Reloading for the GA Precision GAP-10

[The Lawn Ranger]

I am currently reloading for GAP's new auto-loader and am wondering what hand loads are working for everyone else? I know from experience that everyone's rifle shoots a little differently and loads should be worked up by the individual, but I am still curious what's working for everyone else. Below are the two loads that seem to be working for me.

155 scenar
46.1 grains of re15
LC LR118 brass
CCI BR2 primers
*I have yet to chrony'd this load

175 SMK
43 grains of re15
win brass
CCI BR2 primers
2580 fps

*rifle is built with 18.5" barrel-set up just like one on website

I do not crimp.

I dont have a specific load worked for it yet, but I have been running my generic 175 smk 2.80 43.0 grains. Getting just under 2600 (21 inch barrel) and it shoots well so far.

Anyone tried 165 AB? I've got a GAP-10 with 22 inch barrel and I bought a whole bunch of different factory to get started. For some reason it loved the 165 AB. I'm looking for some good recipes for deer season.

Are you FL resizing after each time? What case OAL are you trimming to? What's the COAL for those loads?

Thanks!

I am FL sizing and bumping the shoulder back about .003, trim to 2.005 and COAL is 2.800
