Since I can't get onto Hodgdon data site right now,whats your favorite 243 load? I have 100 primed cases ready to go!
I have the following powder-- WW760,IMR 4350,IMR4064.H4831sc,H4350,H380,H450,Varget
I have the following 243 bullets, 75gr, 87gr,100gr.
The guns are Rem, model 7 and a Ruger compact 16" barrel.
Thanks for any info!
 
87g V-max
36.5g of Varget

100g Partition
42.5g IMR 4350
CCI BR2

the varget load is .5moa out to 400yds
the IMR 4350 is around 1" at 200yds

You have to work up the load for your rifle. What shoots well out of mine won't necessarily shoot well out of yours. You will have to work up a load for each of your rifles as well. You might get lucky and fine a load they both like, but it's not likely. They have different rifling twists.
However, mine likes IMR4350 with either 90 or 105 grain bullets.
 
95gr SST
Winchester Brass and Primer
42 grains of H414
I seat them to the little textured ring on the bullet. Shoots sub-moa in any 243 ive ever used them in. Savage, Remington and Winchester.
 
IMR4350 in the 243 Winchester cartridge is never a mistake......Bullet weights from 85 to 100 grains do very well with this long time favourite powder in the 243......
