30 Nosler Load Data & Ballistics Calculator

Estimate chamber pressure and muzzle velocity for the 30 Nosler with the free, in-browser MyLoads internal-ballistics simulator. The figures below are illustrative estimates from a physics model — not a recommended recipe. Always cross-check a current published loading manual.

30 Nosler reference

Maximum average pressure (MAP)65,000 psi
Nominal case capacity89.0 gr H₂O
Groove / bullet diameter0.308 in (7.82 mm)

Example simulation illustrative

Bullet
Barnes .308 168 gr TTSX BT
Powder
Accurate MagPro
Charge
77.7 gr
Barrel
24 in

Muzzle velocity

2,845 fps

Peak chamber pressure (interval, ±10% burn-rate)

37,599 – 50,243 – 64,058 psi

nominal is 77% of the 65,000 psi maximum average pressure

Illustrative example — every figure here is an estimate and can be wrong. Always consult a current published loading manual, and never trust these numbers on their own.
