This is one of those "my turn" replies. Have a jug of IMR 7383 (Lot 48000 GiBrass). Got it before really reading up on a couple of years ago. After reading it seemed to tedious to play with although I did make up some 200 grain 311284 loads for my M1 Garand and it functioned fine with 42 grains (75% fill) and gave 1,850 fps. Fast forward to today and finding some slow powder is not in the cards. My main squeeze these days is a K31 for silhouette and that is where the slow powder is going (IMR4350 lately). The bullets are J-word pulled M118's and as near as I can see they are Match King 175's due to the hollow points and weight. They have to be deeply seated and I have an OAL of 2.835" for the K31. I did my homework (thanks for all the work everyone!!!!). This is the lot that is supposed to use IMR 4831 data less 15% which would have been 42 grains max. I worked up to 44 grains of this lot of 7383 (80% fill) with the deep seating, the bullet is just on the powder, not compressed though and a CCI 200 LRP. This load ran across the chrono at 2,150 fps, good looking primers and only a couple of unburned kernels in the barrel. My normal load is 47 grains of IMR 4350 with CCI 200's and it makes 2,400 fps. I am already over the recommended maximum load but no sticky extraction or other pressure signs. I am probably at 3.3 cc at this load. I would like a bit more speed but I am not sure it is in the cards at this point.
