    n133 in the 6x45

    Was given a lb of n133 and would like to use it in the 6x45 either cast 85 gr or some j-words. Does anyone use this powder , is there powder I could sub. data from?

    Was told I would be safe starting at 18gr. This is the only load given to me so far.

    It's roughly equivalent in burn rate to ADI's AR2219, and there is some data on ADI Powder's website for 6x45 using that powder. Not much data out there for the 6x45. Western powder also has data for Accurate 2015, which is another near equivalent for n133. I like the ADI data, gives you pressures for start loads.

    Vihtavouri has online data for most common cartridges. Haven't seen 6x45 data but here's page just in case

    In the 6TCU with light bullets my experience is this as far as relative speed-
    Spaces indicate further vel differences.

    H4198

    Norma 200
    AA2200

    N133
    AA2015
    H322
    Norma 201
    Benchmark

    WC844



    While I haven't tried LT32 in the 6TCU yet I have tried LT30, and I'm estimating LT32 and N133 are quite close to each other, just as they are in the 6PPC, which is very close to the 6TCU in case capacity.
    I think you could use LT32 start data for the bullet selected, WP has a pretty big 6x45 section in their current v6.0 manual.
