Shandlanos 1,470 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 Sorry, not sure - I've only ever loaded 158-gr. Was not aware such heavy bullets could be loaded. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fallschirmjager667 729 Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 i don't know about reloading, but i like 200gr corbon or 180gr buffalo bore in my gp100, and with the price of that ammo i better start loading my own Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IndyArms 10,186 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 NO data from Hodgdon for 200 grain bullets. Check out the loading data on the hodgdon website. it will help you out. But they don't list any data for the 180 grain bullets except for the Nosler partition. A different bullet of the same weight should start with a lighter load, check for pressure signs and work up. 180 GR.

IndyArms 10,186 Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Not a problem... You would be surprised how many folks reload that have NO IDEA they can look up data at a powder manufacturers website!!! "UP: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
