.25-06 reloading

trsddy · 04-15-2002, 06:35 PM

I recently bought a H&R 25-06 single shot. I plan to use this gun on coyotes and antelope. I am new to reloading and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on powder/bullet combinations. I was planning to use 90gr for the 'yotes and the 117gr for the antelope. Any help would be appreciated.

I reload my Remington 700 in 25-06 all the time. I have found my best load, as far as accuracy, is with IMR 4831 and Sierra 100 Gr Soft Point Boat tails (SPBT). I use CCI 200 primers.
I also only resize the neck after the round has been fired in my rifle, and trim each case every time for consistency. ALl of my reloading stuff is RCBS. Good Luck and follow the loading manuals for powder measurements. I find that my rifle is most accurate at 97-97% max. powder charge.
