[QUOTE="hawk45, post: 1245824, member: 27634"] Nosler also offers free load data on their website with the most accurate powder designated. Keep in mind to that some powders are temperature sensitive (faster when it's hot, slower when cold). Determine the temp you plan to shoot the most and make sure you aren't going to be over max loads if you happen to shoot in a hot temp. There are "extreme" powders that cut down or eliminate those temp sensitivities, like Hogdon powders. Also, I think Wincheters run 1:10 twist on their .243s, so just make sure you pick a bullet that is optimized for your barrel twist and altitude. You can get away with a little less twist at higher altitude. [/QUOTE]
