Thank you very much JimBires, I have some start charges at 47 .0 gr increased by .5 increments to 50.0 gr.

Should I start lower ?

Thanks again, Ray.
 
going by the chart above , 47.0 is 3.5 grains under max . I'd start there without worry . usually the starting load in books are 4.0 grains under max . I've never found a starting powder charge to be the best . as you work up just watch for pressure .

Thank you for the insight, the 08 is new to me for handloading and reading ridge runners post about QL ,I know I should be measuring overfill capacity with a fired case but I'm not there yet because I have to fire this Nosler brass first.

I'm going by Nosler data and ramshot , I wanted to see QL as a reference as well.

Thanks again , Ray.

PS: I meant to say thanks for the W760 QL Data too ( a while back ).
 
I neck size only new brass 2 or 3 times to get it fully expanded , before I check water capacity . I'll just use 5 pieces for this , it gives me a good idea what capacity I'm working with . RL17 will usually give about the fastest velocity , if you have some to try . keep us up to date with your work up .


here is a powder chart with your bullet and 20"bbl .


Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 60191 psi, or 415 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 105 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !

1 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 90%. These powders have been skipped.
