As much as I'd like to experiment with Varget and other powders, there is literally nothing in stock in my area. I have a decent supply of H4350 and nothing else appropriate, so I guess I'll have to leave it at that for this hunting season. I would have liked to work up an accurate load at closer to 2900. But really, a 127g Barnes LRX at 2820 fps will be devastating on deer and plenty flat shooting at the distances I'll encounter. 44 grains is no longer compressing in my fireformed cases.
