220gr 308 data
Can anyone supply data for a 220 gr. bullet for the 308 Winchester. I have a box of Woodleigh solids and would like to test them.

Thanks

I'd use data from Hodgdons, IMR or other powder mfr for regular 220 bullets except to further reduce starting loads by 10%

The reloading data I got from Northfork said to start 8% under normal starting loads.

That said you really should email Woodleigh for loading data.

Lyman 47 lists some 200gr loads and Lee also lists some 225 if you want'em I'll post.
