Anybody have any favorite loads for a WWG chambered in .50 Alaskan? I plan on starting with Starline brass and Woodleigh and LBT 500+ gr. bullets.

I use reloader 7 in mine with lead practice loads at about 1600 fps. I'm not home or I would give you the charge. For game use I like the 535 or new 500 grain woodeigh.
