Can I use N140 for 210gn bullets in 375H&H?

...Start at about 69grains and work up to say a max of 78?

I just can't get my hands on any alternatives at the moment...

Thanks steve, I have looked at your site, but there is no info on loading with VV N140 for a 210gn bullet.

Do you think I could use the doses I mentioned?

Your range sounds about right...but the reason I don't include that powder with that bullet weight is that I found that it really isn't the best choice for bullets under 225 grains.

I actually found Ball-C (2) the best for a 210 grain bullet.

...I tried 70grains of N140, although at 50meters only so far.
They made one ragged hole, so I think it might work out ok!
