I finally got one and have used only H4895 in it so far. Very accurate. How about some of your powder selections and why. Ladobe?
I also have a 6mmJDJ#2 using H4895. Any other powder selections for that one? Same as the 257? I have JD's data sheets, just wondering what your experiences are.

I'm also a brand new 257JDJ owner. The barrel I got came with the loads the previous owner had set up and he recommended W748 with a range of loads that will give MOA with a 100 grain Nosler BT bullet. He also had an AA2520 load that was shooting very well for him with a Hornady 100 grn bullet. I have some H322 sitting around that I want to play with as well, but I haven't yet. Maybe on some of the lighter varmint bullets. I'll let you know what I come up with if I ever try it out.

I would apprecitate a copy as well for my 257 JDJ.
Thanks, Richard

Have any of you guys come up with a decent varmint load yet? I would like to hear what you've come up with if you have.
