BL-C(2) Reloading Recipes for 7.62x54r

[Recon_Scout]

Searching for the reloading recipes for Sierra 174gr SMK (.311) load for 7.62x54R using BL-C(2) powder.
I had great results using BL-C(2) replicating 303 British militate rounds and would like to use the same powder for all of the surplus guns.
There are plenty of resources using BL-C(2) with 150gr bullets, but I couldn't find anything for 174gr

I checked my manuals and the only entries for that powder are for lighter bullets similar to your experience. Looking at the burn rate it should be suitable, but alas no data. Following for interest.

Go to the Hodgon web site.

Checked that, check all of my manuals, Hornady 9th, 10th edition, Lee 2nd Edition, Lyman 49th, 50th editions, and obviously Hodgdon website - only 150gr bullets shown.

I've always used H380 for 174-180gr loads in 7.62x54r.

I've always used H380 for 174-180gr loads in 7.62x54r.

I currently use H4895 for the loads, I also used H4350 - I'm really interested in BL-C(2) recipes, it really yielded great results for 303 British [Enfield No4Mk1(t)] precision loads (better than any other powder)
