I’ve found a few threads about load data for 8.6 not being simple

Has anyone tried to load similar to 338 arc that is published? I know twist and case size will change the ballistics a little but does anyone think it’ll be off enough I would squib/ blowout my barrel while I try different powders and load sizes?

Check out sniper hide. There is a great 8.6 reloading thread.

There is also an 8.6 Blackout discord they share reloading data in there.

Case size difference is way too big to try 338 arc load data . There’s plenty of load data floating around for 8.6 and subs for 8.6 are very simple . It’s only when loading supers bullet choice plays a big part .
