[QUOTE="shinbone, post: 2702624, member: 15248"] I think I'll start with Vihtavouri N560. I think the following makes sense, but anyone feel free to double check me: The Vihtavouri website for the 7mm Weatherby (smaller case capacity than the 28 Nosler) shows a max load of 78.2 gn for 120 gn projectile, and a max load of 69.9 gn for a 160 grain projectile. Interpolating between the two would give a max load of 74.0 gn for 140 grain projectile. Since I’m working with a lighter bullet and in a larger case, 74.0 gn should be a pretty conservative place to start. Anyone see any flaws in that reasoning? [/QUOTE]
