Ok fellas, easy. I will not shoot it anymore untill it gets fixed. thank you for letting me know. as i said before, i am a student in college. all of my reloading books and data and log books are at home.(200 miles south of here. I will be there on friday though.) So with that said i cant exactly tell you what the load was, but i can tell you that it came from a .243 book. it was about 7 bucks, ive found em at numerous outdoor shops, ex, cabelas, sportsmans warehouse, gander mountain and bass pro just to name a few. its less than an inch thick and a company has taken all the info from all of the major leading brands for one paticular caliber (of your choice depending on what one you choose to buy) and made a small book of it. On friday at the latest im sure that i will have more answars for you, but untill then i can only tell you whats in my head. I dont think that the powder was 4198. I was looking at some old targets i had in my room from last october and even though these were different gr bullets i do beleive that the powder was/ has been IMR 4350. I shot 42 gr pwder with 85 gr hpbt sierras, 39gr pwder with 90gr sierras, 44 gr pwder with 70 gr sierra hp, and 42gr pwder with 70 gr sierra hps. This would lead me closer to thinking (not knowing till i get home.) that my charge was 42 or 43 gr of IMR 4350.
