load for 8x57 using swede components

[desporterizer]

I ordered a couple thousand rounds of the 8x63 swede & am looking for some loads in 8x57 using the swede components. Any body got a good one for a k98? Thanks much.

8mm Mauser (23” barrel) – 180gr Nosler – 50.0gr – 2610 fps

If you use the pulled 218's, reduce to 46.0 grs and you will get about 2400 fps.

Burn rate of the pulled Swede powder is very close to IMR 4064
