howdy,
I am planning on trying this.
550 gr, .512 gc hardcast FN bullets
H414 starting at 95 gr, working up to a good training load. est 1900fps

I WANT 2250fps, and estimate I can get that around 115gr of H414...

I am buying these bullets from Wayne Doubna, and we spoke that these will be running fast, and he will be making them hard.

I don't know what Lube,

thoughts?

yes, I know my practice loads are "more" than the 458 winnie

Jeff,

I used 100 gr of varget with both a 535 gr and 600 gr cast bullet, the 535 gr clocked 2250, the 600 gr clocked 2200 fps. Due to my stock not being bedded, I have no idea about the accuracy potential.

With a hard bullet and a good lube, the speed shouldn't be a problem. The only potential snag would be if you are using a fast twist barrel, it 1-10, as it'll put alot more stress on the bullet then a 1-15 or 1-18 will.

Paul,
thanks... Did you get my email on the feeding?

I am planning on using either rl15 or surplus h414, and try for those velocities..

it's a 1-18 barrel!!!!

yee hah

Jeff,

I never got your e-mail. You must have sent it to my hotmail acct. I have it locked, as I recieved too much junk mail. If you still have my work e-mail, please send to that one.

Paul,
You've got a PM
