460 Weatherby and Cast Bullets
« on: April 20, 2009, 11:37:27 AM »
I am shooting a VV 17 inch 460 Weatherby as a hand cannon.  Does anyone have some loading data for cast bullets in this caliber?   I want to use 405 grain bullets.  What about using XMP 5744 does anyone have loading data for this powder?
Thanks Charlie

Accurate lists a starting load with a 455-grain bullet of 40.0 grains 5744, and a maximum load of 65.0 grains 5744, for 48,800 psi.
