thanks for the QL data for my bullet and H1000. it was close to perfect what i actually saw. starting at the minimum load in Hodgden data, the only data i could find, 64 gave me 2950 from a 25” barrel . Hodgden said...
hodgden data for a 162 gr bullet and H1000 is starting 64 with max compressed load of 67 at 2902 fps. I Always test at the start load and sure glad i did. At 64 using a 2 foot drop tube i had powder crunch and 2950. so, i unloaded the rest of the test loads and started over at 62. at 63.3 i hit...

thanks dr mike and jd338. i loaded two each of 59.4-61.2 with .3 increments using a drop tube, no crunch. all the shots except the first would have been <1” group total at 100 yards and 85 degrees
60.9 & 61.2 all 4 bullets touched . since i’m wanting higher velocity im going to test 60.9, 61.2...
