[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 859068, member: 5219"] Hodgdon lists the 243 win and Retumbo for a 105gr and 107 gr bullet. The lowest charge is 46 gr and maximum is 49 gr. Also states 49 grains is compressed. [url=http://data.hodgdon.com/cartridge_load.asp]Cartridge Loads - Hodgdon Reloading Data Center - data.hodgdon.com[/url] I just used a drop tube and a fireformed 243 case. Max powder charge right up to the neck is 50 grains. I'd bet you couldn't get enough powder in the case to have too much pressure with a 90 or 95 grain bullet. I'd use a drop tube and start around 47 gr and work up for most accurate load. [/QUOTE]
