These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !
15 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 90%. These powders have been skipped.

I am excited to report that I FINALLY took this recently-completed rifle to the range yesterday & my first two 3-shot groups at 100 yds were about 1.25" w/ factory 180 gr loads. This data will give me what I need to get a deer load worked up and be ready to hammer any whitetail within 350 yds come 11/15!!!!
