Finished working up a load for the Enfield No4 Mk I, a Lee 312-160-2R over 18.5 grains of Alliant 2400 shot the best out of a ladder from 16 to 19 grains. Super easy and cheap plinking, hardly works the brass it seems.
I also assembled a ladder of Lee 405 grain thumpers for the 1895. Sitting over ~40-42 grains of H4198. Roughly 16 BHN, cast with 92-6-2 alloy.
I had decent success with IMR4198, but moved over to Hodgdon for the advertised temperature stability (and the 8 pounder was staring me down). Push comes to shove I'll have good recipes for either.
