Strange Tinker , I find myself drawn to it more as well
I have found some info on loads on the net , interesting some of it , one thing was the working
Pressure of the old Cordite loads - 270Gr - 40Grs Cordite = 14 Tons - 320 - ?Grs (most likely 40) Cordite = 17 Tons , I think 303 Brit is 18 or 18.5 Tons ?
Elmer Keiths load was 48gr IMR 3031 said to be hot !
Guys were using 42Gr of IMR 3031 to start & working up .
The other was 270Gr Interlock , Reloader RL15 start at 45Gr work up to 47Gr which shot to the sights for regulation of 270Gr 40Gr Cordite rifle
