Am about to start reloading for .243, using 100gr bullets (probably Sierra Prohunter or Gameking) and N160 powder.
I am struggling to find load data; Viht manuals vary wildly with the latest giving 39.8gr as max load and an older manual 46.9gr, both for 100gr bullets. The Sierra data and Hornady manual I have don't list it for 100gr. Most loads I see posted online mention around 42gr, so currently thinking of starting at 38gr and working up, but I wondered if anyone could share any other min-max data for the above? Thanks in advance.
