I am particularly interested in information on 180-grain bullets and heavier, but this is nearly absent from the thread. More specifically, heavier bullets, with cartridge overall length limited to 2.800 inches.
Has anyone focused on "bulk" 180s soft points, such as offered by Winchester, Remington, and Hornady?
Has anyone attempted to use 220-grain bullets, with or without its round nose ground away to create a short (more or less) 205-grain bullet?
And what about loading data for 20-inch barrels and 24-inch barrels? Does propellant choice make a significant difference because of barrel length? I find that propellant makes essentially no difference in Marlin 1895 Guide Gun and XLR barrel lengths with my 425-grain WFNs.
