Well I went and shot the 93 Turk again today, and was pretty impressed. Lee 8mm Max sized to .325 lubed with LLA no GC loaded in reformed 270 brass over 10grns of AA5744 WLRP. I did not crono these but should have.
Recoil was almost nothing and quieter than a 22.
I may be able to do better than these as the brass had not been fireformed and no GCs yet.
Heres a 50 yrd target, rest was my atv seat and I was sitting on a milk crate.
The low flier was the first round, I should have shot a fouling target.

I'll bet there was a LOT of unburned powder in your cases.

My most consistent load, so far, in a '98 Turk is 18gr AA5744 with a 225gr. Its still very mild and typically shoots sub 3/4" at 50 yards with a receiver sight.
