Need load data for WMR powder

XP100

I got some Winchester WMR powder and don't have a book with data. Any one have an older load data book with info? Thanks

WMR was the first powder I used when loading 243. I have a mid 90's Winchester loading brochure laying around somewhere, I'll see if I can dig it up and post the load data for the calibers you are loading.

We need the bullet weight also.

When asking for load data include caliber and powder type and bullet weight if you want answers [:0]

NO scanner, but have data.

I was hoping someone had a data manual they could scan and e-mail a copy. I shoot from 55 to 105 gr. in the 243 and 6mm. I didn't want a specific load for a specific weight bullet. None of my manuals have any data. Thanks

XP100,

Hornady 7th edition lists WMR for 243 and 6mm only in the 95/100gr and 105gr weights.

243:
95/100gr start @ 40.8grs with max @ 47.9gr.
105gr start @40.9 w/ax @ 47.7gr.

Loads was using Fed 210 primers

6mm:

95/100gr start @ 42.6 w/ max 50.4gr.
105gr start @41.5 w/ max 48.4gr.

Loads were using WLR primers

Winchester 15th edition (1997) list loads for 243 in 80, 100, and 105'grs and in 6mm 80 & 100gr. Using all WW componets this is their load data:

243:

80gr PSP max 47.5grs
100gr PSP max 44.7grs
105gr SP max 43.7grs

6mm Rem:

80gr SP max 48.0grs
100gr SP max 46.1grs

Winchester suggests starting 10% below max and working up on both calibers.

Hope this helps you find a load for your rifles.

Thanks for the info. I also have a .244.

I got a great deal on 3 8lb, kegs of the powder.
