I am building a 300 Whisper on a 722 Remington action to use as a cast bullet shooter. I should have it in a week. I have the reform die ,223 cases and plenty of 30 cal cast booltis of different sizes.

Problem is what loads do I use. I have Red Dot, Unique, 700x, H322, 4895,Varget and H2227.

Can I get some loads out these powders that will give 1600fps plus or minus?

Thanks much and Happy Thanksgiving.

CENTEX BILL,

I am quoting out of the abcs of reloading book,5th edition

with 221 fireball cases,j-word bullets, h4227 powder

220 gr 9.2=1006 fps

250 gr 9.2gr=1011fps

250 gr 9.4=1027fps


as you see these are all subsonic in a 16.5 in bbl.

none of the other powders you mention are listed as being used.





with 125 nosler ballistic tip 20.6 gr of h-110 produced 2333fps out of same bbl,and is supersonic.

remington 7 1/2 primers were used in all loading

i hope you can find some use of this and translate to cast boolits.

the 300 whisper is based on the 30carbine brass,if yours has a sholder it would probably be called a .30 whisper acording to this article by j.d. jones

i hope it helps
