reloading data for .243 87 gr Hornady BTHP

[Farlsincharge]

Would anyone have the reloading data for a .243 87 gr Hornady BTHP using H4350. I can't seem to find any info on this particular bullet.



Thanks

ive always believed in using a lader method .
H4350 is a awesome powder to start with. oal will always differ but 2.7 is in the ball park of my Remington.

my recommendation will always be ladder method now gone are the days of picking a load from someones load book and trying them out. but go to hodgdon reload center for those load data's http://www.districorp.ca/English/B-Square.htm

i think if you average between the 85 & the 90 grain data you can come up with a starting max load.

Id google ladder method if you dont know what it is . because between doing your own ladder tests and having a guide in the hodgdon database for start off areas i dont see in my eyes a better way to start off load development ive developed some very nice in same hole shooting bullets with this method.
