Link at the bottom of the page takes you to the Hodgdon (note spelling) website. You did not mention what caliber you are loading. Asking for load data on an open website is very dangerous- Here on Wikianswers, anyone may ask or ANSWER a question, with no verification of credentials. For all you know, I am 12 yrs old, and Mom does not know I am on the computer. Good luck with your reloading, shoot safe (and often)
Try the Hogdon website:http:/data.hodgdon.com/main_menu.aspAsking random strangers for load data is not a safe thing to do. You also failed to mention for what caliber cartridge.
Yes, what powder are you using?
First, for your safety please DO NOT solicit reloading data from anonymous sources on the internet. In wikianswers- anyone can answer a question- for all you know, I am 12 years old, and Mom does not know I am on the computer (I'm not- but that is beside the point) Hornady does not recommend IMR 3031 for the 160 gr FTX bullet in 30-30. This is a link to the Hornady reloading page for your caliber. PLEASE do not use reload data except that which is published by a powder company, a bullet maker, or manufacturer of reloading equipment. Safe shooting to you= C3. supervisor
Google Alliant Powder on first page click on VIEW THE GUIDE there is the list for reloading.
Any of the major powder or projectile makers who publish reloading manuals can get you started in the right direction; Speer, Hornady, Nosler, etc..
If you were to go to hodgdon,s web site there is a site entitled load data.Just pick the caliber first,then the bullet weight,then the powder maker,the site will show you the starting load in grains for the powder you choose and the max powder charge in grains also.Good luck!
The reloading data depends on the powder being used and the bullet weight. Try doing a web search for 308 reloading data and you will find lots of useful information.
You will have to experiment to find out. Start with available reloading manuals
You MUST consult a CURRENT reloading manual from one of the major powder/ammunition makers.
If you are reloading ammunition, and you used powder that burns faster than the specification for your bullet and cartridge, your ammunition could explode, leading to possible grievous injury on your part. You could also use powder that burns slower than called for by the specification, in which case, your ammunition would fail to adequately propel the bullet, or it might jam in your firearm.Commercial nitrocellulose/nitroglycerin powder (smokeless powder) must be matched to the ammunition and firearm. The powder manufacturers publish "reloading guides" for their powders, and many of them can be found on the internet.There is no excuse for injuries resulting from incorrect reloading of ammunition. Always use the reloading guides, and even then, work very carefully and be alert when shooting.
There are hundreds of possible loads, depending on WHICH powder, and WHICH bullet. Rather than give you a load, we would rather refer you to a good reloading manual. Lyman makes a very good manual. The amount of powder must be correct for THAT type of powder AND the weight/type of bullet used.
A bullet is the metal projectile that flies out of the barrel. A cartridge is the case, powder, bullet and primer all put together. A typical bullet weight for a 223 is 55 grains, although they come lighter and heavier. The weight of the powder inside the case will vary from (roughly) 22 grains to 28 grains, depending on what kind of powder you use and how heavy the bullet is. If you are going to reload 223 ammunition, get a good reloading manual for specific amounts.
