Seems like forever since the last time Ive got out to my range.
About a month ago I rolled these loads for testing. Five different charges of H335 in 2 tenths increments (30.6-31.4) 3 cartridges of each. Temp was 65 and elevation is approximately 850
-New Lapua brass .1.515
-CCI BR4
-H335
-Nosler Ballistic Tip 100gr.
-Seated 1.720 BTO 2.263 COAL Ten thousandths of the lands
Test @ 100yds, Remington 700 w/24 barrel and Magnetospeed
-30.6 = 2820 avg. ES = 20
-30.8 = 2842 avg. ES = 10
-31.0 = 2847 avg. ES = 22
-31.2 = 2862 avg. ES = 16
-31.4 = 2885 avg. ES = 32
Although all of them grouped fairly well @ 1 MOA or better and no signs of over pressure the load of 30.8gr was a significantly better group of .54 and I will probably explore this charge more with 10 rounds.
Your mileage may vary. Proceed with caution.
