'Annapolis' - FWIW & because you asked - I have had good performance using 165 gr. Speer and 168 gr. Sierra Match Kings in .30-40.
I have started with 36 grains of IMR-4895 working up to 37 grains, W-W Large Rifle primers, cases Neck-Sized, and bullets seated to a OAL of 3.105". I have also used the same projectiles with 40 grains of W-W 748, (because I have 7 pounds of the stuff!), with favorable results. |
