The Elmer Keith approach can be exhilarating, I was kind of looking for a bit more base line data before attempting, thus the nature of this thread.
Indecently the National Bullet that I’m using has a wide meplat. This particular style has a 0.330-0.340” meplat.
Will your internal ballistics program accept the 215gr bullet weight? If so what would be the listed max charge. How clean is this powder?

Good question,
Yes there is a step in the cylinder that could be the basis of theoretical specification. IMO it’s the moon clip. But according to the specs it’s the case mouth. I suppose IF I were to use brass at the max case length of 0.898” the case mouth may come in contact with the cylinder. Since I trim at 0.895 or longer down to 0.893 my reloads never quite seem to reach.
