<Cobalt>Reduced Loads
My Dad quit reloading for his shotgun and gave me 5 lbs of Herco. Any one had any experience using this powder for reduced loads in .308, '.06 or .35 Whelan? Thanks, COBALT

<RGB>IMR4759 CAME OUT WITH JUST THAT IN MIND, PLUS IT WORKS EXCELLENT WITH CAST BULLETS. REFER TO #12-13 SPEER LOADING MANUALS THEY LIST REDUCED LOADS WITH POWDER. .RGB.

<bigbelly>In 308 I have used 10-14 gr. of herco in the past,increase until necks are not blackened and you should have a decent load,I use the lee .311 sks bullet moulds (either one)these are a great bullet over 10 gr. of red dot or 9 gr. 700x in 308 and 12 gr red dot in 30-06.hope this helps.
