Re: Titewad

You don't need data. I'm certain you can go up to 5 gr safely with a 147. Max pressure is 55,000-62,000psi. No way you're exceeding that with 5gr of pistol/shotgun powder and a relatively light bullet. I tend to agree considering considering the max pressure of 32-20 is 16k CUP and gmdr was using 5...

Re: Titewad

Ya I think I'm only getting 750FPS with a 147gr load and I'm not super comfortable going over 3.5 grains without more data.

Titewad

So I know there is no data out there for Titewad powder to feed into QL.. My question is, do you think there is any reasonably safe way to use the data for Titewad for various calibers and bullet weights from http://www.gmdr.com/lever/lowveldata.htm in order to come up with a subsonic bolt action lo...

Hey thanks for reading--- can I reload the 190gr sub-x bullets using the Hornady reloading guide for 190gr bullets as a rough starting point? I just want to confirm that the maximum loads shown for 190 sub-x are just for keeping the bullet subsonic...

Re: Problem first time loading subs

Honestly with those velocities, I would be checking bullet diameter and bore diameter. If those check out, I would try a different chronograph. No reason to be that slow with that much 1680. Hmm. I just measured 10 bullets all at .308 Chrono seems fine I shot some .22s and some 110 grain 300s if i ...

Re: Problem first time loading subs

Not enough information. Barrel length and exact bullet are needed to give any ore than general help. But genera l help may be all you need for this. Where did your data come from? If they list 12 grains as maximum, it’s probably not he best data since it is likely a max load for a 220 grain bullet ...
