I shoot the 200gr Hornady with 47grs H4895 at 2500fps mainly.


That's a good load about .5 grains under max right for the 220?

That 200 gr Hornady load sounds darn close to Hornadys factory 358 load. I think they print 2475 on the box!

My concern with the bigger bullets and 4064 is I will run right out of room in the case and have a fairly compressed load? Maybe not. I like 4064 I'll have to explore it thanks!
