The stuff worked great! I didn't clock it, but trajectory looks like .22 mag...about 1900 with a 55 grain bullet. Excellent accuracy.
Weird stuff to work with...8.4 grains fills a .223 case...which is how that rifle liked it.(snip)


Tom -
Where did you find the data? The Hodgdon website only lists a fixed load of 4.0 grains of Trail Boss in the 223 and only with 55 grain bullets (FMJ) for a velocity of ~1,100 fps.

Pursuit may be, it seems to me, perfect without possession.
