318 Westley Richards load data for 250 grain Barnes original .330 bullets

[Rem700stw]

I am finalizing the build of a 318 W.R. With wood Leigh unavailable I found some Barnes original 250 grain .330 bullets. Does anyone have any experience loading these? Any favorite recipes?

I Have a 318 WR built on a Parker Hale M98 with a modern 1-10 twist button rifled bbl, if the Barnes orig bullets are lead core use Woodleigh 250g data, i use 54g of AR2209 = H4350 in reformed Win & Rem 30/06 cases. Maybe start at 52 g . With the Barnes Good luck.

What velocity does that give you?

I do not know as i do not have a chronograph, the Woodleigh book states 55g of H4350 with a 250 g bullet at 2400 fps with a 26 inch bbl, my bbl is 25inch,
