    243/260 laods with vit 140?

    Hi all.

    Any one got any info on loads, in regard to vit 140 ? been searching around the web but not a real lot out there other than manufactures info.
    and would rather get a little insight from actual shooters, good or bad results?

    The 243 will be running off a 95Gn scenar/smk and the .260 off a 120 grain head.

    cheers

    Are you just starting out reloading with this, or just not been getting good results, and do you want to use Viht 140 exclusively?

    hi ,

    good question, very hard to get hold of, my old one size fits all varget, and after looking round and with the problems of getting amercian based powders, vit140 and imr have very similar burn rates, and trying to settle on something to work on for load delopments as ok with the 223/308/30-30 and 303 and looking to see if theres anything I can work round

    N140 probably a bit fast for a 120gn bullet.
    I use N160 with 108 up to 144.
    Also Elcho 17 and Ramshot Hunter.
    You could use N150.
