Little help please
 
I need the minunim and max load for Imr4831 and Rl 19,for a 260 rem.in 129 grain bullet,if anyone has the new Hornady manuel can you check it for me?I don't have one and don't want to get one for just one bullet size.
Hornady said they would send me the info last month but haven't gotten it.
Thanks in advance.

www.alliantpowder.com

There's load data for Hornady 129 grain Spirepoints at each site with the powders you're interested in.

Thanks billyb,I have allready checked these sites out,but they don't tell me the mim and max that hornady recommends for their bullets.for instance the IMR has a larger load for the 140 gr bullet than the 129 bullet,I got a load on the forum that was a lot more than the load on the site for the RL19.
I have been around for a little while and rather to be safe than sorry.
Thanks again

HERMAN, if you will e-mail them they will send you the info you need. they sent me stuff on the 7 mm stw . i got from speer, hornady,sierra and i had noslers new book. i have the 260 in i think hornady, i would get chewed out if i went digging around at this time of night . they will send it pretty quick i was real satisfied with them all.
plus it's best to get it from them and have your own copy.you will be a lot more confident.

The fellow at hornady said he would send me the info last month but I haven't gotten it yet.Just a little impatient,wanting to load some before it gets warm enough to shoot.
Thanks

Herman, i'm sorry i have stuff from speer. i wasnt sure who i got it from last night. the only reason i got it was my friend had a 260 and wanted me to load some for him.
Call hornady back or email them and remind them . say you want to go on a hog hunt and WANT to shoot there bullets but you guess a speer will do.<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

soarkrebel,I e-mail them again,thanks.
curious what speer bullets did you load in the 260.The last two years I have used the coreloc 140 mostly,but took deer using the 100 gr partion,and the 125 gr,part.and the 120 gr.BT.The 140 gr has worked the best as far as good groups go.Shot one this yr,using the 140 core-loc at 110 yds in the throat.This is a very accrute round.

herman ,
i never loaded any for him.he was going to buy the dies but didnt. i was going to buy the gun but i all ready had a rem seven ss in 308.i know he killed two deer with it and worked VERY well.
if i had bought it i would probably have tried a 140 sierra btsp. or the 120. i also have developed a great respect for speers grand slams. i took one this year with a 165 gr in 308.deer didnt take a step and didnt blow a basket ball hole. just a shocker.
good luck with hornady, you might also see if they have a toll free number on the web site.
