Click to expand... Try 49.5 grs of H414. I use the 120 balistic tip but the load should work with the xxx shock. My best 5 shot group with this load was .053 in a 20" lilja barrel. with a velocity of 3010 ft/sec. I have been working with Varget because it is an extream powder and the H414 is not, But so far have not found a better load. I hope this helps J E CUSTOM
