Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Loads for 160 gr. Barnes 338 wm.

I have been trying to get info about this bullet to reload. I contacted Barnes and they replied but I was looking for loads so I can use powers that I already have (IMR 4831 or 4350)If anyone was done up loads using these powers please report. Thank you

R15 is where I'd be looking

Thinkin' the 4350's and 4831's will be to slow for that bullet weight in the 338 WM.

If You have a chrono, I'd start around 65 gns. of Varget and carefully work up.

Thanks for the advise,160 gr is probably made for a faster burn and I was just asking before I have to buy another can of power. I will give it a try and see how they shoot out of the rifle. I use 210 gr for all my hunting and I just wanted to lighten up because all I hunt is Whitetail deer and black bear.
