.243 coyote hand loads
« on: March 17, 2010, 07:18:51 PM »
Anyone have a good recipe for some 55gr ballistic tips for the .243 win? I'm not finding many loads under 70gr hp. Any info will help. I'll be going to the gun show in portland to pick up some powders. Not sure what to go with, maybe some VARGET? H414?

h380 is great for the 22-284 cal rifles that is what i use and love in my smaller cal and h335 for my bushys in 223 is the only exception for me.
