Re: Loads for 180gr RN 312dia for a 303 brit

Hello,

I was wondering if there was some good loads for this 303 bullet

-312 dia
- 180gr
- Soft nose BT, with cannalure.
I haven't purchased the powder yet, because I'm still looking for a good & acrate load for them.

These will be shot out of my as issued #4 mk1.

Thank you all.


Sorry mods, could you please move this to the correct area.
Thank you.

Just about any medium speed powder would work. I get good results with 4895 (40 gr) and RL15 (42 gr). These are hot loads.

A BT bullet needs a good barrel to work well. A flat base is often better with a mediocre barrel.

I just found some BLC2, is this good enough to work on?
