Does anyone have load data for a 320 Woodleigh bullet in the 9.3x62?
Comments
You could start with 50 gr. of:
RE-15
VV N150
Varget
Ramshot hunter
or 48 gr. of:
Any flavor 4895
VV N140
Tac
These are safe start loads to work up from. I hate to say you need to work up from not so much from the cost perspective as availability. For me it would be both. Do you have a powder that you intend on using? I know I tried some AA4350 with 286 bullets and they were a little too slow. You may be able to use it with the 320's.
I have never loaded the 320 gr. bullets. Those are interpolations of what I know to be safe for 285/286's. Remember though that Woodleigh bullets have different loads for solids/FMJ's and soft nose. Reduce by a grain for the solid/fmj when getting near max.
Edit:
I went back and looked at a 9.3x62 post I saw before and realized that VV gives the exact load for your 320 Woodleigh.

Try that.
Also in looking back I think H4350 would be optimum for that weight bullet. As would any flavor of 4350 if you are going to shoot it in a hot temperature zone somewhere in the world. Start with 54 gr. and work up.
