        I did a bit of informal shooting a minute ago.

        One thing I wanted out of this bullet was a HP that was heavy enough to hold together even while making a massive wound channel. These ended up weighing 275.5 with the large HP.

        With the 300-grain mold (drops 306-308ish depending on alloy) I used last year, recoil was a bit stiffer than I wanted. So this bullet should recoil ~10% less, just on sheer weight difference, not even accounting for the lower powder charges it’ll take to match velocities with the old bullet. Should be a winner.

        Anyway, after a great deal of interpolation, I loaded up a few with 800-x, and chronographed them. I won’t mention the load I topped out at, except to say that I was pleasantly surprised at the velocity I got – maybe even a bit alarmed, and I’m reducing my charge for the batch I’m going to accuracy test.

        I also tested some with 2400, all the way up to the published (brian pierce) load of 21.0 grains. That got me into the 1250′ ballpark, which is MORE THAN fast enough for what I want to do. I was surprised at the speed, honestly. That can of 2400 is older than I am.

        May get to do some accuracy tests this afternoon. So far, so good.
