That's good info. I have sheepishly loaded with 24-26.5 grs 2206H in .5 increments for my Savage 24V o/u. I figure it will get close to 1950 with 26.5. I'll see on Sunday if I can settle with a group around there or need to get to 28-29 grs.
I might plump for group buy multi cavity if can get this in tune for wallabies out to 150. I will be PP for my 6.5 x 57R combo when I get a bit more time!

Well then I'd settle for the most accurate load going.
Tragedy might be a few inches more here or there.
I made a hollow point 165 grn with a big hole in the nose section. talk about blow up coke bottles. A nice vapour mist when hit and the nose section blows up into bits inside the bottle.
Accuacy sucked but the concept works!!!!
A fp 150-175 with @3gns of bulleye 'n dacron tumbled in mule snot has proven to be most accurate for me. @ 1" at 100 yrds.
Sort of like a big 22lr but knocks things over without a quiver out as far as your can hit them in the nogg'n.Doesn't scare things away for the next 5 miles either !!!!!!!!!
shoot 'em as cast or sized 1-2 thou over bore or to fit the throat.
I use a h&R with an old barrel on it.

I posted some pics of Erik Ohlen HP on Molds/maintainance forum "big 22lr" is the style. If it hits it's dead. The load above is to complement this one beyond 100 yards. What happens if you don't use Dacron in your 28.5grs 2206H load? JIM

in a 30-30 nothing.
in a 308 you face velocity variations.
if you see vertical stringing, just bump the load another grain it does the same thing as the Dacron.
the one thing Dacron does for you is evens the load out if you fire up hill or down hill with the slower loads.

I tried it for a wad type effect like cream of wheat etc....one day and changed another thing or two as well and it just worked for me.
Not being superstious ...but I'll change nothing till things go tits up before I change anything for a while.
