    Anyone load leadfree...

    I just got some Hornady GMX 165gr .308 (30 06)
    And some Barnes XPB .429 225gr (44mag)

    Barnes sent me some load data for their XPB and W296.

    I am wondering if anyone has used Varget with the 165gr GMX ?

    Thanks.

    You can use the normal data for the GMX bullets.
    A 30cal will reach out and touch them. A 50cal will kick their butt.

      Divernhunter - Thanks for the info.

      I did get an email responce from Hornady today -
      for a Garand safe load "Varget: 40.3gr to 47.0gr COL: 3.240” Winchester WLR primer".

      Cheers.
