Dissapointed in Hodgdon

[Alan Griffith]

Just picked up the new Hodgdon 2010 Annual Manual. You know, the magazine like annual we can buy at the grocery store. I thought for sure they would have finally entered load data for the 6.5x47 Lapua. Maybe even an article about it. Instead an article about the 6.5 CM where the 6.5x47 Lapua was barely mentioned.

What a shame!

Send them an email and ask for the data.

Sometimes you never know unless you ask. I have asked some ammo makers their loads and sometimes they will give you an acceptable answer. Sometimes they say no deal. But if you never ask, you'll never know.

Good luck. I hope they give you a good answer.

Dang Victor,

You sound like me talking to me kids.

"If you never ask, it's the same as a "no". At lease if you ask, you have a 50/50 chance of getting a "yes"".

Wasn't trying to "talk down". Just stating the obvious.

Not to worry, I didn't take it offensively.

Wonder if my kids do?

Alan- give Walt Berger an email and see if he has any data - you'll wind up using his bullets anyway, you might as well cut to the chase.....
