26 Nosler data should be very close.
Working load in mine currently 142 Sierra,84 grains H-50BMG using 215M. Going to try RE-33 also with 130 C.E. bullets maxed out at 81 grains. Gun doesn't like that bullet though. For 140's I am going to start at 74 grains and work up. Dave

Looks like SAAMI forgot to renew its website back on the 12th so its set for deletion. Whoops! If you know any of the SAAMI data, I can create a cartridge profile in QuickLoad for it.

Thanks so much. I was simply going to start with 7 STW data (my finest shooting rifle ever) and back down 10% to start with. Just trying to shorten the learning curve.
