I chronographed that same load in my Featherweight .30/06 and it does 2560fps which is a lot less than others have stated. By contrast, when I load 57gn of H 414, I get 2733fps with easy extraction and good accuracy.

Is that load over listed max or compressed? Just curious as I'm thinking of getting some H414.


I develop my own loads, I do not use reloading manuals becuase of their custom barrels and tight chambers. After spending so many years reviewing rifles and cartridges, I have not seen a manual that was as close to reality as the Hornady Volume 2.

The other thing is that many loads I developed are for cartridges with limited or no data so I have always travelled my own road.

When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.
