Ouch....licking my wounds....
I will see if I can answer....
I bought the rifle as a fun gun...the cases are fun and cheap to make.
I like casting and shooting lead bullets.
The 180gr RCBS is cool looking and I own it....that all.
I have lighter LEE molds but they don't feed as well.
I am not going to suppress it.
I have a 110gr jacketed load for killing stuff.
So I was looking for a load with the 180(just cause I like it) I have tried some loads H4198 and Longshot. I was thinking the same thing about the fast twist and lead bullets...4198 shows some promise...wondering about 1680 and RL7. I had found the Nosler info but not the Accurate...so thanks. I could shoot the standard H110/296 stuff but have never really like those powders in handguns with cast bullets?? so I just steered clear.
Im looking more for a fun economy load. I said 1300-1500fps but Im not married to it. Sighted in is sighted in...so once I find the load that shoots Ill go with that. I doubt I hunt with it unless its a varmint or pest. But its a fun shooter and nice size and recoil is nothing. So far I like it. But shooting store bought jacketed bullets takes the Economy out of it.
