Guest Scotland Rifles Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 ok lads. looking at running h4895 with a 70gr nosler for charlie boy but i am not sure just what weight to start at. so anyone else out there running this powder with a 70gr head. i was running 44gr of h4320 but its a tad slow and i just wanted to up it a bit. thank you. bob.

PeteL Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Bob, What calibre?. I assume 243W?. My Hodgdon manual Edition 26 gives 37gn starting to 40gn max for 3414 fps with a 70 gn Bullet. That should start you off at least. I expect one of the experts on the site will give you more info. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter So sorry Peter. You are of course correct. the rifle is a 20" barreled steyr in .243 win flavour, i would like to think i would get about 3200 fps or a tad more, but with the 20" barrel it may be hard to acheive, its not a major concern because if i ever meet anything that can out run it, we are all in trouble bob.
