I have received my new Mountain Molds .35 285g boolit and am having trouble finding published loads with slow enough powders. The published loads with medium fast powder gives me 3"-4" groups and I know the rifle will beat that. If anyone wouldn't mind I could use some data.

I am attempting to find a load for a .35 Whelen, built on a Savage magnum action.
boolit -- 285 grains with check and felix lube
length 1.145"
case -- 2.500
3.118 OAL
71.5g water capacity to top of neck

The powders I have on hand are H4350, H4831SC, Rel 19 and 22

If its not toooo much trouble I would like to know a max load for about 50K PSI and load for 2000 FPS for each powder.
I have no experience with Quick Load so I don't know how much work is involved, but I do have a lot if experience with the phrase " Take A Hike" if it should be applicable.

H4350: 49/57
RL19: 52 / 60
H4831SC: 54 / 61
RL22: 55 / 63


I know that you didn't ask for it, but when I use my setup for our guns, Quickload likes 42-45 grains of RL15 for a 22" barrel and 59-62 grains of AA3100 for 24 or more.

That gives a great idea where the fences are located without having to run into them in the dark.

I gotta get that program!!!
