Imr 8133 load data

[Orange Dust]

Be careful on starting loads. I got hangfires and high pressure with book starting loads and 8133 in my 28. As charges rose it behaved really well. I am going to try it in my RUM when I run out of Retumbo. I really like it.

For another example, I am loading 78 gr. 8133 behind a 180 Berger VLD in .300 PRC with no noticed pressure signs.

Here is a link to 8133 on Hornady website:

IMR Enduron® 8133

IMR Enduron 8133 is the slowest burn rate in the Enduron family. Loading density is perfect for magnums, contributing to superb uniformity. This is a true magnum propellant yielding outstanding performance in 6.5-300 Weatherby, 264 Win Mag, 28 Nosler and 300 Rem Ultra Mag, among other...

You can scroll down to where cartridge and bullet weight are selected - would not let me create a direct link.

For some reason, the site is kinda flaky from my phone and I could not choose just any particular bullet with that cartridge, but was able to find data for 180 & 220 gr. in 300 RUM here.

that'd be seriously low power your 300 prc...I'm loading 79 compressed behind a 225 grain eld in my 300 win mag. Must be burning filthy!

It's about mid-level by the book and shot good groups - old school here. If all goes well, a friend is going to provide a chrono and we'll get some ladders done for 8133 and RL26 tomorrow.

Anyone check speed on the 8133 ?

 

[wasskeet]

Thanks for the great intel. How do you find the recoil on the 300 PRC?? I am considering a build for LRPS but do want a long barrel life and recoil that be managed over 30-50 rounds per day

It's not as bad as I thought it might be. But I do have a fairly heavy rifle and brake on it. Compared to a Benelli SBE with full bore 3 1/2" shells - it is gentle.

If all goes well tomorrow, I'll have some speeds for you out of a Bergara 24".

 

[wasskeet]

Okay, here are .300 PRC speeds w/ 220gr Hornady ELD-X seated .020 off 3.615 OAL
via a MagnetoSpeed - this photo shown is IMR 8133 data. All was good right to book max. 79.0gr - very faint ejector marks at max.

Thans looking forward to the Velocity and Target Data

 

[wasskeet]

Here's nine-shot to max. load by book w/ RL26. No pressure signs at max with RL26. Below are a couple of groups with 205 Berger Elite Hunter - showing promise .020" off. Going to play with jump a little more.

Anyone seeing 8133 around or online? I've been checking the regular places almost daily.

Earlier this year it was showing up, but haven't seen or heard of any for a couple months now.

I found some in hodgdons site a few weeks back. Looking to try it in the 30 nosler. Since rtumbo is impossible to find

 

[lovespre64]

I would like to load a 180 in my 308 norma but can't find load data for 8133 . I have tried the 30-338 data but nothing for the 180 just bigger bullets. Any help would be appreciated
