Hi, I have been successfully using 40gn of N140 in a PPU case with a PPU 174gn FMJ BT - this load falls pretty much in the middle of the Vhit loading data and seems to be very widely used.
Here's the question though.... I bought some 170gn PPU FMJ BT - as I couldn't get the 174 - however there's no load data for that weight bullet on the Vhit tables. Should I use the starting load for 174 and work up? The bullet profiles are similar other than a shorter BT on the 170.
Thanks in advance, Dave
