Universal mellow load passed along to me.

129 LRAB and 41.2 gr H4350
I used 1X Hornady brass and CCI 200s, and found joy with the Montana...

Working on a fast RL17 load too.

RL-26 (48 gr) works well with that bullet, just saying.

The two I load for love the 129 ABLR with 42.5g RL17. They also like a similar load of H4350, but a fair amount slower. I wanted to move to RL16 for the temp stability, but neither rifle liked it.

42 gr H4350 143 eldx Hornady brass fed 210gmm. 2.820 coal. 1/2 moa or better for 5 shots from a 26” savage varmint rifle. 2780 fps.
Been playing with R26 but dang the H 4350 is just lights out in the creedmoor. Ran a pressure ladder with the R26 and got to 3000 fps with the 140 eldm but thats likely over pressure even though the primers looked ok. I think 2900 is doable. Have some loads waiting to shoot over the chrono.

I went with 42 and 42.5 of H4350 with a 140 Accubond. I couldn’t tell a difference in group size because they were all touching. Shot 2 groups of 3 each and then 1 group of 5 each. OAL was 2.775 that was in the Nosler reloading manual. Guess it works.

Nosler factory 120 and 140 NBT were just a freckle bigger group wise. Still at .5” or under.

These loads worked in 2 different rifles and shot the same in both. Same for the factory ammo.

I left the target at the range on the bench next to me so the guy cussing his 270 could cuss some more after I left.

You guys not finding excessive pressure with 42.0 / 42.5 grs of H4350 and 140 gr bullets? Compressed load?

I just bought a box of 139 gr Scenars and have H4350.

Been using factory rounds up to this point and been gathering info before I handload.

Brass makes a difference here.

I use 42.5 gr H4350 with the 147 ELD, TULA, and Horn brass in my FC. No problems and velocity is as expected. That same load in Alpha brass gives ejector swipes.

Thanks Jordan. I will be using 1x fired Hornady brass that I prepped. I will work up to 42.0 and see what velocity that gives me. Mule Deer mentioned that the Scenars should not be an issue since they have a small bearing surface.

With my Tikka T3x 24” barreled Creed, 43 grs. of H4350 under 130 AccuBonds and Sierra Gamechangers yielded the following at 18*F:

AccuBonds with a 2.800” OAL (.060” jump) 2790 ft/sec.

Gamechangers with a 2.825 OAL (.100” jump) 2810 ft/sec.

I’m using Federal SRP. Browning HCS and Howa Alpine Mountain. No issues.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
