[QUOTE="TaergEno, post: 961384, member: 37489"] Would one of those L.E. Wilson gauges be a good investment? Also, I just got some Vihtavuori N160 and some Swift Scirocco II 210gr bullets. I wanted to start working up loads for this and I cannot find anything relating to the 210gr bullets. I have contacted Swift and have yet to hear back from them. I looked up the VV reloading info and they have load data for 200gr and 225gr and up. Same with looking up Nosler and such, everything is 200gr or 225gr+. What would be the best way to go about loading for 210gr? Should I take the VV load for the 200 and the load from 225 and average them? And use those numbers for the 210gr bullets? A straight avg of 200+225 gives 212.5, which is fairly close to 210gr. So I would think just doing the same with the load data would work. But I also feel that the bullet B.C. may play a role in the load so I am not sure if some more math would be needed to incorporate the B.C. into the load data. To come up with a safe load range to utilize. VV Load Data: 200gr Min/Max = 89.6/96.0 225gr Min/Max = 78.3/87.0 Proposed 210gr Min/Max = 83.95/91.5 (Based on avg of the 200gr/225gr load data) Any ideas/suggestions? [/QUOTE]
