Well done POP, how do you find the recoil on your #1? I had a .375 & though it kicked abit. I had it magna-ported & that seemed to help keep the scope out of my face. 
You can definately feel it....but then again I shoot a 378 WBY....

MARK H. YOUNGPOP,
My load:
350X
71GR. H4198
W-W cases
Fed 215 primers
Actually I told a lie about the velocity. It was 2540fps not 2550fps. Sorry! I don't have a notation about OAL because X bullets tend to varie in length. Just seat them one caliber deep in the case and play with OAL from there.
I'd probably start that load at about 65gr. and work up.
Good luck,
Mark
