The 174 HPBT matchkings should work a treat mate. I use them with 41 grains of Vihtavuori 140 and cci primers. Gives a velocity near enough 2450 fps. According to the data from the Vit reloading manual 140 is similar to IMR 4320 Hodgdon H380 and hercules reloader 15. Should be easy enough for you to check the data out in your loading manual. The miltiary specs I have are cartridge MkV111 accepted 1938 smokeless powder load boxer or berdan primed 175gr pointed boat tailed with a MV of 2440fps. ------------- Rottie (PitBulls dad.) “If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons Born free taxed to death!!! |
