Guess I will start with another question.
I have gone to CopperCreeks website and looked at their Load Packs. If I take these 50 90gr CX bullets that I have and do a basic load pack, 5 each at different powder loads with everything else the same ,buy a chronograph and document speed and size of group and save each group of brass for signs of pressure. Will I be able to come up with a basic load for my rifle.
I know it would not be anywhere close to what you guys do but for my hunting , once a load is gotten to you have to recheck it as you buy more bullets, powder and the rest or can I make up a bunch pack them away and be good to go ?
And that brings another question . What does over pressure look like ? I have read about it but will it be obvious to a beginner like me ?
I had planned to just follow the Hornady app load for the 90CX with LEVERevolution but I think once I get the barrel back , have the gun ready and all the material needed I will post and maybe you guys can offer advice .
so set in stone will be the rifle
CZ527 with 24" barrel with 1-7.5 twist
90gr CZ
Once fired Hornady brass from factory loads
LEVERevolution powder
Hornady's site says Federal 205 Primer but I an open to what you guys use
and
Hornady has loads starting at 28.4grs going up to 32.3grs for LEVERevolution in 7 steps. I want to load 5 rounds per step so that opens up several more steps that can be tried
Can that be done or should I space it out and load starting some where in the middle and just a few steps at a time.
Oh well I have lots of time the barreled action won't be back until maybe Nov.
Plenty of time for me to ask more questions
