Hello has anyone had luck with this bullet in 7.5 twist ? I worked up some loads with 4350 and it didn't group so well. I pushed it up around 39.5 grains and it grouped in the 3/4" range. The same gun shoots 75 to 107's great with varget and h4350.
Thanks
 
Thanks thats what I was thinking just didn't want to push it. I see some posting data buts its the DTAC bullets not VLD's ?
 
Just keep an eye out for pressure and work your way up. I'm betting somewhere around 42 grains you start seeing what you want.
 
If the weather is good Monday I will try some more powder and post results. I went slow and had no pressure signs to that point. One hundred yards is my max range right now do you think that would be a issue ?
