Looking for some load data
« on: October 31, 2009, 05:28:58 AM »
I want to load up some lite 500 s&w with lead bullets and trail boss powder...

 I wonder if anyone knows of any published data for these components?

Thanks in advance!!

On their website, IMR / Hogdon show load data for 370 and 440 GR. Cast Performance Bullets Lead Gas Check, don't know if that is what you are looking for.

They'll be subsonic, even if you fill the case to the bottom of the bullet.

PERFECT!!  I KNEW I could count of you guys!!!

I have a bunch of freshly cast 440WFGC bullets to load. Sub sonic is just fine, hoping for 22LT kinda velocities. So that's perfect.

 I'm heading down to the loading room!!!

Thanks again, Night all.
