WC246

[canebreaker]

Anyone work with WC246 with 308-150 gr SP. Want to share your load data so far?

I've loaded gallons of it, I would suggest you use old BLc2 data from 20+ year old loading manuals.
Start low and work a ladder up.
Some data used to be on Jeff Bartletts, "GI Brass" website.

Here's two pages from a 1967 Hornady Manual.



And more from a 1965 Speer book.

After posting, to late in the day to change. I meant WC846.
I bought a jug from a gun show reloading dealer for $80 about 12 years ago. I planned to load 223 with 75 gr bullets. He said to use BLC data at 10% less to start a ladder.

Loaded gallons of that also, in 223 with 55 to 77 gr bullets. I still have two 8 lb'ers left.

Is what you have in a unpainted metal gallon can, a white plastic or a black plastic gallon jug?
Talen Industries label perhaps?

Does your jug look like any of these?

 

[canebreaker]

The 842 and 846 are in black plastic jugs. Look like oil or antifreeze gallon jugs.

OK, those were used after metal and then white jugs. Have fun.
