Does anyone have any info on reloading with
Ramshot's Big Game powder in this caliber?
I would also appreciate any other good loads and powder in the caliber loading 350 gr bullets.
Thank,s

RCGPharms, I can't help with 350 grain or that powder, but I have used 400 grain Woodleigh FMJ and Varget.
You might want to contact Geoff at Woodleigh if you are using their bullets. He was very helpful. Good luck.

MileHighShooterRCG,
How did the Varget/400 work out for you? 10.75x68mm is on my build list. Actually had all the parts but decided to go 404 with my barrel, it was too heavy of a contour for a 10.75, but ive got brass, dies, reamers...sooo someday I'll build one

RCGMHS, I have an original Mauser model B made in 1911 in 10.75x68. I developed a load for an elephant hunt in 2011. I ultimately came up with a load of 66.5 grains of Varget with Horneber brass, Fed 215 Match primers and 400 grain Woodleigh FMJ at an ave MV of 2150 fps.
I have RCBS dies and a custom made Lee Factory Crimp Die. No pressure signs and very tolerable recoil. Geoff at Woodleigh was very helpful.
Good Luck
