    8X56R Steyr reloading

    Anyone have load data for a 175 gr Spitzer for this round? Trying to reduce recoil a little.

    I had one of those rifles before.
    I only loaded it with 175 Cast Boolits.
    Mostly with Unique.
    There was very little recoil with those loads.

    There's some 180 grain JHP data here...

    Should be close enough to work with.
