[QUOTE="Firewurx, post: 2120325, member: 89820"] Well you should start with the Hornady book, not the Nosler. Nosler data is for Nosler bullets. I wouldn’t expect accurate information from a loading manual put out by one bullet manufacturer while using a different bullet made by another. That’s your first error. Not to say that charge wouldn’t work, but first see what Hornady published on it, not Nosler, because an ELD isn’t going to fly like an Accu-bond. Sure you can get ideas and starting powder charges from anywhere, but start low and work up especially if you’re going to mix things up. I don’t think you were going to blow your face off, but mind good loading practices. Purchase the book put out by the manufacturer of the bullet you’re going to shoot. [/QUOTE]
