Remington 80grain PSP

[Marshnasty]

Can't seem to find any data online for these, picked them up for around $27 per 100. I am not sure which powder to try, have some W760 and some IMR4831 on hand. Could I use data from Hornady, Barnes, Nosler, Hodgdon for a similar 80 grain projectile?

Use data for a 80gr soft point. Pick your favorite load manual and work up a load

 

[Marshnasty]

Nosler has data for 80 grain ballistic tip spitzer. 42 grain minimum load to a 46 grain maximum load with IMR4831. Is it safe for me to start with the same minimum and work up, taking all precautions and checking for pressure signs, I do not have access to a chronograph.

I would give it a go. Just start at the min and go up from there stop when you hit pressure signs.

What are you shooting a .243 or a 6mm ? That will help...........Harold

The Power Loc Hollow point is devastating on small game.
It use to be Remington's version of a Match bullet.
