300blk loads

[Krayz82]

So in a recent move I lost my load chart that was given to me by a friend, I have mixed brass, using Nosler RDF 168gr 30cal bullets, with H110 powder, but I can't find my load data now that I'm set to start loading it. Using the H110 and the 168gr Nosler RDF rounds, how much powder should I be using?

You're going to hit max around 18.0/H110 with the Nosler 168gr RDF in .300BLK. A good starting load would probably be around 16.5/H110.

H110/W296 is my most-used powder for 110-125gr supersonic loads in the .300 Blackout. But that's not really a very good powder for your 168gr RDF. That 18.0 gr max load is only going to be giving you in the neighborhood of 89% case fill. Not usually conducive to great accuracy.

Here's a chart, in descending order of velocity, of other powders you might consider...

I appreciate this greatly! I'll save the H110 for lighter grain loads, and I'll keep an eye out for some others.

Get your hands on some 125 grain TNT varmint bullets to go with that H110. Inexpensive bullets and pretty darn accurate out of my 10" suppressed barrel. That's a supersonic load. I have consistently banged steel plates at 500 yards with this load. Pull the trigger, lay rifle down and get a sip of water and wait for the sound. Works every time.
