A friend just picked up an older very nice 8x68S CZ with some components and is looking for loading data. Any help would be greaappreciated.
Thanks. That's quite the club you're shooting. What are we looking at? A real beauty.I used my Steyr SM12 8x68s for the first time last month on croc in Africa. Here is the load that produces 1/2MOA at 100 yards out of my 8x68s:
Projectile: Northfork 180gr SS
Powder: 72.0gr IMR4350
COAL: 3.590"
Primer: Fed215
Brass: Norma
Avg Vel: 3053fps
Hornady also has some loads from its 9th Edition manual...see below:View attachment 614781View attachment 614782View attachment 614783View attachment 614784
I recommend Bob at ravenrockprecision.com for Norma 8x68 brass. Bob is a great guy and a supporter of AH. I have bought all of my 8x68 brass from him. I just checked and it looks to be in stock now.Tagging this thread for future reference, I keep buying brass when I find it.
