I have win cases, cci 400's, H4895, and IMR4320 on hand, plan to load them for a Ruger American.

Any info on how they act on game would be nice info to have as well. I'm guessing they could be a mess up close, but have yet to shoot that projectile yet.

Thanks


I'm running the 75gr HP, as they have been easier (and cheaper) to find than the Amax. Using Lapua brass, Federal GM primers and BLC-2 at 25.0grs. Don't have a chrono, but they are shooting groups around a 1/2 inch at 100 out of my LTR. Punched a big male coyote with one last night, quartering in at 166 yds - no exit.
