Reloading the6.5 X257 Roberts - The Firearms Forum

I have a rifle chambered for this round and I want to begin to reload for it. I have never reloaded, but I have friends that do. What can you tell me about reloading this round and where can I find charts for this round.
Thanks,
Bob

I have the 6.5x.257 Ack. Imp.

My personal data would be slightly strong for the standard 6.5x257. However, the 5th Edition of Hornaday's Handbook or Cartridge Reloading, pg. 235 to 237 has listings for the standard cartridge, in bullet weights from 95 gr. to 160 gr.
