[QUOTE="stater61, post: 876750, member: 21222"] With a 28" Criterion Bull barrel I'm shooting 140 gr Berger Hybrids at 42.6 gr of H4350 with a Fed 210M primer (which is over the published max of 40.7, starting load is 36.5 in the Berger manual). I got this load from another creedmoor shooter and have read of others using this load also. [I][B]I definitely would recommend starting below published max and working up slowly. I finally hit visible pressure signs at 42.9, your barrel will undoubtedly be different. [/B][/I] I have read and been told that a CCI BR primer is the best primer going for H4350. I have no idea if there is any merit to that but thought that I would drop the charge weight and work back up to try it out. I don't remember length to ogive but I think its 2.200. I know for fact that it will just barely fit in a Accuracy International 308 magazine. It also will shoot 5 in the .2's. At 5450' elevation, it is 11.0 mils to a medium pumpkin size rock at 1315 yds. My chrono shows 2859 average. Haven't figured out how to rotate the pics yet. JH [/QUOTE]
