Load Data for 444 and Cast Performance Bullets
« on: May 10, 2008, 03:39:58 AM »
Just bought a box of Cast Performance bullets (320gr) for my 444 Marlin. I can't find any load data for this bullet. I use IMR 4198 and 3031 powder. Any thoughts on this?

Reduce by 10% and work up carefully toward maximum watching for signs of excessive pressure or velocity.
