I think I asked this question a couple of months ago, but I can't find the data anymore.
I have some Hodgdon H-335 powder and can't find decent loads for it.
At first I wanted to use it in the ammo for my Mosin Nagant M39, but the reduced loads using VihtaVuori N110 powder work perfect for this rifle.
Now I want to try it in my Mosin Nagant M91/30 using a 210 gn cast bullet and in my Tokarev SVT 40 using a 150 Hornady Spitzer bullet.

Does anybody have any experience with this powder or point me in the right direction.
Sure could use some help here.

Met vriendelijke groet,

Martin

Martin,

Another site said to use magnum primers with the 7.62x54R and H335.
He said CCI 200 gave a slight delay while CCI 250 did not.

WHAT?????? OVER A YEAR AGO!!!!!
How time flies when you're having fun.

Gary,
Thanks very much for your reply.
I wasn't planning on using the H-335 for reduced loads.
The VihtaVuori N110 powder works perfectly in combination with my 210gn cast bullets in both my Mosin Nagant M91/30 and M39.
I think that's what you mean with "getting away with overly fast powders with heavy bullets".
18 gn N110 is enough to get the 210 gn bullet(Mosin Nagant M39 and M91/30) to the 100 meter target and 24 to 26 gn is more than enough for a jacketed bullet.
I already took your advice and gave the H-335 to one of our club members who reloads .223 for his AR-15.

@ nebrhogger

Thanks very much for your reply too.
I've got a fantastic gun show in Kassel coming up next week Friday.
Besides looking for Mosin Nagant stuff, I will also look for some .43 Egyptian cases and maybe a LEE bullet mould.

I would also like to thank you for taking care of MY rifle.
I expect to have the proper paperwork at home tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
I'll keep you posted.

That H-335 is finally in the right hands.

I know Gary.
You are right.....thanks.
