Looking for loads for this bullet in a bolt action rifle.

Go on Hodgdons reloading site. Lots to view

Thanks although I would like to see some data from Barnes or someone that has loaded these bullets.

I've loaded them with h4198 and cfe blk to almost max listed with no pressure signs.
Someone else's loads are meaningless in your rifle anyway.
Pick a charge a few grains under max and work up like normal.
Cheers

I understand about the rifle thing just looking for a starting point

Probably start with book data.

Barnes data can be a little spicy.

I've used Barnes data and before Hodgdon published theirs I went...significantly...over their max with CFE BLK lol. Oops. But no pressure signs.

Bullet shot well and its accounted for one whitetail. Spine shot so other than that cant tell you much

My SKS liked that projectile much better than Gold Dots. Shot gold dots like ass

Quickloads has data. What powder were you thinking of using ?.

I load these with H4198 near Barnes’ max. Accurate with good velocity.
