H-414 Load Required for 90gn .243 Win


Oly

Recommended Posts

OK, just had a look through my usual data (inc reloaders nest) and I'm in need of a load for a 90gn (Nosler Ballisitic Tip is the exact round) for my .243Win using H-414 powder.

 

Cheers :D

OK, ignore the above...I've found one on the Hodgdon wesbite :D

 

However, i anyone reloads this calibre using H-414 and has any further data (of all weights of bullet head) it would always be appreciated! :(

I have a 243 I was struggling with until I started loading at sammi spec, 90grn Nosler balistic tips with 40.4 grns of Reloader 19 OAL 2.650

I have also used 41.5grns of N 140 seated at a very short 2.230 and they were shooting less than a 1/4 inch group at 100yds.

If I hadn't found these loads I was ready to beat the rifle against the wall :rolleyes:

H4350 or IMR 4350 are recognised as about the best powders for this cal and most bullets.

I have had wonderful results with the Speer 75gr hp ( not the tnt one) and 48grs of H4831SC, better than .6" at 250yds, great for varmints, a bit lightweight for Roe. Stag 1933is having fun with these at the moment too using N160 amd Federal 210m primers, worth a try.

Mine were loaded .040" off the rifling and using CCI 200 BR primers, any closer opened up the groups, not sure where stag is loading his but it wont be touching for sure.

Absolutely brilliant - thanks Dan! :rolleyes: I take it those loads are only the ones for H414? Redfox - gone down the H414 route as it seems to be the mostly widely available powder for getting a good range of bullet weight loads. Been loading to 0.030" off the rifling at present, but will be playing around some more with that soon.
