Barnes 41185 XFB 350 gr.

Looking for load data for Barnes 41185 XFB 350 gr. in my Browning Hi-Wall. Seem to be discontinued by Barnes. No data on their Websight or Hodgdon data center.

Barnes data....

I have the Barnes #3 manual, what cartridge do you need data on for this bullet?

Struck out, neither Barnes #2 or #3 manual have any data on the 405 Winchester at all. I have the old John Barness article on the Ruger No. 1 in 405 Win around here somewhere, don't remember any X bullets being used in it, but will look for the article and let you know.

Thank you. All data points help. Found data in my old Ideal & Lyman manuals, Hodgdon's data page, Ken Waters 'Pet Loads'. Along with Burn Rate and Bulk Density charts, I have enough to get started. Powders I have on hand that look like viable options are 4198, 3031, Varget, Benchmark,4895.
