Loading for 358 Hoosier, 180 gr jacketed bullet. Looking at the data that is floating around, I see loads for powders like Accurate 2230 and Hodgdon H322. In between these 2 on the Hodgdon burn rate chart I see IMR 3031, Hodgdon H335, Ramshot X-terminator, etc. But, I don't see loads developed for these powders in the data that I have. What I'm wondering is, can it be assumed that these powders would be safe to develop loads with, based on the fact that their burning rates fall between those of powders that are listed in the data? I realize that the powder density comes into play, that you need to start on the low side and work up, and also know that a chronograph would be especially useful. Powders seem hard to find, so if acceptable loads can be made with other powders, it may help. Thanks.
