(Notes)
Wanted a light bullet to keep velocity up. Wanted a powder with strong decoppering agents. 37.3 shot three into an honest inch, as did 37.5. Loaded a few with 37.7 crono was good velocity wise, and accuracy again kept three on a inch dot at 100 yards. Does 1000 fp of energy slightly past 350 yards. Still going over 2000 fps at that rang as well. This is just a hunting load, and is way more accurate than it needs to be considering it is a max 350 yard load.
