The above is the standard 30 calibre load I developed on the back of Harris for our 25 yrd range, you cannot go wrong with it.

Bullets must be sized to fit 2 though over groove diameter, gas check or not really depends on the rifle try without first or get a PB version of the soupcan.

We've heard of Moon Base Alpha, but Plain Base? Where Clint Eastwood hangs out perhaps ?
