Ray.

I would like to give the GS230 HV for the 9,3 a try, the increased velocity (compared to 286 grain) and the increasing need for leadfree due to legislation make them particularly attractive for driven boar. Which powder would you use?

Many thanks
Frank

Jaegerfrank,
I used 66 grs- H414, Lapua, Norma brass, and Fed 210 primers...Max in my gun was 68.5 grs.
I suggest you start at 63 grs adn work up. I used some RL-15 but didn't record anything so don't remember the load other than it was accurate and rather mild. I have not played with this load other than the above H414 load at almost 2700 FPS..When I get some more bullets I will do some more work on it..If you do any work with this bullet I would appreciate you emailing me a the below email with that data..

I intended to try RL-17 with this bullet but ran out of them and will have to reorder from GSC..

Thank you Ray. I ordered 100x from their EU importer and will try to get H414 but have R17 at home so I will sure try this one.
