Depends on what your rifle prefers. I'd start with Vihtavuori N135 or N140.

People are rightly a mite leery of sharing reloading data with others on a forum - that's what loading data handbooks are for. What is good for one rifle might be a catastrophic disaster in another.
I'm minded of a conversation a few years back on another forum where the .45-70 Govt was being discussed. One poster noted that it was nothing more than a giant revolver cartridge. Another poster took him at his word, and loaded up with 55g of 2400, one of the powders used for very high level .44 Magnum revolver loads. The only thing that saved him from dying was a sharp-eyed RCO who was overlooking his ammo box and saw the load data that had been written there.

Ive got "Craig's" Lyman reloading book still here on loan , if you want to have a look there is plenty to choose from.

Hi Colin have a look here too http://www.vihtavuori.com/en/reloadi...inchester.html
Just a quick question, is it worth doing your own reloading? Will it save a lot of money?
