    450 Bushmaster with Unique, HS6 or 2400 powder or ANY proven medium loads

    Greetings Gents,

    I haven’t started loading for the 450 Bushmaster yet but was wondering what you guys have as proven loads. I am interested in medium loads. Maybe 1500-1700 FPS with 300 grains or less boolits.

    I am shooting them from 2x Savage Bolt actions so cycling an AR is not a factor.

    1.5 MOA is the goal.

    If you don’t mind sharing your proven loads. Share the following:

    Boolit or Bullet
    Firearm
    Velocity estimated
    Powder and charge
    COAL
    Group size

    Thanks in advance.

    Bluejay

    5744 & #9 have been best for me. RARR 16” 50&100Y

    4227 load took a bit but hit 1900 MOA ACCURACY with a 457191 Lyman bullet.
