Without wishing to confuse the OP where do you get load data for TR140?
Do you just use N140 starting loads & work up or do they publish their own data?

What rifle are you going to shoot these loads in?
What club do you shoot with?
Which ranges do you use?
Answers in separate posts please!

Aye,
That's why I'm called Stuck
Didn't realise TR140 was included on Quickload, where would I find that powder listed? (i.e. N140 is obviously in the Viht file)

I've only ever shot rifle at Bisley (I'm only 20 mins away) but have shot pistol at Coppens shootingsport in Knokke-Heist Belgium a few times. Really must go back, the Mrs loves the chocolate!

as you already go to Bisley, just pick up the powder and load tables from the importer, he lives on the camp.

I have never had any luck finding re loading data for T140 or finding any body that sells it in my neck of the woods.

N140 loads are a good starting point, the guy who imports it is Nigel you can get him on commonside(at)compuserve.com he is very helpful and can normally email you tables

Unfortunately I have never been able to find any body in the Area who sells T140.
