.50 Beowulf load data ? anyone?

[fabguy]

I am looking to start reloading .50 Beowulf, and was hoping someone has some tried and tested "opinions" as to what they are doing with their reloads.
Thanks
( I used opinions because I know some people don't like to give advise on loads)

Here is AA published data:

I use AA's published data but was wondering if anyone has used Unique powder. What got me thinking about Unique is the Lyman manual has Unique loads for the S&W 500 for a reduced load-I know its a pistol...But if you compare case volume, they are very similar. Anyone with Quick Loads want to check this? (325grn hollow point)

Did you try any of the load data offered directly from Alexander Arms?

I am going to try it out this weekend. Hodgdon Lil Gun, LPM primers, and hornady XTP 350 gr. Projo's.
waiting for the barnes 325 gr hp to show up and gonna try those next..

dumb question cause I don't reload for semi-automatics, only real guns. Don't you have to worry about the bolt not cycling for reduced loads?

If you have ever fired one of these... I think reduced loads will still cycle that bolt.
