Help with load data for Nosler Bullets - .223

[BerksCountyDave]

I'm wondering if anyone has the Nosler manual and would be willing to share some data with me.

I'm loading for .223 and have some 50 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip bullets I'd like to load up. The trouble is, my manual and the sources I use online don't list data for this particular bullet. I'm wondering what powders are listed, the min/max charges, and the overall cartridge length suggested. I'd hate to have to go buy the Nosler manual just so I can use this one bullet!

Thanks
Dave

I'd help you out but right now I'm at work and don't have access to my Nosler manual. If no one else comes up with something I'll get some info for you this afternoon or early evening.

That would be fantastic. I'm planning on doing some loading tonight and testing them over the weekend.

I loaded some with BL(C)-2 based on some data for another 50 grain bullet, but after looking at a few different sources of data for 50 grain bullets, there is such a huge spread in suggested loads that I'm only going to feel comfortable using the data for this specific bullet.

Thanks

Hi Dave, I am new to this forum and I have the Nosler manual in front of me.
There are 13 different powders listed for the 50gr Solid Base Ballistic Tip.
What powder are you interested in? My typing skills are lacking so a few powders would be fine.

shitty...

Nosler's site has reloading data for like 15 different calibers besides .223...guess they want you to buy their book.
