, ADI and Alliant powders

Cheers

Something around 38gns of 2209 with the bullets jammed .015" will be a safe start. I would say you will end up somewhere around 39+gns if you barrel is not too tight. If you have access to a cronograph, load it up to around 3080 fps which is where most people seem to run the 6x47s.
