256 Win Mag heavy bullet loads
« on: October 08, 2006, 10:50:03 PM »
Needing some loads for a 1/10" twist 256 Win Mag. Looking for info on 117grs and/or 120grs loads. Got some good load info for the 75grs and 87grs but need info on the heavy bullets.
Thanks,
Alan

I was not able to get these heavyweights to stabilize. They hit the targets aide ways!! 100 was the heavy weights I got to work, don't remember the load, that barrel is long gone!!

 Not only that they SO protrude in to the case capacity you cant get them going fast enough to make it worth while!!!

 Good luck,
