I recently picked up the new Lee 200 gr. .35 Whelen Mold. The Lymann Cast books don't have any data for .35 Whelen. Anyone have a load that they can recommend
Thanks

Lyman has .35 Whelen data on page 191 of the Cast Bullet Handbook 4th Edition, for 195 and 204 gr bullets. I believe it's also in the 3rd edition (I, somehow, lost my 3rd edition, hence the need for buying the 4th :rolleyes:).


If you don't have the data, let me know which powders you may use from the following selection, and I can provide Lyman's data:
Unique
2400
SR-4759
IMR 4198
IMR 3031
IMR 4227
5744
Reloder 7


And, of course, most of the fast powders are geared toward mid-velocity loads (~1,500-2,200 fps), while the slower powders are geared toward max velocity (listed as high as 2,860 fps).
