45-70 reloading data
Ok, just got in my beartooth bullets of 350, 405 and 525 gr. I've got reloader-7 and some H4198. I'm looking for load data for the 350 and 405 gr bullets, they have load data for the 525 up on the site, but I can't find any for the other weights. On their loadshare site they've got some data, but its for different bullets, same weights. I thought load data got shipped with the bullets, guess not.
My rifle is a 1895GS, the bullets are gas checked, pre-lubed, and sized .460, LFNGC.

I have a Lee 350 FNGC that I size to .460 and push it with 40.0 gr of RL7 out of my 1895G for 1612 fps / 40 AD / 106 ES.
Work it up from there, it seems like the more powder I add the higher the velocities and lower deviation I get. |

Thats almost the same level they say to start with for the 525 gr. 39.9 for the pile drivers.
