I have mentioned before how much H-4831sc I put under a 140 NBT, but you have to get a very old Reloading manual before you can even get close to the charge weight.

With my Savage, the bolt handle gets hard to lift above 71.5 grains, however the groups do open up before that. As mentioned, approach max loads cautiously.

Tried H-1000 , it just did not pressure up with out compressed loads.

Win magnum primers in win brass, just the right amount of H-4831sc under a 140 gr Nolser Ballistic-tip. And filp the carcass so the zipper is down-hill when you quarter your elk. There a little on the runny side when you first open them up!


Clinging to my God, and my guns!
