25-35 win. load with win 748?

Post by hammerman »

Does anyone have a load for 25-35 with 117 grain bullets using win. 748 powder? I emailed hodgdon to see if they had a load and they said they don't have any. They didn't say anything about making one either :( .

I use 748 for most all the other cartridges I reload for and it would be nice to use it for 25-35 because that is the powder I have the most of.

Thanks,

Clayton

I've still got some loaded with BLC2, don't see why you couldn't use W748.
Sincerely,
