    160gr. reload for 3006

    I went to Bass Pro on Saturday to pick up some bullets. They didnt have much to choose from I found 2 100 pc. bxs. of 160gr Hornady FTX. 308 diameter so i guessed it should work and id give them a try. But i cant find any load data anywhere. Its jumps from 155 gr. to 165 gr.
    So i need some help on findind a load to try out with. I will be using H4350.
    On the load data it shows: 155gr. min-max load 56.0-62.0
    165gr. min-max 53.0-59.0

    I kind of figured of just finding the halway mark between those two for the 160gr. So i came up with min to max load of 54.5-60.5. And im thinking of starting at 54.5 mark to be safe. Let me know what you pro loaders think.

    I have on reloaded for hanguns 38 super, 40 cal. 45.

        Just use the 165gr data, that should be safe.
