Paco Kelly's load is 62.5 gr Re 7 with the 350 gr jsp. ![[Cool]](images/icons/cool.gif){kind=icon} ![[Big Grin]](images/icons/grin.gif){kind=icon} ![[Razz]](images/icons/tongue.gif){kind=icon} | |||

Jees . . . I don't know about that Paco load of 62 grains ! ? ! ? ![[Eek!]](images/icons/shocked.gif){kind=icon} I use 50 grains of Re-7 behind a Hornady 350FP with Rem Brass and WW LR primers. This is near max and I suggest starting below and working up. Good luck! Just out of curiosity, what would you need to exceed say 1900 fps for? ? ? | |||

Since I don't own a 450 Marlin as I have a plethora of 45-70's, I'm just giving a load that this guy has used for awhile. He says that he gets 2200 f/s or better. Personally, I don't want a 350 gr bullet to run that hot in either caliber. ![[Roll Eyes]](images/icons/rolleyes.gif){kind=icon} | |||

quote:I think you should check with Paco Kelly again. That is 5 g. above the max. load listed in Hornady #4. | |||
