Re: Reloader Swiss 40
Do they have the full range in and do you know what they are charging per Kilo?
Re: Reloader Swiss 40
Not sure but mike is extremely helpful and I think it was 57.50 or 58.00 a kilo, give him a call he can probably get it if he doesn't stock it

Re: Reloader Swiss 40
I have no data for ADI bullets so went for PPV instead:
Cartridge : .223 Rem. (SAAMI)
Bullet : .224, 62, PrviPartizan FMJ BT B-419
Useable Case Capaci: 25.850 grain H2O = 1.678 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 2.270 inch = 57.66 mm
Barrel Length : 16.8 inch = 425.5 mm
Powder : RS 40
Predicted data by increasing and decreasing the given charge,
incremented in steps of 0.893% of nominal charge.
CAUTION: Figures exceed maximum and minimum recommended loads !

Re: Reloader Swiss 40
Not yet as I am undecided on what to go for, certainly the .308 choices are a bit slower than I would have liked and I am currently developing a Tr140 load for my 6,5x47 however I will give them a try at some point.
