Has anyone else done this? I only pulled one because I was in a hurry to load other things for the next day of shooting.
I weighed the charge and it came out to 43.6 grains. If I use IMR4895, can I work up to this charge? Does anyone have the "Do Not Exceed" charge for IMR4895 and a 168 gr jacketed? The load data I have doesn't list it.
Oh yeah, and the OAL of the factory load was 2.84 in??
