Hi, I have a type 99 Arisaka in very nice shape that my grandpa brought home. seems to hold a five shot group of 3 1/2 inches at 100 yards on sandbags. i'm going to reload for the 7.7X58 caliber using Redding dies, PPU brass, WLR primers and 180 grain Sierra .311 Spitzer.
I have six reloading manual's and cannot find anything for Varget, RL-15 or W748. I would like to load with one of these 3 powders because I have close to 60 pounds between the three. I do not want to buy another
powder suggested. I did find some data on BLC 2 and will use that if I have to but I only have 1 pound. LOL. Any help with load data on the other three powders would be greatly appreciated. Also I used a Hornady OAL gage and can not hit lands with this bullet style. is this normal?
Thanks
