I load 150's with Hunter. Get 2750 fps. with 22" barrel.

I have used Ramshot Hunter in a couple of 338's. H4350 should do very nicely.

Thanks DrMike I also have a 7-08 so the info will help me also.

The load used in the 35 Rem was 200 gr. factory. He is not a reloader.

This was a baited hunt on the Fort Apache reservation. The day starts driving into town and having breakfast at great breakfast with the outfitter and guide. Then back to camp and load bait onto trucks. Then the guide and I went out to bait and check cameras to see what activity was going...

Took this guy June 22 about 3:50 pm. Nose to tail went 7' 1".

I have an old IMR reloading sheet that show 33.5 gr. of 4198 giving 2350 or so FPS. This is listed as max I have read that 30 gr. is a very nice load.. This is with a 180 gr. bullet. Should be just as nice with a 170.

I have had very good results with 40gr. IMR4350 and 95 gr. B-Tips and Partitions.

I would try two things. Start with your most accurate load and keep seating the bullet deeper. In my 270 it likes a lot of jump. I would also stop cleaning and see if it shoots better as you get some fouling. I have several that shoot great when dirty.

Looks to be a private home

CCI says they use the same compound in 250's and the 34's.

I shot over 70 deer with those 30 years ago.

That is crazy !!

I have shot a few Elk and a bunch of deer with 168 mono's at 3400 fps in my RUM. Has always done the job quite well.
