I have just stared working up .25-06 loads using 100gr Sierra SPBT. I have tried one load with 52gr IMR4350 (53.5 is max). It was as fast as it should be, but not as accurate as I would like. Anyone have any favorite loads they would like to share? I have on hand IMR4350, IMR7828, IMR4895, & H1000. Also, I would like some information regarding switching to magnum primers in this caliber. How much should I reduce the standard primer load? Anyone use magnum primers in the .25-06 with success?

Thanks,
FIRE!
