Reworking my 123g eld-m ppv loads - mel - 05-11-2020

So after playing with 130 and 140g class bullets and pushing them as fast as my 123g loads I decided to keep going with my 123g loads

Unfortunately for me I accidentally left my chrono on last time I used it so no chrono data today

My old go-to load was 28.2g of ppv mv of 2470fps
I jumped directly to my 130g load with 28.7g and everything looks good

Shot the 4 Rd group first but had just remounted scope so had to rezero

No sence in continuing tonight without a battery for the chrono

edit
i have a sneaking suspicion the reason i was hurting brass at 28.9 is cause the brass already had a ton of reloads on it , so i did start over with new brass

Watching this one, too. Thanks for working these loads and for taking the time to report!

was hoping to do more testing tonight but we got 25mph winds today so not going to happen at most after work i might go load up the next set of 5 at 28.9g so im ready for the next nice calm day
though i already know how 28.9 shoots

wont hurt to check it again with the 30* rise in temps though since i was using the 28.9 load in 50* temps
