    45 2.1 .312-150

    Went to the range today with 50 rounds loaded with 30,31,32 33, and 34 grains of H-335. Boolets were sized .3095 in Federal .308 cases. 30 grains did the best with a group of about 2.0 inches. The other loads are not even worth talking about. Some of the shots were not even on paper at 100 yards. I'm going to try dropping the charge to 27, 28 and 29 grains and test the results. I also want to try RL-7 and see what it might produce. So far XMP-5744 has given the best results but the powder has burned pretty dirty. I'll figure this out in awhile.

    33 grains of BLC2 and a cci 200 is my winning combo with this boolit in one gun so far. 7/8 to 1 inch at 100 will work for this fella with a 4X scope.

    34 grains was OK

    35 grains was ok but warmish

    30/31/32 grs are next to try for groups... I have established the ceiling..now i need to find the floor... i need a lighter load for the wife, it may lie here somewhere or somewhere a bit lower.
