REDUCED LOADS

[TED BARTKE]

I AM LOOKING FOR LOADING DATA ON REDUCED LOADS SUCH AS GALLERY AND GUARD LOADS. I WANT TO SHOOT MY M1896 BASKET CASE AND PREFER REDUCED LOADS. ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED AND TRIED.

I have loaded 180 grain cast Bear Creek Bullets with from 7 to 11 grains of Unique - see what suits your rifle best these are mild loads, Lyman's 47 Reloading Book has reduced loads for each caliber including the 30 / 40 Krag.

I use 19 to 20 grains of IMR4227 behind a Redback (Yes it is an Aussie bullet) 165 grain cast (gas checked) in a Remingtom case (Win LRP). I have found this to be mild and accurate in my M98.
