Hodgdon Reloading Data Site

Not really .. I pulled up 4 lines of data. Had to add a tab in one line and delete a tab in another line. ~15 seconds and I had an Excel chart.

I don't like how it PRINTS. It used to come out in a nice table.

I think it will have some advantages, but what do I know? I am still very much a noob on reloading.

Much, much worse.

Some of us copy the data into excel to interpolate data. Cannot copy and paste anymore.

this makes the new format suck!

Found the solution. After you get the data, select it all and copy. Go to MS word, start a new doc and change format to landscape mode.

Paste the data using the option "Keep Text Only". You'll get good data but will likely have to adjust some tabs to get the columns lined up.

You can then copy the data in Word and paste it in Excel. Still some minor editing but better than retyping the whole thing.

I'm really glad I mined all of the data I think I'm going to need last week, before they changed it. Dropped into Excel and it's pretty easy to find powder that works for multiple cartridges.

Dumbass question:

I see they list bullet weights, like 55 grain. There are 3 choices, SPR SP, BAR TSX FB, and SFIRE.

What do these mean? How do they cross to common available bullets?

just guessing but...
SPR SP - Speer Soft Point
BAR TSX FB - Barnes TSX Flat Base
SFIRE - no clue. This one has me stumped!

I like it.

However they are on crack if they think you can run that much 4064 in a 308.

Scroll down about 2 pages and a full list of bullet abbreviations starts there.

This is the only place I was able to find all/most of them
