BooBooEH Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 H414 (in my Tikka 595), loaded across several bullet weights in accordance with the Hodgdon Data Centre... a very good reference guide. It's a spherical powder and thus meters very well, producing good velocities at reasonable weights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al4x Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 the Hogdon loads can be slightly low from my experience and you are lucky to get near their claimed velocities. My pet load is 37grains of varget which is hellishly accurate but not that quick so does have more drop than I would like. I would guess the load could be upped a fair bit to improve that when I get time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
