DRILLING

[tr6]

hi i have joined the site after it came up on my search engine when i was looking for help with loads for 8-72R 318calibre cartridges, i live in mid bucks have springers for game shooting both beating and picking up. I have been involved with all field sports all my life including hunting hounds aswell as shooting

Welcome, this looks very like the 8x58R case on my drilling.

Thanks for the reply guys , I am looking to load 180grn projectiles with a slow burning vit165 powder and am struggling to find a starting point , I’ve tried vit140 but it seems a bit too punchy for this old girl

GRT does not show 180 grain bullets for this calibre.
But here is the max load before I got warning notice from the GRT programme.
