Greetings,
I found some data, in the Hodgdon 1997 Reloaders Manual, for the following load:
85 grain bullet over 16.0 grains of H110 for a MV of 2356 fps. Sierra makes a 85gr RN for the .30 Mauser/ Tokarev (.308) 7.62x25.
I intend to try this combination. However, I have a few questions that I hope someone out there can answer.
1-Will I run into any seating depth, or cartridge OAL problems, with this bullet weight?
2-As this is a pistol bullet, designed for a maximum MV of about 1350 fps, what should I expect upon impact at 2350 fps.
Any info will be appreciated.
