Data needed: 300 BLK 130gr cast GC

[three50seven]

I ordered some bullets from gtbullets.com to try out in my Ruger American .300 BLK. They are a 130gr gas-checked HP. Does anyone have a source for .300 BLK data for cast bullets in this range? Looking for supersonic, not sub. I have been loading the 125gr Hornady SST over a max charge of H110 or Lil'Gun with good results, so I'm thinking a lesser charge of either of those would be a good place to start.

Here's the link if anyone's interested:

Personally, I'd start with M1 carbine data for the Lyman 130 gr. plain base bullet and work up from there. Powder capacity is similar and the bullet weight is the same. M1 carbine is rated at 40,000 psi so you shouldn't go over pressure even with the max loads.

Start load data for 135gr, work up from there. Hornady load data for H110.

Jim,
Sorry but you will not get subsonic data for 170gr, 180gr and 200gr bullets. The minimum amount of powder needed will still produce sonic velocities.

300 AAC BLACKOUT (Subsonic Loads)
Barrel: 16" ¦ Twist: 1-10" ¦ Primer: WIN WSR ¦ Bullet Diameter: 0.308"
Case: REM ¦ Max Case Length: 1.368" ¦ Trim Length: 1.358"
Accurate 1680

Bullet weight: 230 grains.
Start load: 9.9 grains (ca 975 Fps). = Subsonic
Maximum load: 11.0 grains (ca 1100 Fps) = Subsonic

Thanks all, that gives me some place to start anyway. I plan to use H110, so we'll see how it goes!

Hodgdon is usually the first place I look, but I haven't been able to get the site to load properly the last few times I've been on there...anyone else having that problem?
