If you dont have access to sierras manuel you can find pdfs of them online by caliber. I would shoot a few factory rounds over the chrony then pick a low starting point out of the data and work my up to desired velocity. If you dont have a chrony you will need to compair drops out at say 500yds to match velocity out of your barrel.

Factory loads use blended powders that hanfloaders do not have access to. The only way to replicate the load is to get the Sierra manual, pick a powder or two and work up a load with that bullet.

Thumbs up

Sure my partner use those 190 bthp sierra in his remington 700 bdl. Shoot great and flat. He droped a moose at 295 yards 1 shot.

This is what i use in his gun :
190 bthp sierra COAL : 3350 Primer : CCI 250 mag Powder : Alliant RL 22, 71.5


this is the Sierra Data :

Accuracy Load : (RL 22 - 70.4 ) RL22: Min 65.8 Max: 72.7


Let me know if you need data for a specific powder. Sierra list : AA4350, imr4350, RL19, imr4831,AA3100,H4831sc,Magpro,VihtN165,RL22,imr782 8,H1000,Magnum
