.243 Handloads for Remington Core-lokt
« on: November 07, 2012, 04:10:27 PM »
So new guy here to reloading and I have been reloading the Nosler Ballastic Tips in 95 gr. and they have done just fine.  I picked up a bag of .243 remington Core-lokt bullets to make some for my kids to shoot(much cheaper) to get used to shooting.  I am unable to find any reliable load data for these particular bullets.  Pointing me in the right direction would be much appreciated.

What weight? You can find a bullet with the same weight and style as the corelok and start at the starting load.

I worked up a load using IMR 4350 with a 100gr Hornaday interlock bullet. Very accurate, and deadly. Google IMR reloading data, and look around there. Lots of goot info.
I felt like a one legged cat trying to bury a terd on a frozen pond!
