Finally got around to picking these bullets up to try out. I stopped these fairly short of my typical loads for 140 class bullets. I usually work up until around 43.5 grains. I wanted to find a load around the mid 2700’s plus or minus a few dew to most of my shots being fairly close at Deer. I wanted this load to do double duty as a hunting and target load that wasn’t too hot. Pretty happy with the results and this powder has always performed exceptionally for me in this cartridge. I have came up with three possible charge weights, so I would like to hear y’all ideas or opinions, since I trust all of y’all vast knowledge on this site. So which load would you try and why? I also had to settle on a .035” jump to feed reliable from the magazine, so that’s where I will begin with my seating test once I pick out the charge weight. This is the third time I’ve used this method and I am a huge fan of it!
