Good afternoon folks. I picked up some 120gr ttsx for my 284 but am having a hard time finding any load data. I'm just looking for a starter load to get going in the right direction. I have a few powders on hand, but access to more if needed.
Thanks
Jim

Hodgdon, Barnes and Nosler sites all have good data. Good bullet choice.

I should've been more specific. Does anybody have any load data with rl17 or 4350?

I use Vit N150 or N160 with mine, most accurate powder in mine.
Enough already, just shoot it!

This is updated data that Barnes sent me a few years back.

This is updated data that Barnes sent me a few years back. In my 284, 53 of R17 boots a 140-gr TTSX out of a 23" tube at 3100 fps; you can extrapolate some to your 120.

I'm near the RI border just more south than you. Nearer to the shore.
Starting load V N 150 50.0 gr gives right around 3000 fps.
