figure ill load some mild loads to start

finaly got around to droppn some powder in these 220cases that i already had.

ive got some imr4350 left from my 270wsm exsperince, i don mind the powder one bit its kinda like rel19 but worked well in the wsm

anways, on imrs website they have a load for 60gr bullets with 39.5grs of powder. i kinda wanna work up slow so i loaded 35grs under 55vmaxes just to see what theyl do.

im guessing velocities in the 34-3600 area.

the hand primer works wonders. im quite excited about it.

i only loaded 4 rds. if they shoot realy realy good ill load more, otherwise ill just bump it up a grain at time till i get to 39 and see if i find any kind of dramitic acuracy.

Sounds like a plan.

When you want to make that Swift sing, pony up for a pound of RL-15. Tight, fast, clean and easy to measure.
