When the guy did all the trials with the low velocity loads the powders he were not bothered by position sensitivity. It something to do with powders and how they ignited. Read the site don't just start loading. You will have a better understanding of the science behind it. So try it or don't.

There are no fillers. If you follow his loads and don't deviate you will not have any problems. I looked the loads for the 400gr bullets he recommend the W231 so I started with the lowest load. 11grs gave me a 1" group at 50 yards.

Javelina 816yrds. 6.5 CM Berger 130 OTM. It did take 2 misses before I walked it in.

http://www.gmdr.com/lever/lowveldata.htm The guy that did this site took a hard look at the old military low velocity loads. Then he did all the math involved to insure the loads were safe. Read the site look at the data he has put out. If you are going to use low velocity loads Don't go over...

If you want cowboy loads for the 45/70 take a look at http://www.gmdr.com/lever/lowveldata.htm I use Winchester 231

My Marlin 1895SS with a 22 inch barrel with H322 and Hornady 350 RN gets 1 inch groups at 100 yards at 2041 FPS.

I have 2 6.5 creeds one is a custom with a 26" barrel. The other is a Ruger American Predator both shoot sub MOA with 143 ELDX. Hornady cases 42.3 hrs of H4350 with a COL of 2790.

I had Danners slipped and fell ever time I wore them. They also leaked from day one. A year ago I bought a pair of Lowas made in Germany. No leaks and no more slipping.

The bullets I had for sale are spoken for.

I have a full box of the 175ELDX's. I bought them then decided I not to use them because they need at least a 8.5 twist. I would be willing to let them go. PM me

I was cleaning my Dad's 52 year old Remington 700 ADL in 30-06. I have just received my order of 166 shock Hammers and wanted to get all the copper out. So I grabbed my bore scope and the picture tells all. I scanned the rest of the barrel and everything looks good. Should I continue or not?

Thanks for the help. I took zr600 advice and called Hammer seems like the H4350 is the way to go. Ben

I just drew a Arizona rifle elk tag. I want to use my Dad's 30-06. I got the rifle many years ago after he passed away and I never hunted with it. Just ordered a box of 166 shock hammers, but I can't find what powder to use. I have H4350, Varget, Big Game, REL 17. Any ideas what powder would be...

Savage hog hunter 223 rem.

Hornady 11th edition lists 150 and 155 bullets with H4350 at a max load o 61.6grs COL 3.210. Remember that's with hornady brass.
