[QUOTE="jtoews110, post: 212862, member: 11727"] That is what I was afraid of. I'll have to use whatever H870 data for WC868 or AA8700 data for WC860 then reduce by 15% from posted max load and work up watching for pressure signs on the primer, case head/web area & bolt lift? Thanks for the help, I'll enjoy working up the new loads. If I don't get the time to do it before season I'll just use the loads I have on hand or use up the last 3500 grns retumbo I've got left. I'm going to get my powder end of July, so I've got my work cut out for me. From what is posted on here I'll have to work up a cold weather load as well because hunting season temp ranges between +5C/40F down to -25C/-20F. Oh well, might have to try some of our local Canadian Wildcat bullets too while I'm doing load development. I was thinking of trying the 150grn .264 bullets. Jason. [/QUOTE]
