6BR loads??

Post by **Proclaim** » Sat Apr 20, 2013 9:52 pm

I've been thinking about loading a 'lighter' load for chickens and maybe pigs. Has anybody done this with good success that they're willing to share? It just seems that my preferred load of 28.0 gr. of Varget and Hornady 105 A-Maxes just SLAM those chickens down. I've even had them slam so hard they pop back up. Loading 'light' would also save some on powder.
Thanks for the help!

Since SR4759 has been discontinued does anyone have any load data using Accurate Arms 5744 that you'd be willing to share?

Some good recipes, there.

I was finally able to get some test loads ready and took them to the range to find out how they shoot. I loaded 17 grains of Accurate Arms 5744 under a Sierra 100 grain spire point. The average muzzle velocity out of my XP100 was 1,863 which will give me about 585 foot pounds of energy at 200 meters. The 10 shoot group was just over 1 inch at 100 meters. The recoil was reduced compared to the 'full' loads of Varget that I have been shooting. The real test will come this Sunday at our local silhouette match.
