Did anybody reload for the 30-30 Win. with the 160gr. FTX other than the data from Hornady.
I would like to use Varget and IMR3031.

Here is the last update from Hornady:

I just used data from my previous loadings of 170 grain bullets and worked up. My Marlin has always liked W748 and sure enough it a winner with the 160 FTX's at 35.5 grains with a CCI200 primer. I did try IMR 3031 but the accuracy was not there in my gun. Worked the 3031 up to 31.5 grains with no pressure signs.


Ride well, shoot straight, and speak the truth.
