Good evening all,is anyone homeloading these particular projectiles ,l am looking for data,powders to use etc.
Lapua Naturalis come close as a workup load.l asked HK if any available data with Ramshot powders but they had none.

Just look up a 165 gn and 180 gn and split the difference.

Not trying to teach granny to suck eggs but make sure that you comparing like for like and are looking up copper bullets in those weight ranges and not just conventional lead core bullets.

Or you could use Nosler Load data for 168gr E-Tip - I have been using this for 10 years in my .300 Win mag,
better approximation I might suggest - not impressed with the accuracy quoted, that would be an issue for me
