Hi experts-
I'm going to work up my first load for my first LR rifle, a new Remington 700 SPS Varmint 26" barrel. I've got 155 Lapua Scenars, Wolf LR primers, new Winchester brass and R15. I plan on using the ladder method and need to know the starting and max load but cannot find the load data for this combination anywhere.
Also, for this rifle, what COAL should I start with? My Lee manual shows an impossibly short maximum. I was thinking about putting a bullet a case and cambering it and see where it goes and maybe back off .015 - .030 as outlined in my book. Good/bad idea?
Thanks!!
