Blackhawk
Just picked one like new minus the box, but topped with a Burris 4.5 to 14X AO scope, for $900.00. An OK price? The 6.5X284 Winchester I think puts me in to triple digits for reloading, but I know pretty much zero about the cartridge.
I presume cases and dies for the Winchester and Norma, Norma Match are the same? The Ruger has a 1 in 8" rate of twist, will this take bullets up to 140 grains? 4831SC looks like a good powder, although I'm not finding a whole lot of reload data. The Hodgden on line site doesn't show anything, nor does the Reloader magazine on line database.
I have some Winchester 284 cases, leftovers from a Winchester 88 that I have lots of ammo already loaded for. Simple to neck down and use in the No1 I assume.
