I don't have any load software and just wondered if any of the programs have data on it. I was working on a light recoil load that I could hunt with and wondered just how low the pressure is.

I'm loading the 200gr TTSX with 78gr H4350 with wolf and CCI magnum primers. I'm hoping each piece of brass lasts at least 15 firings. I anneal with the candle method everyother loading. Haven't got the chrono out yet, but the load shoots 1/2 inch groups regularly.

Just using the standard case capacity of 105gr, the standard 3.600 COAL, and a 24" tube QL says your running 46,898psi and 2835fps.

The actual case capacity, COAL, and tube length would alter these figures and would be a better approximation of what's actually going on with your particular load/rifle.

Thanks. I have a 23in barrel and expect to be in the low 2800s when I chrono it. 47K PSI sounds good for long case life. It's a shame I'm burning 78gr of powder to get 35 Whelen velocities, but I'm tired of the recoil.
