Cheers Dave, got that!

Any chance you could shove Hodgden 4198 with any make of cast bullet through QL for me?

It actually has a good rep in .223, faster than most "rifle powders" and I have two tubs of it!!!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

The Hodgden 4198 I can do but I have no idea which files contain cast boolits as I seldom use the things.

Sorry Dave, I wasn't planning using N310 either.........

You should have a few other powders listing loads for around 2000fps as well
