Retro Wrote:I don't own a chrono. There were not any overpressure signs. I actually got the recipe off of ammoguide and the 120gr Amax was definitely a misprint on my part. That was actually 33gr with a Hornady Amax 100gr.
33gr of CFE223 under a 100gr cup and core sounds about right to me. There is data for it in Volume II with 34.1gr under a 100gr AMAX.
34.8gr under a 95gr Lehigh Defense Controlled Chaos.
Sneaky shared his load work up with me and found that 34.0gr works under 94gr solid GMXs, which is what I used in 2015 for cow elk hunt. Didn't get any shots, but I wasn't worried about the load after we tested it in heavy timber.
