150 grain sierra gameking .280 rem load

[Paul Trout]

Hello, I just picked up a bunch of discounted 7mm, 150 grain sierra gameking bullets I want to load for my 280 Rem. I usually shoot noslers but the accubonds are hard to come by and expensive to practice with. Im wondering if anyone has a good load using these gamekings in a 280. I cant find a lot of data out there and dont want to buy a manual for some discounted bullets.I'm using IMR 4350 and cci #200s.Shooting out of an older model 70. Also, I've heard these bullets perform pretty well both in accuracy and penetration. Anyone have any luck with these? Thanks a lot in advance

I had to click on this thread just for the title , 50 gr Sierra gameking in a .280 . I bet that would be a barrel burner .

don't shoot a 280, but, Sierra does have the bullet in their app.

I can't get the app it was formatted for an older android. Can ya yell me what a starting powder charge is for a 280 using 150 gamekings and imr 4350? I'm guessing around 50-52 grns but want to be as close as possible. Thx
