I used that exact bullet quite a bit. My load was a bit below max..according to the books but i used H-414 mainly cause i had a bunch of it(still do) Load was Win case Win LR primer 43 gr of H414 and the 80 gr Sierra BTSP..about 3300 but it shot good out of my Rem 700 and a Ruger I had. Haven't shot it in the Kimber yet but I hope it does good in it too. I have a 100 or so loaded. I also loaded the same load with the 85 gr Nosler partition but that may be a bit near max. Not in my rifles..but it's close

I like 39.7 gr. of W-760 and the 85 gr. Sierra Game King hollow point bullet. very accurate and primers are nice and round, no signs of pressure at all. Groups run in the upper .50's from my M70 Winchester. Never did Chrony them but the latest Sierra manual shows 40.0 gr. as the start load for 2900 FPS from a 22" barrel and the max is 42.0 gr. for 3000 FPS. The load does a numbe ron coypotes without them looking like they swallowed a sick of dynamite that blew. I had a decent deer load many years ago with the 100 gr. Hornady SP bullet but all my loading notes were lost when I moved from Nevada to Arizona. Always wondered is the movers helped themselves. Kind of hard trying to replace 25 years worth of loading data.
