[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 753279, member: 22069"] Thank you, Lefty7mmstw, for sharing your experience with me. What you have to say about the 4350's is pretty interesting. I have been wondering why the Barnes data shows VV N540 as the top powder for a lot of their loads. It seemed to me that N540 would be a bit on the fast side, but you have me thinking that the probable reason for that has to do with load density/case capacity issues like those you have encountered with the 4350's. For what I am trying to do, I don't mind if I my rifle becomes a single shot with these loads. I am trying to develop something that would be useful at long range. Maintaining the ability to use my rifle as a repeater would be nice, but not a requirement. I have other shorter range "smasher" loads that still allow me to use my rifle as a repeater when necessary. You do, however, bring up a good point about throat length. I was thinking more in terms of magazine length myself. Of course, throat length may turn out to be a far more important factor in the final COAL with the 300's. I will have to pay special attention to that before I start my load development. If I am able to shoot the CE's accurately @ 2600, I will be satisfied with that. I just want to see what is possible using the latest components. [/QUOTE]
