I wanna load up 140 gr. Accubonds for my .264 win mag. The version 6 of the book does not contain the load data. I called nosler and they said use the data for the 140 partition. I am wondering of someone has an older book and can verify this is correct and maybe scan the page and send it to me? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

If nobody answers you before I get home, I'll see if it's in the earlier versions that I have.

Thanks that would be great.

I have fifth edition. For 140 grains it references off of the Partition Spitzer.

Ok that's what I wanted to verify. Thanks

My Nosler #2 book has 140 grain spitzer(partition) but no other 140. What powder?

I bought the new book so I got the partition load data. I wish the would mention something about all the bullets they manufacture? I was just wondering if they had it in the older version by chance. Thanks guys

I've always thought that the bullet style was rather interchangeable for a given weight, assuming there wasn't a real change in seating depth (like the difference in a lead core vs a Barnes copper). I can only think of a few differences in performance between different styles at the muzzle and nothing that would affect company liability. I guess you could maybe argue that a round nose may impact the lands sooner than a spitzer and hence have a slightly higher pressure or something like that, but doubt it is much. And the reloading manuals always play CYA by saying to load reduced and work your way up to a max safe operating load.
