good loads for 32 gr. Nosler BT ?

Post by cshooter »

Came across a box of Nosler 32 gr. Balistic tips for the 204, but I can't find any reload info on this bullet. This site has info for the 40 gr. only. Anybody have any good loads with this bullet ? Thanks for he help. chris

I'd use the load data for either the 32 V-Max or 32 BlitzKing.

These two loads are in the "Favorite Loads" thread.
32 Sierra BK, 27.5 grains of H322, Hornady case, Federal 205m primer, velocity was 4031 fps and accuracy .4@100 yds. The 32 grain Hornady Vmax with the same load shot in the 5's. I shot the same load in Winchester cases and got 4107 fps and the same accuracy as the Hornady brass. Accuracy and point of impact has remained consistant even at 95 degrees F. using either brand of brass.

What Waldo said!! I'm getting under 1/2" accuracy using the loads I use for the other bullets, which is plenty good enough for my needs.
