Does anyone have reloading data for 140 or 160 grain bullets

140gn. bullet
35gn. 4895, 2400 fps.
36gn. 3031, 2450 fps.
160gn. bullet 37gn., 4064 2260 fps
these loads are from an old Lyman manual.
roger

thanks for that. Got me some 160's a few weeks ago.

Roger Thank you. There doesn't seem to be much published info on this cartridge, as for being from an old book thats ok it is an old rifle
Thanks again Dave

Just worked up a good load using IMR4350 and the hornady 160 grain round nose bullet. 40.5 grains gave the best accuracy in a 1903 carbine. 3 shots touching at 50 yards, norma cases.

Can you use 6.5x55 data as a reference? I would think you can

Generaly like

H4350 with 129 gr bullets

H4831 with Hornaday 160s

R22 or full case of imr7828 with 140s



.

Try an old Hornady or Sierra manual. They both have data.
No DO NOT USE 6.5x55 Swede data.

You can use Arasaka and Carcano data but stay away from 6.5x55 data. roger

The new Hornady, Weiderladen-RWS, Weiderladen-DEVA and Ladeboken manuals have good load data.

Your first step is to have the bore slugged so you know what size/Brand of bullet you need.
