Matt234 Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Hi I have a sako that's rebarrel in 17 fireball load development from my experience which is limited the barrel length makes a big difference so what works in a 20" barrel maybe way to hot in a 24" so start with the minimum load and you will have to have a chronograph to hand I'm away for the next few weeks but if you like I could let you know my load development data.

Akeld Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 My friend uses 25gr Vmax over 18gr RS40, its a truck gun so has quite a short barrel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuck Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 18.4 of H322 in mine, it's safe in my Tikka 595 rebarrel, and some of the brass has probably been loaded a dozen times. That's in a 22" bbl, might pay to start 10% lower and in may limited experience of the.17 Fireball go up in 0.1 increments as it really can hide pressure very well..
