"Bear in mind that almost all of these loads unless you see a work-up progression shown are what the reloader considered max in his gun. He stopped for a reason. Think about this. So start 3 grains of powder lower than the loads listed here and carefully work up using standard safe reloading procedures."
Hope this helps.
If I started that low from some of the loads listed here, my gun wouldnt even cycle.
I used up some arcomp with several 120 grain hpbt bullets and always ended up in the 28 to 28.4 grain range. For a safe load that gave great sd/es numbers and adequate to great groups while providing a proper cycling gun.
