Uhh, you've kinda left out a few details there Big D. Like....caliber?

[Guest Big D]

Duh, well yes I did. It's been a very long day. It's for 30-30.

Thanks

I found this site but you're on your own if you use the data. It's not certified and apparently Hodgdon doesn't list any data for it.

THE SINGLE SHOT CONTENDER 30-30

Thanks. I'm told that the Speer and Sierra manuals list it but I can't find it on the web.

I found this thread about the 30-30 and H322. Hope this helps.

H322 for the 30-30 - THR

SOmetimes there's a reason you can't find data for a particular powder in a particular cartridge.....maybe you should find some different powder.

The Speer Number Ten Manual lists 27 grains of H322 for a starting load with a 150 grain bullet. It lists 31 as max.

The Hornady Third Edition Manual lists 28.8 for a starting load and 31.7 as max using there 150 round nose bullet.

This should get you in the ball park.

There are so many newer powders on the market today that a lot of older powders get bypassed. I have lots of old reloading manuals for that very reason. Many of the newer powders are just upgrades of the older, which is a good thing, they are cleaner and less temperature sensitive. However, many of us are used to using certain powders for years and we don't like to change....call us stubborn old coots. Don't mess with my 748, my 2400, my Unique and Bullseye, etc.

That being said, I will now double talk, I would highly recommend IMR 3031 and Winchester 748 for the 30-30 though H322 should work OK.

I definitely fall into that catergory.
