Default 20 Dasher with 55gn bergers

Guys I have 50 cases fireformed and should do the remaining 50 this weekend.

I have 1000 55gn Bergers and they are what the rifle was built to launch.

So far the search function has come up with 33.5gns rl 15 as a max.

I also have Varget and H4895.

Does anyone have any load data they can share.

Planning to use CCIBr 4 primers. Rifle is a BAT SV with a 9 twist lilja finished at 28 inches

Thanks in advance

That seems a pretty hot load I'm using 31.3 of RL15 in a 20 Nitro that is an acklyed shouldered version and I'm getting 3750fps

No pressure signs but it shot so well there I stopped seems it's a good node at that FPS

I don't actually know.

Is the best way to find out to fill them to the brim with water and subtract the weight of an empty from a full case?

Yes, with a fired case. Make sure there is no air bubbles so do it a few times.

If you give me this I can help you with max velocities / pressures.

Default Do you have powders..

Similar to N-550 or N-560 down under,that load of Rel-15 seems like a 6Dasher load that's getting warm.

I know it seems rude to ask for help and then ignore the offer you are given
, but I am the sort of klutz who will pour water all over his chargemaster.

anything other than ADI powders is near impossible. Reloader powders only seem to be delivered once a year so you have to search around. I have never tried re 15 but the shop I found had 1 tub only. Then I found 7 at another shop so bought four more just in case it works. I can always sell the unopened tubs if one of the ADI powders works .

Hope to fire some test loads at the weekend
