Remington FNEB bullets
« on: June 19, 2010, 03:02:36 PM »
These {Flat Nose Enclosed Base} are FMJ except that the opposite end {the nose} shows the lead core.   Question is:  Do I load them as a FMJ or go it safe, say 10% lower than the required start load ?

I searched the internet to no avail, even e-mailed Remington, and received an auto reply to load them safely!  ::)

I would use load data for the same grain weight of soft point or FMJ bullet assuming relatively similar profile. I don't see that there would be much difference. Begin at starting load levels of course.

+1      I would also use the same load data as for FMJ as my starting point.

Thanks for the response Dan and Paul.  I'll build a few loads according to the fmj starting point and try them out.
