For those of you that have the " Complete reloading manual for the .280 Remington" (Copyright 2004) be very careful. The Nosler bullet load data starting on page 17-21 is for the .280 Rem Ackley Improved. The heading across the top does not say Ackley Improved!!! It only says .280 Remington -Nosler Bullets. The table of contents identifies these pages correctly for the Ackley but the heading at the top of the pages is totally misleading. I made the mistake and loaded up some test rounds which were 2 grains above the actual published max load for the .280 Rem. (Flattened primers and signs of case seperation  ). My advice is to check multiple publications before loading. Unfortunately, I was not able to find much information for Nosler 160 gr partitions with IMR 4350 powder.

Check Ammo Guide- you might find some help there.
FWIW, I use 48.0 of 4350 with 160 Partitions in my Model 70. |
Seriously considering that for mine. Just haven't found the time to take the hour drive to my prefered smith.
