    Books with 300 Blackout Loads for Cast? 311365 NOE

    I have a 200 grain NOE that i use in Garand and would like to use in with 300blkout
    Any pet loads or books that would have some load data for cast in a 300blkout?

    I'm subsonic (chronographed) with 9.3 grains of IMR4227 behind the Hornady 208 grain VMax. Cast bullets generate less pressure and the bullet is lighter. I have a book says 10.3 is subsonic- not in my rifle. Basically figure any load safe for jacketed bullets is safe with cast bullets of equal weight or slightly lighter..

    You won't find any cast loads in any of the manuals (to the best of my knowledge). The newest Hornady book has the most loads for the BLK in one spot I've seen to date. They tested on bullet weights from 110 up to 225gr. It would be a good starting place.

    I have that book on the way as of 3 days ago since my 8th did not have any and looks like the 9th does. Thanks

    The 8th does have 300whisper data in handgun section. I believe it's all supersonic loads though.
