Mike. I best data I have says you are pushing that bullet 200-400 fps. faster than you should be pushing it with any powder currently availiable.
<br> In other words, it's too hot-period.
<br> Factory ammo rarely reaches 2400 fps. 2300 fps. and maybe some change is the best it ever does.
<br> If you are using a lever action gun, either a Winchester, or a Marlin, I'd say find another powder, or load, that is where it should be. Heck, if that powder shoots well there, it will probably shoot well at 2200-2300 fps. as well.
<br> Be carefull, and good luck. E
