Hodgdon and Berger 40 grains

Post by mzimmers »

I notice that Hodgdon doesn't list any loads for the Berger 40 grain bullet. Does anyone think I'd be unwise to just use the Hornady 40-grain data instead?

Standard reloading rules apply for an "unknown to reloading manual" bullet.....10% less than minimum and work your way up.

email with info sent. Anyone wanting either the 35g or 40g Berger info send me your email. It doesn't format well to view otherwise.
