Went north of the house the other day to shoot some prairie dogs.

Been testing out a new load for the FireBall.

20.6 grains of CFE BLK behind a 40 grain VMax.

Groups at 5/8ths to 3/4 of an inch and is scooting along at 3650.

Seems a bit fast as I think the max load from Hodgdon is 20.8 at 3550. Might should drop it back some.

Overall, very pleased with this load.

Turns the little fireball into a pretty good performer.

I could tell a big difference in holdover and windage between this load and the old standard 19 grains of R7.


I am MAGA.
