Is there anyone on this forum who reloads for .307 Win?
A friend of mine is buying a Winchester 94 lever rifle in this caliber and wants some tips.
Would it be OK to use .308 Win dies and a 30-30 shellholder?
How much less powder is recommended than for .308 WIn? We only have Norma and Vihtavuori powders here in Sweden, so an approximate percentage number would be appreciated...

Years back I played with a 307 , in my pre cast life .
Great rifle .
Wish I didn't have to sell it .

Yep 308 dies and a 30/30 shell holder.

I always went by 10% reduction from 308 loads
But I never tryed max loads , or cast with it .

The 356 I have experience with and start my loads at 10% under 358 max, or use starting loads and stop at 5% below max assuming accuracy is there. Mine is a great cast shooter. gianni.
