H-Varget or Varget
Thanks to all, and to Loader 9, for the link. Also, the caution about using the US vs AU load data. It seems the the AU loads begin at 47 grain not 49 I read somewhere. I backed off 10% and first load was around 44 grains. My load data is outside. That figure (44 grains). Since I'm loading just to have a working 1903, I'll stay with 150 Hornady and 49 to 50 grains of Varget.
This rifle is a reminded of the one my Gran dad let me drag around in the early 1950's. It brings back a lot of great memories. Too bad we can't go back to those time, even if just for a little while.
