[QUOTE="358sta, post: 751497, member: 6336"] My father is having a wildcat rifle finished up in 416 Lapua (338 Lapua necked up to 416 with no other changes). Since there isn't any data out there for this cartridge, I wanted to use Quick Load to give me a starting point for power type (burn speed) and a starting charge. Now to my question. Since the 416 Lapua isn't in the cartridge database, can I pull up the 338 Lapua cartridge and modify the caliber, cross sectional area, etc. to get some initial data? I know it would be better if I had the Quick Design companion to Quick Load for custom cartridge creation. I'm trying to save the additional $152 cost by doing the way I stated above. Just not sure that my way will give accurate results. Thanks. Kevin [/QUOTE]
