I’d like to work up some loads using the Woodleigh 347gr bullet and Bertram cases. I tried getting load data directly from the manufacturer but their reply stated that they “… don’t have data for that cartridge.”

Has anyone worked up a load using 5744 that they would share? If not I’ll start with the 40 percent formula. By the way, if 40% is the minimum, is there a recommended mid or max percentage for this powder? Thanks!
 
I just checked out your "request" on QuickLoad. Accurate 5744 isn't a good fit for that caliber and bullet weight.
 
Ok, thanks for the effort. I do have great luck with it in the 404 Jeff though.
 
I reload for both of my 404 Jeffery rifles. The most accurate load I've found is 84 Gr. of H4350 pushing a 400 Gr. bullet. The originator of this load used 400 Gr. Woodleigh RN SPs. When I can't get those, I use 400 Gr. Swift A Frames. Accuracy is sub-MOA. Velocity is 2300 FPS.
