    Load reference for Armscor 62g FMJBT

    Ok I did do a seach and pretty much came up blank. I did find one post that gave load data for Armscor 62g fmjbt w/c using 748 for 223. However it did not mention the reference which I would like to have.

    I would like an online reference but no luck yet. Did not see information on Hodgens online reference material.

    My 3 old loading manual refernce books do not have any information on this bullet.

      That's the one I saw but I did not see the reference manual or book it came out of. Is it somewhere else in the post, as I did not see it.

        I looked at all my usual sources and no luck for 62 grain FMJ

          You can use 68 grain load data and you'll be fine.

            I loaded some Sierra 69g fmjbt w/o cannalure and some Nosler competion same weight and same configuration. I used 26.2 grains of 748 with OAL of 2.260.

            That much of 748 seem high for a 62 grain bullet.

            Am I over analysising this?

            I went ahead and loaded five with 23.3 grains. That's rather low I should be ok so long as they exit the barrel.
