Whats your manual tell you?

[Ryan500]

I'm looking for some other manuals max loads for 7.62x54r with IMR 3031 and a 150gr FMJBT Bullet.

My Sierra one says 43.9gr and the other one I have sits at 45gr, a bit of a spread I guess.

If you have a manual with that load in it and don't mind sharing the max listed that would be great.

Looking for these numbers for load development on my new bullets.

Thanks, Ryan.

That actually isn't much of a spread at all.My manual lists 44.4.Start around 40gr and work up from there.

Thats the plan, start at 40.9 and work up... looking for other max loads like you have posted , thanks!
