I actually have the Nobel powders referenced and an original load data manual a kind bloke in Australia sent me a copy of a couple of years ago. Took me years to find it. Good powders too I have to say. Amazing what pops up on this forum.

In my early years of reloading my 308 hunting rifle and my old Omark range rifle I used nothing but Nobels #2.
And I have the manual plus the supplement, somewhere. I have searched high and low and got myself real worked up about not locating them.

The Nobels line was excellent powder.

The huge ICI Nobels site in Scotland was one of the biggest around in its time. All gone.
