Nosler load data
« on: April 19, 2004, 01:52:04 PM »
I need the load data for the Nosler Ballistic tip  55grain in .243
I would like to use Varget since I have it on the shelf.

Thanks

Thanks I didn't think to look there.
Has anyone had any luck with this type of bullet?

Nosler Manual
« Reply #4 on: April 21, 2004, 05:14:46 PM »
The Nosler manual indicates that the most accurate powder tested with the 55 grain BT is H414, with the most accurate load at 53.5 grains which also is their Max load call-out.

For Varget they call for 41.5 grains to 45.5 max. They state that 41.5 grains is the most accurat load tested.
