Still it is no real problem to run 8 clicks counter clockwise on the horizontal knob. This load is 35.0 grains of 3031 and it is not super loud.


your 3031 load is a good choice with the 90 TNT....

I've noticed most varmint bullets, slowed down below 2700 fps MV, often start performing like a SP bullet on most light skin game like deer....

And for Ghostman... I am finding it is great in a bolt action Grendal....especially slowing it down in the 2000 to 2200 fps MV range.., closer range stuff of course...

since my Grendal dropped a deer for the season... I'm going to place with it over the next few weeks with Blue Dot, Steel, SR 4759, 2400, 1680, low doses of 4198..... with the 90 gr TNT, the 100 HP Sierra, and the 95 V Max....

I'm liking this Grendal round after starting to play with it.... bolt action once again...
