340 Wby loads

[Greg Nolan]

Does anybody have pet loads for the 340 Wby. I'm looking at Accubonds in 225 or 250gr. but I'm open to whatever you've got. I've also got some 225 and 250 gr. Swift A-Frames.
Thanks
Greg

I use the 225 gr Partition in the .340 Weatherby. My best load for accuracy and for velocity is:
Norma (Weatherby) brass
225 Partition
215 Federal BR primers
IMR 7828SSC powder (86.0 gr)
Velocity-3080 fps (26 inch barrel)

I have been using this load for 2 years and have shot approximately 400 rounds through my Mark V with it. It is very close to maximum and should be approached from below. This load is only for rifles with Weatherby 3/8's inch freebore only! Accuracy is under MOA in my rifle at 200 yards.
