256 Win Mag and Reloader 7

Post by 3leggedturtle »

Any one use this powder in 256? My only load so far is 20.5grs of H335. H4227 is sposed to be the best for it. Have not been able to find any in 2 years of looking. The H335 behind a 86gr Rem FP averages 2325fps Read that REL7 should be even better but have found any referenc in any of the powdr manufacurers websites.. Also using cutdown 223 bras and necked up and trimmed 221FB works great, thanks for the tips. Oddly enough have found REL7 loads for 25/20, just not in 256!!
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres

250 Savage... its what the 223 wishes it could be...!
