Case: Winchester headstamp (probably Seller & Belliot)
Primer: CCI 200 large rifle
Powder: 48.0 grains Hogden Varget
Bullet: 150 grain Hornady Interlock soft point (.312 diameter)

1.37 inch group at 100 yards.

2840 FPS

Brass is from some Winchester 180 gr round nose soft point I initially bought when I got my 1943 Izshevsk 91/30. It shot 2 1/2" groups with open sights. I put on a scope and worked up the above load and am very happy with it for a $99 rifle.
