7.62 Russian with H335 - any experience

[ypmishra]

I’ve seen Lyman’s load data listing Hodgdon H335 powder primarily for 123-grain bullets in the 7.62×39mm cartridge. However, I’m sitting on plenty of H335 and have some Hornady 150-grain soft points I’d like to use.

I am thinking of trying 27 grain. But I have set everything up for a large batch run would be good to get any inputs.

Normally, I run 23 grains of CFE BLK with these heavier bullets, but I’m curious if anyone here has experience or data running H335 with a 150-gr bullet? I’m especially interested in real-world results, pressure signs, velocities, or any tips.





Appreciate any insights!

Was able to find thus loaded 600 shot 100 today. In 16 inch got close to 2000 and in 10 inch around 1800.
