I'm just wondering if anyone is loading for a .219 Zipper. I'm looking for data with up to date powders and am haveing very little luck. i was using some AA 2230-C would like to change to soemthign i can load in my .243 aswell. I load 45grns in my Zipper and 65-75 grns in my .243. Can anyone help me out.

Thanks
Tim

First off,you didn,t say what grain bullets you were loading in each,no biggy. Its nice to use just one powder to load different type calibers.This is one reason some companies come out with "universal type'.It is handy that way.If you go to a book store,and buy the book "Cartridges of the world"by Franck C. Barnes/M.L.Pherson--a Krause publication. -- www.krause.com this will answer many of your question.Yes there is loads with the same type powders for both in this book,such as using IMR 4320,IMR4064,H-380 and others.I know that this will help you a lot now and in the future,in your questions to come. hope i helped. vangunsmith

Not to be rude but I sure did. The .45grn are Hornady "Bee" hollow points and the 65-75grn for the .243 are either Hornady Vmax (65&75grn) or Seirra Blitzking 70grn. Thanks for the book idea but trying to find something like that in Canada is quite hard. I've also alwayss seemed to ahve a hard time getting stuff shipped in from the US.

Thanks

If one can,t order a book from a book company on reloading,HOW in the heck can you buy powder and components there then? Its kinda a puzzlement on this end! van

Bullets and powder I get from my local shop they also carry books but are pretty much limited to up to date manufactures ones like Hornady and Sierra, etc.

Its actually my brothers page...feel free to e-mail him. He would be thrilled to talk to anyone else with an interest in orphan/obsolete rounds.

I'll do that...thanks. I have a few questions for him.

It's real simple. Email the folks at Accurate Powder. They will email you data. They are very quick. Johan will email you back.

They've sent me data for such obscure cartridges as the 8x56R and 8x60S.

Accurate actually has some data post on their site. the only problem is that their powder isn't avalaible in my area. thanks for the idea though.
