H1000 in a 20” 243?

[houser52]

Used in a 20”, 1:8, Tikka 243, 108gr. ELD-M, Starline LRP, CCI 200.

Think it’s too slow for a 20” with a lot of unburned powder, high ES, accuracy?

Worth trying or try something else?

H1000 is the ticket in my 22" tikka with 108 eldm's. Picked up almost 100fps and better accuracy from h4350. Give it a try.

Try it and see. We used H1000 with a 100 bullet in a 20 inch barrel.

What charge weight did you start at?

Can't remember where I started. Probably 44 or 45 grains.

Interesting. I need to try some H1000 I guess. I use H4350 and N555 in my 24” 6 creed with 108 grain bullets. Extra speed would be sweet
