Need load data for the Nosler 250gr HG Partition bullet in 44mag

[Charlie-NY]

Anyone have some data to share for the Nosler 250gr HG? I will be testing this bullet in a Ruger carbine, semi-auto rifle (new manufacture) and a SRH revolver.

I must be blind or something. I even checked Nosler's web site and somehow missed that info.

THANKS

It appears that the max charges are light, but with high velocity with the 296/110 charges...
Considerably less than what the jacketed Hornady or Sierra data call for but please note with 240gr...
But still, the 265gr jacketed Hornady loads call for more powder and the Hornady in general are noted to be lighter charge weights per deeper seating depth.

What am I missing here? I have never used a nosler pistol bullet so have no basis for comparison on the total bullet lenght and or seating depth to compare with Hornady or Sierra.

glanceblamm I don't have any idea of what you are trying to say or to ask.  Please try again.

What I was trying to say was that when I viewed the Nosler data in the link, the max charges appeared to be light when 296 is used as compared to three other sources that I have.

Two of my sources are loading manuals with the third being John Taffin Data. These are with Hornady & Sierra jacketed bullets only. The jacketed bullets listed in my data are 240gr instead of 250gr like the Nosler bullet, but I have data for a 265gr XTP bullet that still exceeds what Nosler recommends for their 250gr when using 296.

It just gave me a start when I saw the max charges as listed by Nosler. It is almost like my starting loads in grains of 296 are heavier than their max loads listed!
I was trying to come up with a reason for this and it seems that it may be because of the Nosler bullet it's self. This bullet cant be off that far can it? the diameter is listed, but the bullets oal & seating depth are unknown to me.

All load data will be different. Some load data is printed lower for safety reasons and for companies to cover there butts.  I own quit a few reloading manuals, so when I reload with a certain bullet, the reloading data for that particular bullet is what I use.  Yes the data for the 250gr  Nosler bullet is lower than the Hornady data for the  XTP. Even the load data for the Barnes bullets is different. I have a 225 gr. bullet with W296 listed at 21.0 gr. starting load and 22 gr. for a max load. All data is different because of the bullet design.

The other bullets like the 265 Hornady are of conventional cup and core design but not so with the Nosler PT. It has the solid metal partition in there and that makes it a harder bullet and less easily pushed thru the rifling. That makes pressures rise faster so less powder is used. This also applies to some extent with the PT and BT rifle bullets but not enough to require different powder charges. BUT load the same weight of both and you'll get higher velocity from the PT because the pressures are a bit higher.

Thanks Guy’s
I knew that a lot of the pamplets ran conservative so as to protect from liability. The high velocitys listed for the Nosler put an additional twist on the subject which prompted my post. Graybeard’s especially makes good sense as I had not considered the solid metal partitioned Nosler and it’s hardness verse the more conventional cup n core designs.
