gazzarM1 Posted November 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 Have done and there is some info....what I am looking for is some numbers in relation to starting load for Tinstar and 308 180 grainers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sean c Posted November 7, 2020 Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 Can't help with 180gn bullets but I'm using 175's so pretty close. I finalised my subsonic load last weekend with Tinstar. I started at 12gns and reduced from there. No special case prep and standard cci LR primers, I am using coated bullets though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deserttech Europe Posted November 7, 2020 Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 10.5 gr Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scotch_egg Posted November 7, 2020 Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 6 minutes ago, Deserttech Europe said: 10.5 gr I would start a little higher and work down. Also remember or check the bullet is stable without the mod! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
