martin_b Posted March 8, 2023 Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 Hi all, Currently Im shooting 6.5CM with 42g RS62 with 140g Nosler RDF in Peterson brass. Ive Shot this out to 1200m with good results and according to Sterlok Ive got a bullet speed of 2650f/s. Now I want to keep my dwindling stock of RS62 for the long range stuff and make up a "plinking" round for the sub 900y stuff. I've got a couple of KG of N160 i use with my K31 so i'd like to use this, I also have quickload, but my reloading PC is screwed, ( Im a MAC man) so Id be grateful if some one could do me a massive favour and let me know what weight of N160 is suggested to match Rs62, ( I'll obviously start low and work up it) cheers Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
