I'm about to order these. I have the latest Hornady reloading book but can't fine any data in this pill. Anyone got any info on these or should I use the Hornady data for FMJ on these? I'm using CFE 223 powder, I reloaded some Nosler Ballistic tip, Nosler book tells me 26.0 Start to 28.0 Max for their 55 gn spritzer, I've found a good load at 27.1-27.3 using my Dillon xl650. Hornady book is a lot lower charges for the FMJ 55gn.
Did you look at Hodgdons reloading data? Don't forget you can use a heavier bullets data as well. My Hornady book has info for a 60gr HP.Originally Posted by Greg

I called hornady a while back on load data for these. I was told to use the data for the fmjbt.
That being said, I load 23.1 H335 at 2.20 COL.
Hope this helps.

Wow!! That is awesome!!!
Thanks for sharing that one!!
Thanks I'll use that Hornady FMJBT data for my loads with CFE 223 and HPBT W/C. We'll see how it works. Load data between bullet makers and powder makers is so different for the same weight of pills. At least I'll have a starting point. I'll be ordering 500 of these to start Wes!
