I'm going to try close to max loads with irons at 15 yards and move out from there.


By seating long, I mean OALs of 1.745" and 1.775" for the XTP and the BB, respectively. This allows for bullet speeds in the 1300s with safe pressure.

I don't know if you can do this with the Taurus.

The OAL will change the dynamics of the load altogether, so I may get the same results with the load you are using. I have not tried N110 in a 1.6" 240 grain load.

Good luck on your search for an accurate powder.
