    Does anyone have any load data on this? I've searched high and low. Looking for a hot load with the 88 ELD that will produce over 2800 fps and hopefully good accuracy using H4895.

    2.54" COAL (for mag feeding) throated to be .015" off lands
    30" barrel
    88 ELD
    H4895
    Wolf primed virgin brass

    Any help is greatly appreciated. Even 90 grain load data is useful for me. Or even quickload if someone has it.
     
    Thanks for the info!! I think based on all this I'm going to start around 22.6 grains and work up in increments of .4 to see if I get get decent groups with the velocity I'm looking for. Thanks!
