What kind of muzzle velocity were you getting with that 34.grn load and the 120 Nosler BT? Just wondering because your loads were way lighter than I was trying; but evidently gave you satisfactory accuracy. Maybe that is the direction I need to try with the IMR 4320 powder. But the Nosler on line data shows more than 34 grains as the starting load (actually shows 43.0 gains IMR 4320 as a start load for the 120 gr BT at 2758 fps MV)!

43 gr in a 6.5 JDJ?! I don’t see that fitting a 225 Winchester case especially seating a 120.

Was getting 2400 fps from a 14” Contender barrel.


Throttle fixes everything. If it doesn't fix the problem, it’ll end the suspense.
