Thread: Creedmore load data

Greetings 260nelson,
As Micky Duck said plus you may wish to look at the online data for the Creedmoor provided by Nosler which lists H4350. H4350 is the same powder as AR2209 just marketed in the US under a different name. You will note that the data from Nosler goes rather further than the ADI data. They do however agree that 39 grains of AR2209 produces 2,650 fps more or less. I would strongly suggest that you start at the ADI start load of 35.2 grains of AR2209 and work up 1 grain at a time, with say 2 rounds at each step, until you reach 39.2 grains. Watch for a sticky bolt lift or marks on the case head and stop if you have either. I suspect that you won't. If you can chronograph these loads this will help greatly and validate the ADI load data. Moving up to the Nosler data looks inviting but the 129 grain SST will kill any deer deader than last Sunday's roast dinner (to use an outdated phrase) so there need be no hurry to go there in a hurry. Please ask any questions you may have.
Regards Grandpamac.
