nickh600 NE loads
Guys,
My VC is finished and will be on its way to oz soon!
I have started my loading for its impending arrival.
It has been regulated with Wolfgang Romey 900gr solids
I have been able to load 158grns of AR2213sc as per graham wrights loads with the woodleigh projectiles.
However with CEB 900 they are very compressed .
Any out there have any loads using the CEB's.?
Cheers
Nick
Ps we can't get IMR powders over here

cal pappasI've never seen a CEB but have all the data for Woodleighs if you'd like it. 4831 has been my choice for over 20 years but I may try RL 15 this summer.
Cal

nickhThanks Cal,
I can't get any 4831 in oz. we get ar2213sc which is similar , but the CEB mono metals are quite a bit longer than the woodleigh's , that's what's giving me the compression problem.
Cheers mate
Nick
Ps I'm using Bertram brass

CCMDocHi Nick!
Congratulations on your impending arrival. Cal and I often correspond about getting together a bunch of 577 and 600 folk for an African hunt. We will have to add you to the list.
I'm at work now but I'll go through my load book tonight to see what I've put together but I've used a lot of CEBs so may have something for you.
What other powders can you obtain?

CCMDocHi Nick,
If you can get Alliant Reloder you should be good.
Try these as starting loads and work up from them:
Aliant Reloder 17 - 134 grains
Aliant Reloder 19 - 138 grains
Or
ADI AR 2209 - 135 grains
Be safe and good luck
