Well all... finally made it to the range today.  I loaded up Lake City 72 cases with 60.0 grains of H4831SC and 178 gr A-Max bullets.  I had a target with two 4 inch bullseyes at 39 inches apart.  It was a little difficult sighting because the wind was blowing the lower bull around a little... but with my reduced sight blade and the rear elevation set to 600, the results were close enough to convince me I'm on the right track, and at 1000 yards, I'll be squarely in the ball park!  The bang was quite sharp, and the kick was pretty hard, but no signs of excess pressure either.  I'll load up the actual match ammo with 178 gr ELD-Match bullets!

Thanks so much to everyone for their help and advice!
