I'd shoot some factory ammo, decide what weight pill you want to send down range, then start some load work ups really freaking low with the mystery pull down powder.
I did the same with Wolf ammo, reusing everything but the undersized wolf bullet. I was surprised to get the results that I did. Fair velocity, spooky good group given the steel case and inconstant neck tension.
So, I guess that's part of what I'm asking. If I can get .5 moa accuracy without much effort then that's probably good enough. But if I can get .25 moa by neck sizing and working with the neck tension, anealing cases and so on then I probably will.
My 260 is $.64 per round before brass. If I can buy .3 Ammo off the shelf for $1 and just shoot... that's gonna be hard to pass up!
Although if I start shooting a couple K a year in round count like the others, I'll have to step up the reloading game.
I will enjoy that first 500 rounds though!
Any other Ammo to look at? Or just grab that Black and don't look back?
I'm OCD to the max on my lapua brass for the REM. keep it sorted by firings, anealings, and never a different head stamp.
But with a gas gun, I shouldn't need to worry that much right? Especially at mid range distances...
