Hi, I am new to reloading. I will appreciate if somebody can help me with gun powder recommendations and grain of load on 150gr and 174gr bullets. The recommended powder listing comming with the dies is not all familiar in South Africa. Equivalent powder will also help. Regards
 
So far I did not get any replies on reload info for my .303. Anybody to assist wil be much appreciated. Regards
 
For 150 Gr IMR 4895 with a charge of 41 Gr will yield 2409 fps
or some H380 at 42 Gr about 2300
can't find any 174 but 180 with IMR 4895 at 39gr will get you 2200fps and H380 with 41Gr will get you 2127fps,, I went back to a 45 edition Lyman Reloading handbook for this Information hope it helps

Your welcome, I'll check a later book and see about your 174 load
 
Morne303... please list the name¨s of powder you can take here in your home! Are here IMR 3031? it´s a good option!...
43 grs of 3031 makes a good shot!

Just moving to DM. Yes, please ask your friend if he knows somebody who might be willing to support a persistent hunt in the snow.

Hi Paul,
This is Daniel from Mankazana Safaris.

I saw your post regarding a hunt in Africa. I am sure you have been bombarded with messages and replies from other outfitters, so I will keep this one quick.
I have a feeling we have exactly what you need for a first safari.
If you'd like to hear more, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Yours sincerely,

If you ever decide to sell this rifle, I will buy it with the dies, bullet, brass, the works. Dan
