I'm sure that there is some info here somewhere, but I need some help. I'm looking for some load data for 100 grain bullets and N560 powder. I'm using fire formed fereral brass and 210M primers. I shot a load this morning of 49 grains of Varget. Lets just say it was to hot, way to hot. I'm not against using Varget either as I have plenty. I don't have any 4895 or 4350 which may be a better choice but you all are aware of what it's like to get powder these days.

Re: .257 AI load data
I'm running 48 gns of H4350 in mine with a 24" barrel. Shooting 100gn NBT and getting 3200fps. Only powder that I have tried as the rifle was given to me by my dad and this is what he had used.

Re: .257 AI load data
Thanks for the info. I would love to shoot 110 Accubonds, but I don't have enough magazine room for them, they end up seated to deep. I had GAP build the rifle about a year and a half ago on an L57 Sako. GAP did an amazing job on the rifle, but I have not had any spare time to get the loads worked up. It looks like I'll stick with the 100 gr NBT for now, and go powder shopping. I also pulled a rookie bone head move and didn't order a bushing neck die, when I pulled the bullets they were way tight, which isn't helping my cause either. Cutting corners on the reloading is coming back to haunt me, which I deserve.

Re: .257 AI load data
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but what your saying is I simply change out the bushings in my 243AI neck die and that will work? If so I would have never thought to try that, I'll just need to get some bushings.
