Long story short, I loaded a selection of these with powder charges ranging from 45.0gr to 46.5gr, prior to leaving my Nosler manual in Colorado (read lost). Anyway could someone please verify this powder and charge weight from their manual for me until I can get another manual? I just want to double check the data for my loads before we sight in for elk. I had the version 5 manual, I believe, the one that is brown with a moose on the cover.
Also, anyone used this bullet/powder combo and have any thoughts to share? I went off a powder recommendation from the reloading guy at Cableas and I have not seen too many folks using the IMR4320, most seem to use 4350 and I am not sure of the difference in these too. Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much for checking that. I just did a quick search online to order a Nosler manual and I could not find anyone that has it in stock. Any ideas where I could order the current one from now? Thanks again.
 
Nosler will have the RG #6 out within the next 30 days.
