Found some Remington 195gr bullets for 303 Savage.Guy that i bought them from said back them up with 33.0grs of IMR 3031 for 2100fps out of my 26in barreled Savage.
Does anybody load the 195gr in their 303 savage? If so what kind of velocities are you getting? And if your not using IMR 3031,what powder are you using?i also use IMR 4064 besides IMR 3031 in my 303s.But have heard RI-15 and H335 work well also.

I already handload for the 150gr,170gr,180gr,so my interest is in the 195grs.Thanks Enforcer

Enforcer,

I posted some information that you might find helpful on your thread at the Beartooth forum regarding 190 & 195 gr. bullets in the .303 Savage.

Also, you might try the 24hour campfire forum which has a Savage Rifle area http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=Savage

There is also a lever action forum there as well http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/postlist.php?Cat=&Board=UBB47&PHPSESSID=.

Good luck,
