Accurate 2495 ?

Post by Sagebrush Burns »

Anybody doing any loading with Accurate 2495? Checking here and the Accurate website I haven't been able to find any data. I'm particularly interested in 32 grain loads. Thanks...

I tried some last fall. 29 grains pretty much fills up the case. Velocity with 32 gr Sierra BlitzKings was 4108 average for five shots. grouped just under an inch out of my Ruger 77V/T no pressure signs.. I have other loads that are faster and more accurate, so i did'nt go any further with load development with 2495.

well to start off,i couldnt get to my shooting spot,weve had a little over 4 inches of rain,so i shot by the house with a bench i built which isnt the best! the one i go to is cemented in and very solid. but i think once i get to my spot the groups will shrink because i messed up on a few which screwed up my groups. :mad:
hornady brass,cci 450 primers,xmr2495,sierra 39bk no signs of pressure at all
gun is a ar15 .204,model 1 sales upper 24" ss fluted
26.4 less than 5/8
26.6 had 2 almost same hole,pulled 3rd, 7/8 group
26.8 pulled 1st shot 1" group
27.0 5/8
loaded up 26.6,27.0,27.2 and ill try again ltr :)
