I need load for.338 Win Mag, bullet 180 gr accubond
I am a hunter from finland. I need minimun and maximum load for .338 Win Mag. Bullet is 180 gr Nosler accubond, brass is norma and bowder is Vihtavuori N160. Can you tell me also min and max velocity. I cant find data here in finland.

Nosler has some on there web site but not with N160.

markkur,

The Nosler manual doesn't list N160 for the 180 grain bullet. They DO list N150, however. They also note it as "Most Accurate Powder Tested" for that bullet.

Start: 63.0 grains 3002 fps
Max: 67.0 grains 3149 fps

They don't list N160 until you get to the 200 grain bullets.

Loadtech gives 71.7 to 75.5. Which would just about a gr or so heavier than the loads listed by Nosler for the 200. The program stops at the maximum not for pressure but because the system will not load higher than 105% capacity.


As usual just my $.02
