WHos got a Hornady manual?
« on: December 13, 2004, 03:44:50 PM »
I need the max load for a 280 Rem, 139 gr bullet and H4831 powder, and the same for a 280 Rem, 154 gr bullet and H4831.  My Hornady manual is the third edition, and I think the max's are on the high side.

Many Thanks!
Regards,

Tom

Of all the things I've lost in my life, I miss my mind the most.

How about a stroll down memory lane? I have the October 1967 Hornady manual. It shows 53.0 to 59.5 for the 139 gr. spire point and 50.1 to 57.0 gr. for the 154 gr. both with 4831.
