Im trying to finish off my remaining WLRPs, I have 400 left
For the past two years all my load development has been based on CCIs 250 and IMR4895.
Would you recommend trying both primers thru the load development process?
For example I am using Hornadys 9th edition load data but im substituting H4895 for IMR 4895 (Dont understand why they dont list that powder for 150 grain bullets) Specifically Sierras 150 grain FMJBT ( the one with the cannelur)
44.0
44.5
45.0
45.5
46.0
46.5 - Hornadys Max is 46.4 ( which is pretty conservative)
47.0
COL - 3.250 (Per sierra 6th edition) For #2115 Projectile
Trim - is 2.488 (Lee Hand Held trimmer , mine trims to this length)
Case - Sig Sauer
Should I do a ladder test side by side for exact same load data using the 250s
and go with the best one. I feel like the 250s just ignite the powder better but interesting too see the results
I do not have a chronograph.
