Not looking for bear buster ammo. Just range ammo around 1100ish fps. But I plan on loading 800+ rounds without being able to test the in the DW(s) he will be shooting them in.

Does anyone see an issue with a general load of 7.5 grain LS load with 200 coated cast?


You will be just fine with 7.5gr of longshot. Should be fine up to 8.2grs
