Just picked up a 30 nosler rifle. Reloading info is scarce. Is anybody here reloading for this round? Can I take the same weight bullets/powder charges from the nosler manual and apply them to other bullet manufacturers? I normally have something to go by with other rounds lol. This one has me a bit stumped and I am a bit worried about making poor assumptions.
 
Thanks, I had found that info after my post, also some on reliable shooter. I am hoping to find something on 215g berger, or even some advice on interpolation of powder charges from the nosler book to comparable weight bullets from other manufacturers.
 
How would I go about selecting a safe starting load for a round I can't find info on? I know alot of the signs when pressure is reaching its peak, but that starting point with different powders, I haven't figured that out yet
 
30N has 6% larger case capacity than the 300wm, so starting at 300wm data and working up will not cause any issues

That’s the combo I’ll be using once my 30 Nosler is ready.

I found longrangeonly.com to be a good source for 30 Nosler info.
 
I just bought a Wilson case trimmer, it has the nosler26/28 case holder, should be good for the 30 nosler I hope, Wilson doesn't list a holder for the 30, but I guess I will find out when everything gets here
 
I've found my M48 , 30 Nosler I got from Todbartells shop a few years ago really likes RL22 for accuracy with both 200gr partitions and 178 ELD-x's...getting well under .75" groups consistently.

RL 25 and 26 were 50-75 ft/s or so faster but not as accurate.
