Try 40.5 grains!

Try 40.5 grains!

I've shot 41 and 41.5

Did you try these loads and find better results with 40.5?

My 41 load was worse that the 41.5

@Pistolpete28 @Sako300 what COAL did you end up with?

 

[SloppyJ]

Let's do an 88gr thread too. Just took measurements last night on two fresh barrels.

Thought it would be nice to have some data in one spot.

If adding data include cartridge, brass, primer, powder, bullet jump and other pertinent info.

I’m thinking of your adding more data as we go maybe edit your original post to include it to try to keep thread from getting too cluttered and needing to search while thing for info.

How’s your brass look at 41.5? Seems likes that’s getting near “spicy” levels

 

[Matt5266]

Perfect. It was virgin brass. No marks or swipes. Primers are not flat either. No stiff bolt lift. I could probably step on it a little bit more. I don't think that will help my groups though

Tried Grand today with the 107s no LD just went under max (no PSI) to see what it might do and it was slower than I expected. Then did a follow up with H4831SC and Hunter because of some chrono issues with previous tests.
107TMK, Hornady brass,Fed215 primers, 2.80 coal, 6CM, 16.5” PBB 7.5twist.

Alright, finally sumthin promising out of the 107s in my 18” Tikka, 7.5 twist, 6 ARC. Bout the 5th powder I’ve tried. 3 times fired Hornady brass, BR4 primer, 2.400” COAL, 1.475” trim length, 3-4 thou shoulder bump, 29.7 grains Staball Match powder. Very slight primer cratering only pressure sign. Probably back powder off 2/10ths and run em if groups hold up. If I leave it alone can run a + 1/10 correction factor for QD out to 600 where it’s still hitting 1890 fps at my DA. Very low ES/SD is icing.
