My hodgdon manual is not good on specifics at all!

can someone give me a load for the Hornady 100 gr interlock bullet (243) using hodgdon H4895.

Also, kindly tell me your source as well.

Hey, I appreciate this!  It seems as if hodgdon reduced their numbers recently.

thanks

Nosler fifth edition only lists IMR4895 no Hodgdon at all

VihtiaVuori N560 being the most accurate with 42 grains

I will look around for my Sierra info and post more if I can find it

From the Hodgdon online reloading database. Data is for the Speer 100gr BTSP, which is extremely close to the Hornady 100gr Interlock.
