So I have some reloading questions.....
I recently took up reloading, and I am having good success with it, and really enjoying it. My real question is about the best ways to go about getting it dialed in and eliminating all the wasted time and money with trying every bullet and powder out there. I know its not like that, but I just need some advice on where to go now, because I haven't had as much success loading the right recipe for the 65 as I have with other calibers.
Rifle Specs:
LOKI Upper
18'' AR Stoner 1:8 twist
Free Float Rail
Current Load:
Straight from AA Website
-130 gr Berger hunting VLD
-29.0 gr Hodgdon BL(C)-2
Im getting around 1.5" MOA currently, and know the rifle is capable of much more.
Main goal for this upper is LR Steel shooting and also a hunting rig. I have many other hunting rifles but have really fell in love with the AR platform and its capabilities. So I want to develop a load (and only 1 load) for range use and hunting. Why I chose the VLD thinking it kinda fills both roles.
Note- have not harvested any large game, only predators so i dont have any experience with the VLD's on Whitetails.
I shoot Accubonds during the fall, through hunting rifles. And i know they offer accubonds in 6.5 just havent tried them.....
So give me some advice on a great bullet that fills both the target/hunting role, and please dont send me data on SMK's......
Thanks
