Hornady's manual lists the bullet, but not your powder.
Lyman's manual has a Sierra 180gr JSP at 1.61 COAL, and a starting load of 29gr with 296. Max load is listed at 30gr. |

I found this but nothing for 180 gr with WW 296. I've been reading that WW296 and H110 are the same data. Is this true? |

Quoted: I found this but nothing for 180 gr with WW 296. I've been reading that WW296 and H110 are the same data. Is this true? I don't use either, since I prefer 2400, but here's a good discussion on it. http://shootersforum.com/showthread.htm?p=405947 (Side note: if you see the mention of St Marks Powder in there, that's about 3 miles down the road from my home. No free powder for locals, though.) |

That was good Vanila, thanks. It also addressed the consequences of downloading 296 which I never fully understood until now.

Yes, WW296 and H110 are the same...

I read once that H110 and W296 are the same powder made by the same company, just marketed by Hodgdon and Winchester. Just because I read that doesn't mean it's true.

This is the win296/h110 data from the hodgdon data center. They have a lot good data for their powders on there.

Thanks TeeRex. I called Winchester today and they gave me this exact data. I also called Hornady and their range was 29.0 to 30.0. Mag primer and heavy roll crimp. I need a new manual. Mine is probably 16 years old!
