Im using the Saeco #270 a 140TCGC with 28.0 4895 and a dacron filler in my Rem. 700, gets me 1¼ to 1½ 5 shot groups @ 100. Haven't tried them on small game, but then it doesn't take much for SG.

Ditto the H4895. I was loading 25.0 grains over the 140 TCGC and dacron, getting real good accuracy out of my Howa 1500.

Bullet 280473  Powder 2400  Charge11.5 Case mixed Primer RWS LP Acc 51/2"  100y 1 1/2" 10 shots 25Y

Bullet 280473  Powder 4756  Charge 7.9  Case Rem  Primer CCI 200 Acc 1 1/4   50Y

Bullet 280473  Powder Red Dot Charge 6.0  Case Mix  Primer RWS LP  Acc 3/4" 10 shots 25 Y

Bullet 280473  Powder Red Dot  Charge 4.5 Case mix Primer RWS LP  acc 11/16 25Y

Bullet 280642  Powder 2400  Charge 14.4 Case LC  Primer WLR  acc 3/8" 25y

I have more, most of these were put together in search of a load that will shoot to a place in scope retical that is on at 25 y without changing the scope settings. Most of these shoot pretty close if you use the upper post in my multiplex. When I got older and wiser and just loaded up one bullet of each different load and tried that, and then did further work on only the ones that were promising

WOW!! just the info I needed.  You guys made my day,  Both bullet molds I have, take gas checks which at the moment I have none.  I still don't have a sizing die yet- will order that with gas checks soon.  Will be using these in a rem. 700.  Well back to casting more bullets, I hope to have 500 of each style before sizing and lubing.  will post results when done testing.  Thanks to all, bill439
