I would like to try this with my 9.3 Chapuis. If anyone who has tried it can suggest a load I would appreciate it.
Most people I know with 9.3 DR's have been able to get it to work.

You can only give it a go.

They (the 9.3's) seem to be a bit like the 375H&H in being able to
get all bullets to work.

You will have to try the 320"s to see if they regulate in your Double, they did in Jack and Shown's Doudles

Yep, I know I'll have to try but:

Can anyone suggest a load that I can start with?

I don't know what powders you use but the powders we use over here are sold in the US under another name (I can never remember which is which so won't post on this)


Have a look at the ADI reloading manual.
It has loads for 300gns so 320gns won't be much different.

Up top is a Powder equivalent page which shows the other powders
including the Hogdon series.

Jack used 56.5 grains of 4064 behind the Woodliegh in his Chapuis, that load was too hot for Shawn's Merkel
